"I felt like I was the most hated antagonist, the other woman, third party, in a TV drama series-the nasty girl who shamelessly wrecked a relationship. I felt more guilty of my popularity when I agreed to be his fake girlfriend when now I knew the prince and another person had broken hearts.

How far would I go to be the duchess of North Valley? Should I stop?"

-----

In the powerful country of Luvia, status is still important, and royal blood is still a thing. Nathalie Hendlefort, an 18-year old girl part-timer, claimed that she is a direct descendant of a duke, and her grandmother was a duchess before stripping the title from their family. Nathalie never experienced royalty, and she lived like a commoner until a prince came into her life.

Prince Theodore of Luvia, popularly known as Prince Theo, is a crown prince who never thought of marrying anyone but his first love - a high-profile celebrity who did not come from a royal blood ancestor. His parents are against with him marrying a non-royal blood, but Prince Theo will do anything just to marry his present girlfriend even using a commoner like Nathalie Hendlefort.

Nathalie only wants to return their family's title and her grandmother's name, and Prince Theo will grant it and make her a duchess once he becomes a king someday, but with only one condition: for Nathalie to pretend as Prince Theo's girlfriend in the public, while he is dating his non-royal blood girlfriend secretly.

As fate and love find each other in every lifetime, will this finally be the start of their happily ever after?

Every year, nobility and royalty from near and far gather together to court and find matches for the Season. Rowan never thought she would find herself in the Season at all, being a lowly peasant from the countryside. But a chance encounter as a child might have set her on a path she never dreamed possible. Could this ridiculous notion of courting a bunch of rich spoiled brats actually bring her to her soul mate? Or just leave her heartbroken and worse off than before? "Was he just teasing me? Was this just some point to prove that he knew I was attracted to him even though I clearly hated him? My thoughts were so jumbled I couldn't work through them. Some very small voice in the back of my head was yelling at me and asking what the hell I was doing. But it continued to get smaller and smaller every time his fingers and lips grazed my skin. All I knew now was how amazing his skin felt on mine. It was clear where he was going. He was going to kiss me. And I wanted him to." [[word count: 70,000-80,000 words]]

Not Giving Into Fate by a-girl-who-wishes

I was the daughter of Duke Solon, I thought I was the last child. My elder brother is following in my father's stead. We were never really close. We both share my father's personality, a wedge that makes it hard for the three of us to talk to one another. It was fine, living like that, I mean. I was the daughter of the Duke, engaged to the Prince who didn't seem to care that much about the engagement. I was the Master of Ancient Magic at the Magic Tower. I had everything and I was stronger than most. The only terrible thing was that on my coming of age ceremony, it was all ruined. Catherina broke into my ball, claiming to be the daughter of some woman and my father. She looked like her mother and acted like her to gain my father's affection, society's adoration and the Prince's love. For two years she ruined me up to the point of my death. She somehow was able to frame me and villainize me as she stole my fiancé and life. She continued doing so until I somehow was framed for attempted murder. My father called me a traitor and a liar, the Prince sentenced my death and no one stopped it. I woke in my body again, 18 years old and with a plan. I don't want the Prince who will ridicule me, embarrass me and choose the woman over me. I don't care for all those who supported her over me. I had one plan. Kill her before she kills me.

She Becomes A Passive Villainess-NOT! by HalloweenGodspell

Falling into the fiery hell she created must've been the perfect way for her to die. The other woman would then become the heroine that saved the town's people from the mad queen that burnt half of the population down and the duke would become the hero that protected the heroine. They would then be wed and have little children. They would live happily in the new world that they would create after vanquishing the evil queen. They would then lead the people unto a prosperous era of peace. Just... Where?... Where did I go wrong? When I am reborn, will you please give me a simple life?

To Marry a Dragon by DomiSotto

||WATTY 2021 SHORTLIST|| Ex-Princess-Bride wants to marry her beloved Dragon, but when a curse threatens their happily ever after, they are left racing against time to break the spell before it breaks their hearts. *** Elvira, a princess who gave up her rights to the crown to go on adventures and do good, falls in love with a dragon knight Ferrante. Alas, copious amounts of lightning bolts threaten to keep Elvira and Ferrante apart forever, to protect the rights of her long-forgotten, dead-beat betrothed. Who knew that magic-sealed marriage contracts don't have an expiration date when the royals are involved? With romance on the line, Elvira immediately sets out in search of her betrothed to wed him, bed him and be done with him. It would have been simple, except her runaway prince had since become a highway robber and nobody knows where he might be hiding. Ferrante, infuriated with Elvira's quest to save their nuptials, takes on the ancient Arcane Guild to annul the contract. More brawn than brains, the fine print is not his forte, and the dangers of sparring with nimble minds are far greater than he had seen in his nightmares. Meanwhile, a sinister puppet-master also has designs on Elvira... So, the race to the altar is on! Age range I think is NA to adult, but it's smut-free. If you see this book on any other site, they'd stolen it. If they're charging you for it, this is the best and free version. Please read it on W-A-T-T-pad. First Published: April 29, 2020

PROUD - ON HOLD by yesimbetter

-NOT ON TOTAL HOLD BUT I RARELY UPDATE SO IT MIGHT AS WELL BE CALLED ON HOLD- Once upon a time there lived a girl. The fairest maiden on her block. She lived a easy and humble life but just like any other story that was turned upside down. With ballroom dancing and locker notes. With science explosions and late night drives. With cooking catastrophes and night time reading. Thinking how life could get any better with him. It couldn't. It doesn't. ------ Hazel Gomez Sweet. Witty. Funny. Lovely. A real charm. Alexander Williams. Self-centered. Sarcastic. Adventurous. Rich. Worlds collide and fall in love. For the time being. For the 24 months she has to live then go back to her normal peasant life. ---- "C'mon sweetheart, don't sit there and pout you know you love me" I did. But I didn't want him to know that. I smile up at him. "In your dreams Alexander, the only thing I love is food." He scoffs and smiles down looking into my eyes. Don't smile at me like that Alex. I cant take it. He leans down to meet my ear and I swear I can hear my heart thump a thousand miles an hour. "That's not what you said last night when I had you tied up" he husks "I believe you were begging me to pound into you, yes? To shove my length inside you and let you cum? I believe you loved that, hm?" Shit. ---- -slow burning romance- -happy ending-
