pirates rebellion tyranny

Larkel Rosetta is not your average noble-born daughter. She's stubborn, prudish, sensible, and far too clever for her own good. Amongst the nobility of Evermath, she sticks out like a sore thumb. 
Captain Cassius Delafour is a pirate, known to the citizens of Evermath only as "The Fury," wicked, fun loving, as handsome as he is reckless. Yet his charming and shallow-seeming demeanor disguises his true, steely nature.
Thrown together to their mutual dismay, it seems as though they will just have to put up with each other - for now. 
But matters are not all as they seem in Evermath, and Larkel, whose family is a staunch supporter of the king, discovers secrets that should never have seen the light of day..

All I Need ✔️ by Chronically-Chaotic

"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.

Hooks Raven{Peter Pan} by GeekGurl101

Raven is Captain Hooks daughter. Part fairy, she is the only one able to match Peter Pan and his band of Lost Boys. Which is ideal because she has a debt to settle with their leader. Eight years after vowing to see Peter Pan at the end of her blade, she is unexpectantly captured by the Lost Boys and taken to their hideout. Stranger yet, her father doesn't come looking for her and no amount of sarcastic quips will get her free. She finds an unexpected friendship with those she once swore to destroy, unexpected love for a boy she once despised. She finds out who her mother is. But when Peters hideout is attacked by the pirates she once commanded, Raven has to choose. Will she fight with her new family or will she be true to her people and fight by their side against those she loves? **A/N- This is not a Once Upon A Time fanfiction, it's based on the original Peter Pan and is set in the 1900s.**

Trained to be unbeatable... Taught to show no fear... Bred to be the best... They called Rowan the destroyer- the Eversor. She was to be a weapon, only needed when called upon, caught up in what was supposed to be a lifelong business she never thought she'd escape. . . until the day she did. Alec is the Alpha of one of the largest werewolf packs in the world, and then he finally finds his mate. She isn't at all what he expected. To him, she's stubborn, hard-headed, fierce, and is keeping secrets from him. He knows she isn't what she seems, and wants her to trust and confide in him though it's a lot harder than he expected. With new problems inching their way into her life, a man she has unexplained feelings for, and a past that's determined to ruin her life, Rowan doesn't know how to win this time. The only thing she ever craved was to be free and now when faced with options for the first time, she doesn't know what to choose. Little by little secrets are revealed, enemies arise, and loyalties are put to the test. All Rowan has ever done was follow orders, but for her to succeed and balance out these new problems, she will have to do something she never thought she could. . . Follow her heart. ********** An Aeterian Story- First Book *Mature Content* © All Rights Reserved

Mercy & Fire by daughteroftMH

Adrenaline pumped in my veins as I pressed myself against the large tree trunk, hoping the darkness would conceal me from my impending doom. My heart hammered against my ribs and cold sweat gathered at my palms and chest. His armor clanked and clinked, scraping against itself as he grew closer and closer... Then silence. "Come out little rabbit." The voice was deep and menacing, and I would've soiled myself right there if I were any younger. I couldn't see very well, but I could see what little moonlight that filtered through the trees reflected off a pale face. His gaze was like a hungry, crazed wolf hunting its prey. "Found you." *** Roselena is satisfied with helping her father run his printing business in her childhood village, but in the face of kingdom rising against kingdom, she finds herself thrown into a world of political tensions, magical beings, and the plot of a God. She struggles to define who she is, what she believes, and who she can trust. Worst of all, she seems to have been snared by a cruel King who can't seem to leave her alone. In a world going up in flames, Roselena can only hope to find mercy amongst the burning fire. Warning: Themes of SA, religion, human sacrifice, gore, and some explicit language. Look for (!) as warnings. * Also available on Neobook @gnbrave. *

Tempest by BoozyBookworm

An unlikely stow-away is caught stealing food from the galley of one notoriously known Captain Sera Wright. When the crew begins debating the fate of the young woman, will the captain go along with it? Or step in and make a decision that will change their lives forever? *Belle French from Once Upon a Time is a main contender in this work. However, it is my take on her character, and she is not the Belle from Storybrooke. She is from the Wish Realm (just go with it). This is a fanfiction based around situations and characters from the show Once Upon a Time. I do not own anything that comes from the show. Sera Wright is my character, and NO ONE has my permission to use her, or her name. **This is a collection of scenes involving two characters, Belle and an Orginal Character of my creation. Sera is mine. Steal her and I will hunt you down. Sera's crew of misfits are also mine. Steal them, and Todd will keelhaul your sorry self. ***This is a companion piece to accompany a roleplay I write with a friend. Therefore elements have been changed. It was written for fun. If you don't like same-sex couples, original characters, or non-canon events, then take a hike, because I can just about guarantee you won't like this. ****This story will contain graphic depictions of a sexual nature as well as the following: Violence, gore, medical practices and childbirth. There will be a warning at the top of each chapter that contains these, as not all of them will. As always, I want to thank anyone and everyone for reading, voting and commenting. The dedication of my readers is astounding and a true blessing. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Forbidden ᴳᵒᵈᵈᵉˢˢ ᵒᶠ ᵗʰᵉ ᶜᵃʳⁱᵇᵇᵉᵃⁿ ᵇᵒᵒᵏ ² by wqndasheart

War is brewing in the Caribbean and Artemis is slowly turning into a female Jack. But there is trouble in Olympus as well.

Brass Skies Vol. 1: The Battle of Chesapeake by JPKent80

"Declaring our Independence From the British One Airship at a Time." The colonies tried to protest once. They were brutally and ruthlessly crushed by the Red Coats. Now, no one thinks of rebelling. Not when the British have forts all throughout the colonies. Not when the British navy controls the skies, their airships looking down over the entire world like hawks poised to strike. Not when the price isn't just death, but the deaths of potentially everyone you love. But in a world ruled by fear and power hope comes from the unlikeliest of sources. There are always those that are pushed to far, who have lost a little too much, or who simply need the freedom of the skies. Those are the pirates; a collection of rebels, thrill-seekers, victims, and criminals whose motives are as diverse as their personalities but who are all headed towards a single flashpoint that will change everything. These are some of their stories.
