Mature
A young clever Princess of Ascus named Carmine is stuck in a daunting predicament by her father's decree. She wants to escape it by any means, for that was all she has ever done, running away from her duty, her crown.

She must survive the darkest of fiends, some human, some not so much, who want her assassinated.

Carmine must choose her allies wisely, whether they have a beautiful ax, a heart of gold, a blood-stained sword, or skin shinier than the vibrancy of the Sun.

She has to live, not only for her country, but also for herself.

If they kill her, Ascus will fall into the hands of her enemies. But if they fail, they will forever remember her name.

Crimson Ties by HanDakin27
17 parts Complete Mature
In a world where power is currency and fear is the crown, Luca DeMarco reigns supreme. Cold, ruthless, and unyielding, he's built his empire on the bones of his enemies. When Vincent Carmine's debts come due, Luca claims the only payment worth collecting-his daughter, Isabelle. But Isabelle Carmine is no ordinary mafia princess. Trained in secret since childhood and harbouring dark truths about her family's past, she enters Luca's world not as a victim, but as a force to be reckoned with. Their arranged marriage is meant to be a simple power play, a consolidation of empire through submission. Neither expects the fire that ignites between them-a dangerous attraction that threatens to consume everything in its path. As ancient prophecies surface and old enemies emerge from the shadows, Luca and Isabelle find themselves at the centre of a storm centuries in the making. Their union has awakened something powerful, something that could either save or destroy the underworld as they know it. Their son, Marco, born under a blood moon and marked by destiny, becomes both a blessing and a target. Together with Aurora, a child of shadow and silver, he represents a future that terrifies those clinging to the old ways. From the glittering canals of Venice to the ancient catacombs beneath Rome, "Crimson Ties" weaves a dark and sensual tale of power, prophecy, and the kind of love that transforms enemies into allies and arrangements into destiny. In this dangerous game of loyalty and betrayal, Luca and Isabelle must decide what matters more-the empire they're building or the legacy they'll leave behind. Because in their world, even love comes with a price, and some ties are meant to bind forever. A story of passion, power, and prophecy, "Crimson Ties" reimagines the mafia romance genre with a supernatural twist, proving that the greatest revolution isn't in the streets or the boardrooms, but in the heart.
The Flower Longed Death by jezxzica
37 parts Complete Mature
Princess Serena felt she was doomed to live a dreary, protected existence in the palace that she was prepared to end. Even once she inherits the title of Queen, the kingdom of Eden would never cease to protect its flower. Her fear of living a dull life ate at her until her tempting first love, Caius, renters it. He vows to free her of her sorrows with a promise of magic, adventure, and passion. She thought he would bring her the excitement she had been looking for, but joining her deadly infatuation would wilt Eden's flower to the brink of agony. ------------------------------------------------------------------- When he turned his ear to me, I noticed that I could see the right side of his mouth. I've used it as a substitute for eye contact. When he smirked just now, I felt myself tremble. "There's a corpse of my creation at my feet Serena. What makes you think I'm devout to religion?" That explains his willingness to sin. "You're a virtuous woman for keeping to your vows, but I am by no means a virtuous man." His intent to court me is not pure. It's certainly from his heart, but his cause is not only for my love. There's something that he must prove to me now... Whether his will is enough to turn me against my virtues. With each passing day I'm growing more weary that it might be. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Cover art by Erika De Luca on ArtStation This story if the first of a series Word Count: 147,000 Please read the introduction for triggers!

It wasn't really the result I was looking for. In fact, it was even better. I never really thought that this would happen to me. I never believed someone could love, well, me. But they did. He did. And despite his 'reputation', despite his lifestyle, despite everything everyone had ever told me, I loved him just as unconditionally. But will everything stay in harmony? How long will my paradise last for until my past comes back? Will they haunt me? Catch me? Kill me? "Livia? Tiago?" I ask, my voice breaking slightly. If they're here, then.... "Where is he? Where's-" "Gattina." All the breath in my lungs disappear as I turn to find the source of the voice. Half-way through my turn, I can see his dark silhouette at the end of the hallway. When I breathlessly say my next word, it feels as if I can breathe properly again for the first time in over a month. "Lupo." I run towards him without a second thought, sprinting full speed at him, and jump into his awaiting arms. He engulfs me in the warmest hug I've ever felt, entrapping me entirely - not that I mind. I cry in joy at finally being reunited with him as I bury my head into his neck, burrowing myself into him and vowing never to let him go again. Unwrapping myself from him, I look up at into his eyes. They're filled with love and relief, the same emotions I imagine my eyes are filled with. That quickly changes when his face contorts into one of pain. "Cole?" my brows furrow in confusion. He lets out a pained and strangled noise before he drops to his knees, collapsing at my feet. I gasp when I see Viktor behind him, holding a bloodied knife. A/N: Hey guys. Be prepared for dark themes, mature language, mature scenes, and so much more.

"Will you kill me?" Stephan asked, taking a step closer. "Or will you risk keeping me alive, Miranda?" He was so close that I could see the freckles on his face. There were things that I wanted to avoid-this was one of them. I held his stare even though I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck standing up. "Dont tempt me, My Lord," I said, taking a step forward. "If you ever get in my way, I will kill you." ----------------------------------------- Betrayed, exiled, and forgotten.
