An existence of reclusion and suffering. The nameless one was born of flesh, white and black, the first all of the forty-nine kingdoms in the west of Africa had ever seen, her mother banished as punishment for her pregnancy. People were frightened by the mismatching colours of her skin and the cold grey of her eyes. And as proven in history, fright grew to defense, and eventually to hate. They wanted the creature dead before it could harm them. But it was just a girl. Yes, she taught herself to hunt for food, to fight to protect herself, she made herself something to be feared in order to discourage attacks, a demon, likened to the devil himself. But it was still just a girl. A girl that wanted friends she'd fetch water with, suitors that would flatter her...a child that wouldn't grow up to be shunned as she was. Elias, a Duke of England, nephew to the King, arrives with a priest in search of one last piece of adventure before he assumes his father's office. Could he be her chance at the life she dared not dream of? Her chance at true happiness? ~An Original Novel~ 2021Complete![Serendipity [BoyxBoy]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/306286372-256-k702153.jpg)
Serendipity [BoyxBoy]
Ten different lives. Two boys. One night that'll bring them all together. Sixteen year old Nosa is okay with being a loner. He doesn't have social anxiety-- he's Catholic and his mum promised you can't love Jesus and have a disorder. He's just weird and he's not good at talking to people but that doesn't mean there's something wrong with him. It does mean that he and Irekan could never be friends. Irekan's parents moved them back to Nigeria to straighten him up-- literally. Being Nigerian and queer has never been easy but now he has to at least try to 'ungay' himself to keep his family together. And that means no falling in love with Nosa's stupid face. Two boys fall in love over novels, anime and rock music that's definitely going to get one of them killed. ❀Winner: 2022 Pride Awards Teen Fiction Category❀ ❀2nd Place Winner: 2022 Pride Awards❀ ❀Featured on the AmbassadorsNG reading list❀ ❀Featured on Stories Undiscovered August 2022 reading list❀ ❀Featured on AmbassadorsAF reading list❀ __Highest Rankings__ #1 wattpadnigeria (3/08/2022) #1 Africanbook (8/05/2022) #1 Africanlgbt (8/05/2022) #5 Blackboys (12/05/2022) #2 Nigerianbook (15/07/2022) #13 Young Adult Fiction (23/06/2024) **This is a bl and it features multiple queer characters.
