When Prince Rowan's father is killed in an attack on a ride into the town, a special army is put together to fight the growing rebel army comprising of the older generation of guards that had served his father before him.
What he had expected was a band of men strong enough to bring down the towers of Einheim and not a bunch of green boys and the fiery haired lad with insane archery skills that hated his best friend with his guts.
What happens when he discovers the scandalous secret the young man is hiding? And his fear, not only because of the scandal it would bring, but also because they would face a danger that they most likely wouldn't survive.
What would he do when he would have to pick between saving the girl and letting his father's killer go?
Would he put aside his feelings for the girl or would he pick his heart over his kingdom?

Torn between protecting her secret and saving his best friends life, what will he do when they are tasked with getting the King back to Myonmar safely?

What does it take to unlock the path of true happiness? For two complete strangers, it's as simple as a wish to escape their sham of a life. But there's a reason you should be careful what you wish for. They'll be put to the ultimate test to determine how far they're willing to go and how hard they're willing to work for the desires of their hearts. ------------------------------------------------------ Zain Lockheart has always been the prime example of "everything that glitters isn't gold". Constantly living as an outcast in the shadow of his parents' fame and riches, he never imagined there'd be more to life than living in a gilded cage. When he meets Saber Blacke at a housewarming, he discovers a kindred spirit in her. She knows all too well what it is to pretend to be content for the sake of image. All it takes is this chance meeting to send them both nosediving into an alternate reality, where a mysterious race of people are suffering the consequences of a rift-inducing war that took place over a century ago. With Saber as his closest companion, Zain quickly transforms from a burden of privilege into the key of salvation for these people and their doomed world. The goal seems simple enough to accomplish: reunite two kingdoms to restore the world to its former glory. But what he isn't counting on is a pair of intruders, watching his every move from the shadows, hellbent on unleashing chaos and destroying this paradise beyond repair forever. Only one thing is certain now: if he ever wants to return home with Saber, they must first survive the harsh trials and unforgiving wilderness of Wonderland.Complete

The Royal Despise (Completed)
"You intoxicate me, you filled up every single one of my thoughts to an extend that I actually didn't want you to die" Soo this is me but like 3 years (??) later and I have to say I wrote this when I was like 12/13 so there's that andd if you know me irl, pretend you never saw or read this. Thanks and enjoy! This book mainly just revolves around Hermione and her need to save her kingdom, even though there will be dramione moments I can't promise it to be all about romance Monarchy still persists and kings and queens rule the lands. After the war between the kingdoms, each of the kingdom decided to sign a treaty and form a union. The royalty, including the princes and princesses, are...special. Magic runs in their veins, making them witches and wizards. But the people did not fear them, for they knew that both good and bad witches and wizards existed and their rulers were anything but evil....atleast some of time. Hogwarts:- school for royalty, that also taught the princes and princesses how to control and use their magic, was a boarding school that royalty attended from many places around the world. Including the golden trio. When the school year comes to an end and many of the prince's and princesses are weighed down by the pressure of ascending the throne, Draco and Hermione has their own little problem. What is this problem? That is for me to know and you to find out _ So this is my first time writing, and I apologise beforehand for any kind of mistakes I make. Also I constantly look back at my chapters and make a lot of improvements and edits to fill up plot holes here and there. Sorry if that bugs you. Warning:- the characters all belong to J.K Rowling The picture I used for the cover was edited by me,myself and I.

The Other Silver Lady
The daughter of Persinia has been alone all her life, tucked away in a forgotten corner of the imperial palace with her sole maid as she spends her days reading books and attending a mandatory ball once in a while. Life is quiet for the most part...that is, until one day, she stumbles upon a book in the library that predicts the future! And this one says she will die when a lost princess shows up in a few years and all of her siblings will kill her to protect their new, favorite sister! Now our princess realizes that if she wants to live, she has to be strong enough to do everything herself - wield aura to counter dark ones, wield magic to protect herself from evil wizards, and know alchemy to protect herself from a poison-happy consort of the emperor keen on making sure her son is the last one standing as heir to the throne. In an empire waging an eternal war against the darkness just to exist, our princess finds herself picking up new skills, new friends, new enemies, and a lot more importance in the palace than before all while trying to just make herself unkillable so she can live silently reading books. Will she be able to unravel all the mysteries of the world that she wants to, or will all of the tasks the emperor asks of her and the troubles she creates for herself keep her from existing in peace? Will she be able to escape the palace before the "silver lady" of that book appears, or is her death inevitable? Well...Mephie doesn't really care, to be honest. She just wants everyone to stop bugging her so she can finally finish the latest book she's been reading...especially those annoying knights...and, well, everyone else too.
