❝ A liar once said that every cloud has a silver lining. ❞

In a kingdom as renowned as Forteaux Academy, the falling of one monarch leads to the ascendance of another.

Heart sliced in two by the woman he thought understood him, Gabriel Reid relishes the disassociation from humanity that came gifted alongside the golden throne. After all, the chance of emotions destroying you is non-existent if the heart itself perishes. 

Armed with a gorgeous face hand-carved by angels and a silver body, cast by the devil himself, the infatuated hands of all reach out for a touch of his infallible skin. 

Love hurts when it's tainted but kills when it's not reciprocated and a pair of seafoam eyes, obsessed with the King, knows that better than ever. 

With broken friendships, deep rooted bitterness and pure loathing still scattered across the Academy grounds, the reappearance of a woman having second doubts is destined to be the flame to the fuel.

Because for every King, there can only be one Queen.

Velbridge Academy by YabureKaburno
31 parts Complete Mature
Welcome to Velbridge Academy - where royalty, wealth, and legacy aren't just inherited... they're weaponized. Tucked behind gilded gates and hidden from the public eye, Velbridge isn't your typical elite boarding school. It's the academy of the crowned, the heirs of empires, and the future rulers of the world. Power isn't taught here - it's expected. When Lilith Aurelian, an ordinary girl with a quiet past and a sharp mind, earns her place among the thirteen - a group made of royalty, aristocrats, and heirs - she doesn't just step into privilege. She steps into centuries of secrets, tension, and rituals built to break the weak. What begins as icy stares and velvet walls becomes something else entirely. Between intimate spa rooms divided only by curtains, private jets that whisper confessions in the dark, and late-night lounges where power slips through murmured words and steady hands - Lilith discovers that belonging is far more dangerous than exclusion. Friendships bloom. Trust fractures. Love simmers beneath silk robes and stolen glances. And just when the group begins to heal, a single mistake threatens to unravel it all. Because at Velbridge, one wrong move isn't just social suicide - it's legacy death. This is Velbridge: where loyalty is tested, intimacy is a silent language, and the only thing thicker than blood... is the silence that follows betrayal.

❝ The question is, are you worth your weight in gold? ❞ Reputation is a sacred sheet of parchment at Forteux Academy. Handled carefully, it can become a bill of gold leading one to a life of riches. Yet a mere foot in the wrong direction can tear its dainty form until the misstepped individual goes tumbling down the very social hierarchy they were once so eager to ascend. When a mistake left behind from the crowned Queen's darkest night rocks up in the form of a handsome newcomer, Louisa Darling is more desperate than ever to keep everything under covers in her elite circle. The taste of jealousy, bitterness, hate and love is beyond dangerous in a world where everyone is used to getting what they want. And with one desperate to hide a secret that the other is determined to seek, things are bound to get damn complicated.

LAW OF ATTRACTION by feufeu15

Newton needed an apple to discover the Law of universal attraction. I needed Alex Carter to discover the attraction. Alex Carter, THE BAD BOY. Do I need to say more? Probably not, because everyone knows him. He's the typical bad boy with bad behavior, leather jacket, and that dark aura that makes almost every girl drool over him, along with the fact that he is strong, handsome, with brown hair, tattoos, and a smolder look that can set you on fire. But he's also known for fighting, dealing drugs, vandalism, and so much more that make everyone fear him. He screams Danger. He is Danger. Me, Elena, on the other hand, I'm a nerd. Do I need to say more? Well, there isn't much to say. Nobody knows me. I'm invisible. I always play it safe and follow the rules. I have two friends, and I've been bullied several times because I'm shy, awkward, clumsy, and I have good grades, attributes that don't really help in high school. Everything separates us, or so it seems, yet an irresistible attraction pulls us together. People will say 'opposites attract', but maybe we have more in common than we've thought, and that's what draws us together... Like 2 free electrons, will our encounter result in a rare, beautiful, perfect balance, or will it cause a ravaging explosion? Warning for strong language and mentions, and some steam in the chapters.... ;) _______________________________________ Ranked #1 in #TeenFiction on May 20, 2020, and June 26, 2022 Featured in Wattpad BadassReads' The Badass King reading list THE FALL AWARDS 2021 (ContemporaryLit) Winner of Ambassadors Picks in Romance WRITER'S GLORY AWARDS 1st Place Winner in Teen Fiction PHOENIX AWARDS 2019 Winner of People Review in Romance THE CUPID AWARDS VALENTINE'S EDITION Winner of Cupid's favorites THE ATLA AWARDS Winner in Romance

They don't play to win. They play to hurt. Sterling Academy's irresistible reputation all came crashing down last year when a list of the 'top thirty girls too...' had been anonymously published. Now recovering from the pits of hell the media dragged them through, the students at Sterling have been told to be silent. Not to talk of the list ever again; and thanks to new spiralling rumours, formal coming up, and the short term attention span of students. Everyone has started to move on. Almost everyone. Silence may be a deadly game, but Valè is willing to play, if it means revenge on those who created the list. And lucky for her, she has a pretty good idea. The Heartbreakers of Sterling. Caleb Delvaúx, Luca Cathans, Atlas McAllister and Sage Evander's. Forming a team of her own, Valè gets together a flawless group of girls that are equally starved for revenge...or a challenge. Revenge may be sweet. But heartbreak is sweeter. ______________________________ "We're not playing to win over social hierarchy.

The Bill of Bronze | Fortune's Fool #3 by KiwiAndKoalas
15 parts Ongoing
❝ Fortune never favours the fools who win bronze. ❞ Though exceedingly ironic, titles and formalities never really mattered to Prince Al-Zahrani. This wasn't because he was some anti-capitalist, blessed with a celestial halo of bronze, who revelled in campaigning against societal inequality. Truth-be-told, it was more that he was blissfully unaware of the extent of sheer privilege he'd been subject to growing up. Heir to the family business and of course, an avid shirker of responsibility, taking some time out to think after graduating from university was his preferred path forward. Twenty-two and rather out of touch, Al-Zahrani soon finds himself transfixed by an ethereal midnight-haired intellect, who contrasts against every life experience he'd been subject to. Renowned for sharp logic and beguiling dark eyes, self-starter Zaara Jhatoliya is bound to shatter the rose-tinted glasses that the commitment-phobe adores. Sociologists say opposites attract but very often, synergy has its perks when it comes to the non-negotiable fundamentals. Common ground is destined to become a much-needed but extremely scarce resource. Especially when a woman, whose life story revolves around digging herself out of poverty with a rented shovel, piques the interest of a man fed with an ancestral silver spoon. •--- ♛ ♕ ♛ ---• The Bill of Bronze, Book Three of Fortune's Fool Trilogy, KiwiAndKoalas, All rights reserved ©
My Boyfriend's Brother by im_kendra
9 parts Ongoing
Some love stories begin with a kiss. Others begin with a lie. Elisa Kai never meant to fall for the golden boy next door. Damien Jackson was everything she wasn't-effortless smile, easy confidence, and the kind of charm that made the whole world orbit around him. Elisa? She was the quiet girl everyone whispered about-the one who stared at the Jacksons' perfect life from her window, convinced she didn't belong in their world. Convinced she didn't belong at all. But then, she crossed a line. And Damien chose her. For a while, it felt like a dream. Like she was finally more than just the rumors. But every fairytale has a shadow. Drake Jackson is that shadow. Damien's younger brother is sharp where Damien is soft, chaotic where he's calm-and he watches Elisa like he knows exactly what she's hiding. He's arrogant. Infuriating. Always one step too close with a smirk that drives her insane. And worse? He never goes away. When Damien leaves for college, everything changes. Drake becomes the new king of the school while Elisa is fighting to make a name for herself in fashion. And what was once teasing turns into something darker. Something magnetic. Then Damien comes back. Now Elisa is caught between the boy who made her feel seen-and the one who never stopped watching. Old sparks reignite. New tensions boil over. What started as a simple love story begins to unravel into something far messier, far more dangerous. Secrets simmer beneath the surface-about the past, about what's real, and about the Jackson brothers themselves. And then...tragedy shatters everything. What follows is heartbreak, silence, and blame. As the rumors grow louder, the whispers get crueler, and her world spins further out of control, Elisa must face one truth: Sometimes, the person who saves you... is also the one who could destroy you. And not every love story survives the truth.
