My life began to go down a path that I, nor anyone really, thought was possible. It all began in 1897 when I lived in with my older siblings in our family's ancestral home in Regalea. But to be fair, my life was never normal by any account, not even by the wealthy standards that the families of Regalean nobility are held to.  

How could it be normal? 

How could I be normal? 

The only expectations I ever had for my life was to go through life without embarrassing my father and mainly staying out of my brother's way, as my father trained him to become the next Lord of Rosenburg.  

I was only expected to be the spare, the second choice son. And I was okay with that. I didn't want the power or the title the way my brother wanted, I didn't even want it in general. My father was just happy to have a son like my brother, who was ambitious, daring, and charismatic, to pass the lordship to once he retired. 

But that's not what happened. 

What happened was that my father died and my brother made sure to kill him twice by burying my father's legacy to "the ash heap of history." My brother had always been overly dramatic, my mother used to say that it was genetic. 

Then came a rebellion that ballooned quite quickly into a full-blown "death to the king" revolution that did eventually see to the death of the king, as well as the queen, and the majority of the aristocracy, including my brother. 

This, however, was not what killed my sister. A completely different, but equally tragic event took her life. Leaving me without the only family member who cared for me and with the legacy of our family. 

A legacy that no one wants. 

A legacy that was built on the corpses and the blood of so many innocent lives. 

A legacy that resulted in the deaths of so many people, including my sister, and my father, and my brother. 

A legacy that I must bear.

I didn't want this, anyone could've told you. My brother, Asia, my brother's girlfriend Miria. They all could've told you just how much I didn't want this. I just wanted to go back home, I was perfectly fine living in secret, hiding away underground, staying out fo as much trouble as possible. Even though Alex, Michael, and Asia made enough trouble for all of us. And even more so after Alex and Asia's bad break up. So yeah, I was fine with it all. But now... Everything was different. I had, a, huge, home. I had to learn what it was being an indigo. Had to study my so called people, my so called race of indigo. And what happens? Brooklyn does eventually come to me, does eventually tell me some prophecy that tells me to do something, and I apparently can't refuse. If I do, well, then apparently my so called kin could die. The name is Qassianne, but, never, NEVER, fucking call me that. It's Qassie, learn the name, live the name, love the name. I've been on the run with my twin brother for almost six months since they came out with that new law and everything has been steadily going down hill for us. I'm fine though, loving the wildlife, quite literally. I'm enjoying living with my brother in the forest trying to make our way to Washington D.C. although he thinks we should be traveling through the city more. And, I'm like, no. Two vastly different worlds, yet both souls of fire, yet both connected more than they realize, yet both have a story to tell. Prepare yourselves, because when a Phoenix of old, meets a Kitsune of old, their world will turn into puissant flames. Yet only together, can they become Fierce Of Flames.

Ever wonder how your supposed best day of life will turn into a lifelong nightmare. Two people, two different worlds yet bound by the same emotion, "HATE" and "same loved ones". Marriage is intended to be an eternal bond filled with love and happiness. This was far from the truth for Asmaira and Amaan. Two broken souls entangle in the game of destiny which ended their dream of everlasting love. For one, it was a journey of regret which she has to live for the rest of her life. But why?. For other, he was forced yet he promised to seek revenge for sure., for seeking "Her" place. Who is Amaan referring to as "Her"? Who is this "loved ones" that connects both Asmara and Amaan and why do they hate each other so much without even meeting each other? "Please......." the only word that she could manage to say while trying to get out of his grip and sobbing. "Please......Let..........Me..........Go, " she stammered in between her hiccup, shaking her head with pleading eyes and folded hands. "Don't be afraid honey! I realized my mistake of not accepting you as my wife and to mark the start of our marriage how about I gift you something, " He whispered while leaning close to her ear emphasizing on the word 'gift'. Sensing her fright, he placed his hand on her waist while using the other to stroke her cheek, "how about giving you a baby tonight?". He spoke with an evil smirk. " I know it is your first time and I promise to be gentle with you, My Wife" Note: This is the first draft of the story and since then had not been edited as I'm busy writing my other stories on "Booknet." If you find typos or grammatical mistake or narration is not perfect, kindly ignore since your feedback about it would be of no use as you are reading an unedited story. I would edit it once the sequel to Kabir Hashmi is finished. And yes please be considerate when you comment. First, it's a fictional story and second, it's someone's hardwork. #5 in torment-Sept 2020 #2 in torment-23rd Sept 2020
A HENRY STORY 1: Memories Of The Fallen Prince by AngstQueenRin
42 parts Complete
After committing treason and narrowly escaping death, a selfish prince must learn to adapt, survive, and discover his own potential in the world he never knew existed, beyond Regalia's walls. *** To think it all started with a singular question: "What if the fall in "Gregor the Overlander" wasn't the end of Henry's story, but the beginning?" Well, here is my answer. Today, I invite you to come along on a brand new journey to the Underland - only this time you follow not the Overland warrior but the fallen Prince of Regalia. After committing treason and narrowly escaping death, Henry finds himself cut off from his society, stranded in the unexplored wilds of his world. There, he must adapt, survive, and forge more than one reluctant alliance. Oh, and learn one or another lesson about simple decency while we're at it. Meet new characters and species, and face villains and obstacles as you join Henry on his own personal quest for the curious combination of survival, self-discovery, and, of course, the character development canon never gave him. And what a quest it will be. *** DISCLAIMER: This work is based on Suzanne Collins' "Gregor the Overlander"-series (The Underland Chronicles). It is not recommended to read this work without having read those books. Going forward, I will treat the readers as though they have read the original (there will be massive spoilers, and knowledge of canon characters, events, and universe/lore will be expected). *** © The Underland Chronicles - Suzanne Collins © My Characters - me © Cover Image - me

Back in this day and age, royalty no longer wedded royalty, simply because everyone now wanted to marry for love.

That's not the end of everything; its just the beginning, for even ghosts and corpses still have to hold on to their important earthly commitments they had, before they died. And as I take in my last couple of breaths, nothing else rips my heart apart more than the fact that my own wedding, that is supposed to have me as its bride, goes on without me. An imposter in my spot? Convenient. I hope she's also prepared to fuck my husband on our wedding night too? Don't they know that Chris knows every inch of the body of the woman he fell in love with?

Human Status by DanickaCastro
1 part Complete
I live in a world where I am nameless. I live in a world where I do not matter except or unless I am owned by someone. I do not have rights, freedoms, joys, wishes, or aspirations. I am property. I was born and raised to belong to someone that will one day take me away like the fairy tale stories that I listened to everyday in the house I live in. I prayed every night that a handsome prince would come and take me to live in his castle just like in the books. I prayed that I would be a princess and have a kingdom just like in the books. But I was never told that the books were all lies. I was never told the true reason why I was a well sought after commodity. I was never told that I am not the only one like me. When I found out it was too late to save myself. To think and in less than 4 days I will be taken away from my current home and be in a home of my own. I sat on the simple wooden bed hoping that my owner was nice and kind. I hated to think about some of the stories that I heard about the other girls like me. I hated thinking about being exterminated because I made my owner unhappy. I thought to myself that I would try real hard to keep him happy. I remember the covenant of rules that would keep me and my owner happy. I would need to follow five rules. 1. Always obey my owner. 2. Always be available to my owner. 3. Never talk back. 4. Always agree with my owner. 5. I am not human so I cannot do human things. I wondered how pretty human women were. I was so nervous about my departure I nearly refused to leave my room. I could leave if there wasn’t anything wrong with me physically. I remember the den mother telling me not to do anything that would cause a refund or else I would be exterminated upon refund. My new owner had thirty days to return me. If he returned me and no one else was interested I would be exterminated. I would be killed because it would be thought that I was defective and no one would want a defective product.
