And We All Fall Down by Reign_Page
29 parts Ongoing Mature
She screamed, barely audible over the roar of the wind, "Make me understand. You lied to me! You used me. You promised me your heart and the world, only to destroy mine. Everything I've ever known has been demolished, taken from me, and damn you, you will make me understand!" "Goodbye, my love." The princess shook her head, bare feet padding closer, like her will could hold the stone walls open, could keep him from leaving, could change everything. It was too late. And then he was gone. She would have to bear the storm, face the wrath of the Heavens, and carry the remains of her kingdom. Alone. As was the fate of all women. ........................................... For centuries, the continent, Solem, has been plagued by terrifying monsters, Shadeborns. To stave off further devastation, the kings of Verdentia and Frosthaven strike a precarious deal relying on a marital union between their children. Breathlessly handsome and painfully arrogant, the brothers arrive in Verdentia with more than a marriage proposal -- they bring desire, passion, and the promise of salvation. The Deveraux sisters, poised for political duty, soon find themselves entangled in more than just a royal arrangement. The smouldering intensity of the Graysnow brothers breed temptation, and the line between duty and passion blur as the sisters fall deeper into the princes' seductive allure. But behind the princes' charm and Frosthaven's sudden alliance lies a dangerous secret: Verdentia's most prized relic, the Chalice of Celestia, a powerful artifact that could change the fate of the entire continent. As love and lust overlap, betrayal looms, threatening to tear their kingdoms -- and their hearts -- apart. With a war brewing, the sisters must uncover the truth before it consumes them all. But in a world where power is everything, will their loyalty to each other be enough to save them? Or will it be the reason they all fall down?

He didn't expect to fall for her himself. She was beautiful, but was she as pure as she looked? If so, why was she slinking off into dark corners with a mystery man at a monumental risk to her reputation? Why couldn't he get her out of his head?

***COMPLETED!!!*** ---- Everyone has secrets... Vincent, Viscount Thorne, perfected his wicked grin and his good-humored mask years ago. He has no time for fools. Or that fickle emotion, love. The ton is full of sheep blindly walking into heartbreak. After all, he had ruined his best friend's little sister for love only to have ripped away from him. Thorne had no choice but to leave her waiting that night in the garden. It was his only choice. So, why does he still regret it so damned much? Especially now, when the lady in question reenters society, scarred but hardly broken. The Duke of Burkeley - that pompous, uptight wanker - declares himself her fiancee, and Thorne finds he will do whatever necessary to keep her out of that prig's clutches. A wager is in order. He'll find her a better bridegroom and then let her go. If only he could. ...but eventually, even the best kept secrets come out... Lady Georgianna is done hiding. So what, the love of her life left her waiting for hours in a darkened garden? So what, the fire chose that evening to entrap her, leaving her face burned? She dares anyone to place her into an imposed exile. Once was enough. With the Duke as her betrothed - the most arrogant and influential of them - Georgie will finally have everything she wanted within her grasp. Well, if Thorne hadn't intervened once more with his ridiculous talk of wagers. Suddenly, Georgie's in a game she can't afford to lose. But, what if she wins? ...Until everything comes crashing down... By season's end, the masquerade ball reveals more than their masked faces. It's a blazing unveiling that trumps even Beau Brummel's exile. The question remains. Will it lead to their ultimate ruination? Or might it just be their salvation? *** UPDATES: Irregular, but I'm going to try for every Friday!
