Soot is a slave at the royal palace. He earned his name from his job of cleaning away the cinders and soot that cover the many hearths of the castle. Though he is locked up at night, worked to exhaustion and barely able to walk  on his mangled legs Soot likes to keep his hopes and spirits high. 

When the announcement of a ball is sent to the staff, Soot finds himself growing excited to witness and be apart of setting up one of the biggest celebrations of the century.

If only Soot could get his mind off of the mysterious knight who had whisked him off his feet long enough to finish cleaning. 

✨

Grimm is the prince, a legendary warrior and the leader the kingdom is yearning for. He's also fighting with everything he has to marry for love and not for political gain. 

When he nearly tramples an angel on a hunt he finds himself falling head over heels for a boy who keeps disappearing.

But Grimm will do anything for his angel, even if that means losing control.

✨✨✨ 

A little bit of Cinderella meets Werewolf (my two favorite things) 

I don't claim for this to be a happy story but it has a happy ending 

This is story is so inconsistent, just let the record show that I have admitted that it is not good, I will fix it one day... hopefully 

Please feel free to comment and vote I love feedback of all sorts

Part 1: Today was supposed to be my fairytale day. My perfect wedding day. I made my way to David, he took my hand in his, walking us closer to the long faced man who would be marrying us. The officiant started, greeting the room full of all my family, all of David's family. Going through the first reading easily. Giving their peace on the joy of marriages, it was bland, but acceptable. Moving along, the officiant announced in a loud voice, "If anyone here knows of any reason why these two should not be lawfully wed, let them speak now, or forever hold their peace." The officiant boomed over the crowd. I was caught off guard. This part was supposed to be just a formality, just a box to tick. No one was supposed to say anything. The world started to go in slow motion as Verity moved behind me a flicker in the corner of my vision. "David, I can't hide anymore." He said. As David's eyes went from me, to Verity, filled with concern. David looked over my head at Verity while he was holding my hands in his. I heard the crowd gasp, before everyone started to whisper. David dropped my hands. The whispers increased in intensity. Making the room sound like it was full of hissing snakes. David's attention wasn't anywhere near me. I looked up to see him looking over my head at my brother. With a look I had thought he had saved just for me, my heart breaking as my fairy tale became a nightmare. Part 2 also complete July 2023.

Isoloses's life as the second prince of Caelestes was misery. He hated himself, but most of all he hated his father. The guilt that rested on his shoulders was suffocating, and the mere fact that he was alive made it worse because he felt he deserved to die for the things he had done under his father's command. For centuries there was nothing he could do to stop what was happening--until he met the High Elf, Naevys. Though it was a strange arrangement from the very beginning, Isoloses found comfort and relief in being Naevys's pawn and the lack of control it granted. Whenever Caelestes was too much for him, he'd run away and lose himself in Naevys, and the comfort he provided. However, with the old king on his deathbed after Ilsa's escape, things suddenly look a whole lot brighter for him. With his father being so close to death, there was only one thing he could think about: 𝙉𝙖𝙚𝙫𝙮𝙨. He wanted to leave Caelestes and run straight to Naevys, the only person not too afraid of him to put him on his knees and give him something to believe in.
