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..

Daffodils and Hyacinths (Book 3 of the Forgotten Truths Series) by Contrastgaze

"One small incident can ruin or change a person's life - Now imagine a storm," Dusty winds spit at Sun'Tribe and her people. Cramped, multiple families are forced to huddle in one of the ruins; the only remaining proof of the original four tribes that used to stand. "Unifying us all is what should make us less insecure about ourselves, but our differences are what makes each one of us unique; special," In Sun'Tribe, everyone is the same. No traditions, no religion, no abilities, no culture, not even the way someone dresses themselves can be different. Dull, brown clothes, with hair cut down and pulled back in a simple manner. Difference is only for their Leader. The supreme ruler who never goes hungry, and lives in a large palace just for herself. It isn't until two lowly commoners take in the last of the outcasts, that their world sees a future of life again. ~*~ Written by the beas-TEAS, @EChO11111111111 (old acc: Echo__IsNoFurry) and @Ripplestream11 ; also credit to our friend who is not comfortable sharing her name (As of right now, Echo's account isn't working, AGAIN, so check both for updates) You don't have to read the other previous two books of this series to understand this book. "Forgotten Truths" is more of a backstory-based book, for the old tribes and some of the characters, which takes place a little over a decade before "Daffodils and Hyacinths", and the main details to understand this book are in "The Place where Dreams Fade," but if you're new, you should be caught up after reading 'TRIBES AND RULERS' and the Prologue. Updates might be a little irregular depending on our schedule We all hope you choose to give "Daffodils and Hyacinths" a go! NOTE: This book is not a fanfic, nor does it have any relation to "The Last Airbender" or "Legends of Korra". We definitely do see how it can be related to that, but we did not intend for that to be the outcome. Thank you!

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.

The Bastard Queen (Viciously Yours #2) by Verbage

Macha just wanted her mother dead. Was that really too much to ask? Tossed out on her ass into the Outerlands as a little girl for being a bastard. Yea that came with some trauma and long lasting issues but she worked through all that. Really. Sure, she may like blood and war a little more that was normal but come on! She's an Unseelie Fae, she was practically born this way. After a long exciting journey she organized *cough* conquered *cough* the Outerlands into a functioning society. Into the Kingdom of the Banished Fae with her ruling as their rightful Queen and everything was great for a time. Truly. Until her birthmother decided that she didn't deserve to be Queen of anything which ended with them battling it out and Macha getting tossed into a maximum security prison. Bummer. Now having escaped prison, Macha is dealing with the fact that very old feelings for a certain asshat are springing back up like a bad joke and that she must rebuild her entire kingdom. But she has to do it right this time and that means telling her people who she really is if she wants them to follow her into a war against her mother. A woman who refuses to let Macha be and plans to wipe her entire existence from fae history. Again, Macha really really just wanted this bitch dead but it was turning out to be a lot harder than she thought. *Cover is made by me but I have no rights to the picture itself.

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. *

Black [1] by _spaceshatters

I look up from my book, my patience tested to the limit. "Don't you get it, yet?!" I very nearly shout at him without meaning to, the words bursting out of my mouth in a torrent. "There's no such thing as heroes and villains. There are only those who will do whatever they want, for whatever reason they want. And my reason... is to keep my friends safe. Whatever the cost." *** Cassia Black was born with different destinies. The destiny of her father, notorious criminal Sirius Black, and the destiny of her mother, selfless martyr Marlene McKinnon. She's torn in all directions, being forced to change who she is and shape into who she should become, but who is it that she's supposed to become? Will her real self ever be enough? She may be a Black, but the light can still shine from her. BOTH BOOKS COMPLETED Book 1 of the Legacy Duology. Cover by @SUJU_Shawol .

The Ember Within by FathimaFaheen

Sometimes, even the most delicate things can seem dangerous but these things are too fragile to be counted. I can choose him, but this fragile choice could ruin me or my cause, and I can't afford that, even if it means the end of my life. But the sight of him takes my breath away. I've met countless men in my nineteen years, but why is he different? Why is he the one whose gaze makes my heart, Calista's heart of iron, beat?

As Scarlet navigates this moral dilemma, she is confronted with new challenges and threats. Dark magic is being used against her people, and her comrades are falling victim to mysterious deaths.

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.
