Prince of Lies [COMPLETED] by rdiamond89

What would happen if Prince Charming married the Evil Queen? Only Frederick is anything but a noble fairy-tale prince. He's a power-hungry general with an unrelenting obsession of being the next King of Thescan. But before becoming the king, he must commit treason against his uncle, a madman who uses his ability to see into the future to thwart every assassination attempt on his life. Frederick's plans to seize the throne are expedited after losing a battle against a rival kingdom, and he must do anything to secure an alliance to protect his people-even if it means proposing to a monster. He marries Queen Arabella, the Widow Queen, a blood-thirsty vampyre who earned her name by brutally murdering all her royal husbands, making him her next target. He will use her to free his kingdom from the threat of invasion, overpower his uncle, and secure his throne once and for all. Only Arabella isn't easily influenced by Frederick, and he must prove himself a worthy ruler, warrior, and husband before she deigns to help him. But marriage with the Widow Queen will turn into a war of wills and dark desires. He will use love as a weapon. She will treat love like a game. Only one of them can have what they want. Frederick must manipulate the affections of the most dangerous woman in the land to stay alive, then kill her before she has the chance to kill him. But as he gets closer to securing everything he's ever wanted, an ancient evil will make itself known. He'll be forced to make irrevocable decisions, and one important question will stand between him and the Throne of Thescan: will he really do anything to become a king?

When Arthur Met Guinevere by Rubberduckz84

Every king needs a queen, or so they say. Arthur has only just defeated Vortigern, so finding a queen is the least of his worries. No, first there's the long list of wrongs that must be righted, as well as rebuilding Camelot almost from the ground up. But it would seem Fate has other things in mind when his men come across the most fiery of prisoners kept high in one of Camelot's towers. A prisoner who would very much like to return to her own domain, where she is set to rule in her own right. The last thing Guinevere wants is to be wooed by a king. Especially one as ill-mannered and uncouth as Arthur. Even if a part of her does find him entertaining and so very refreshing. Fanfic based on "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword."
