Romeo is different. However, in Romeo's case, this difference is dangerous, and possibly deadly. He is the only son of the Lord Montague, and he is expected to uphold not only tradition, but the family name.
After a bloody skirmish and heartfelt threat from the Prince of Verona, Lord Montague and Lord Capulet agree that the best way to end their warring is to become one as a family. Meaning Romeo is now promised to Juliet, the only heir of the Capulet household.
. . .
Mercutio has always been a dreamer, and yet the cousin of Prince Escalus has never believed in love. That is until he meets Romeo, one who believes in love as the Friar believes in God.
The two grow to be fast friends and soon learn that there is more to life than heritage. How much are they willing to risk to not only defy their family and the law, but the way, it seems, everybody has lived for forever.
**This does not follow the cannon story or even much of the plot of the original Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. It does contain prominent gay content, if that upsets you, you do not have to read this.
I will not be writing in the common 'Shakespearean style' of writing.
All characters belong to the great William Shakespeare.

Not your Romeo and Juliet
"What is an adventure without a risk, my lady." He smiles. "And you want your lady to do the dirty work?" I question with disgust. "If you wish an adventure, quit being a lady. " He replies. What if Romeo and Juliet wasn't just an insta love story? What if it had a real beginning and perhaps a real end? "If loving you is a sin, I accept the punishment." He says with utter sincerity. "And if losing you is the risk, I'll resist my affection." I reply. Meet Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet,the children of two family who hate each other deep within their hearts. But unlike the original Shakespeare's version, this one has a plot twist.Terminé
The Arranged - A Whitebridge AU Story
Sonjay Colton, the current prince of his country, Whitebridge, is expected to take over the throne once his father resigns in several years. At this stage in his life and training he knows most of what is expected of him as prince. There is just one thing missing: A spouse to share the burden of monarchy with. To find a suitable partner, several of King Simon's associates put forth their willing and eligible children to earn the prince's hand in a competition they dubbed "The Arranged." Aside from Sonjay's uninterest in the competition, he has another problem with the Arranged. His heart belongs to another man. His childhood best friend, Eli Noble. But his love is unspoken and unrequited, and he believes The Arranged is the only way to move forward from this childhood crush that, unbeknownst to him, may not be as unrequited as he thinks. With The Arranged arriving, both Eli and Sonjay bury their feelings, both believing that hiding their true feelings is the only way to face the future and maintain their friendship. Cover Art: My own original art! You can find it on my DeviantArt: https://www.deviantart.com/smokeyblue09 (The concept for the Arranged was inspired by "The Selection" book series by Kiera Cass. Everything else, including the universe, characters, and the story is my own work. Please do not claim anything regarding Whitebridge and the world of Ancennous as your own.) (CW: There is talk of death, grief, and depression throughout the story. There are mild NSFW scenes used only to progress the story and show the development of character's feelings for each other. Mild descriptions and emotions are used and moments and actions are heavily implied.)
Italian Psycho
Sinner. That's what I was when I married Romeo Valentino Ferro La Montana. Hopeless. That's what I became when he promised me death. Shameful. Sacrificing myself to the enemy. And Addicted. As he slowly seeped into my veins. Have you ever felt threatened that someone was going to strip you of everything you were? Every last shred of faith and goodness? How many of you have felt like this on your wedding day? I was not raised like the rest of my brute mafia brothers. A different life had been in the making for me. Until my family could no longer with stand the ongoing war against the Montanas. The only way to suppress more bloodshed is to make a bond between families. As in marry the Russo's only daughter to the Montana's oldest son. A blood bond. There are expectations out of a marriage to the uprising Don. More like rules. 1. We must produce a son. 2. I had to be a virgin. 3. Cheating and misbehavior has consequences. 4. I would be sworn to omertà. 5. If I were ever to disobey omertà, death was promised. Maybe if Romeo hadn't had such a reputation, or if he weren't so unnecessarily cruel and bitter. Maybe if he were not a merciless murderer, maybe then, I could love him.

The Goals of Love
So this was originally an english project. We were told to write a story inspired by "Romeo & Juliet". My english teacher told me to post or publish it somewhere so here I am. I hope you all enjoy and if you have constructive criticism or feedback, put it in the comments. Thanks! <3 The Capulets and the Montagues have been rival soccer teams for ages. No one knows why, but the teams despise each other. They just don't get along. Kassandra Santos, the daughter of the Montague's coaches, and Delilah Redwood, the daughter of the Capulet's coaches, never really knew each other. But one chance encounter between the two girls will change their lives forever.Terminé
