Alphaea Raze, the duke's daughter, is stuck in the middle of this issue. When she gets invited to His Highness, Cyrus Arcane's birthday she wants to hurl. Getting there is even worse, as the king and queen scrutinize her ever movement and the other young ladies around her act like they have never seen a man before. And what is the icing on the cake you may ask? That would have to be that Cyrus Arcane seems to be an asshole she immediately can't stand. 

Going to this party may be the death of her, literally. How are you even supposed to fall in love with such a rude man anyways?All Rights Reserved

Summary: "I do not care if she banishes me to my chambers for a month or the rest of the year, you two must see reason," Louis protests, feeling a minor fit coming on. "He is nothing but an insufferable, cocky, cloddish, pitiful excuse for an Alpha, and he deserves to live the rest of his days in solitary, not me." "My, my, what an array of abuse. I surely would loath to be this inadequate excuse of an Alpha you speak of, but alas I cannot relate to possessing such deficiency," a honey-glazed voice drips out from behind Louis, and the omega can feel the steam pouring over, ready to burst out of his already flushed ears. Or, the one where Omega Prince Louis is thrown a Courting Ceremony. A weekend full of competition ensues for his hand in marriage. As if he's not already stressed about choosing his future Mate in three days, it's just his luck that his enemy, Alpha Prince Harry has decided to partake as well. - Prompt #105: Omega Prince Louis is the sweetheart of the kingdom and pampered to bits. Naturally, when he reaches the marriageable age, an over the top ceremony is held with all his potential suitors being invited to participate in a bunch of tests, with the winner winning Louis' hand in marriage. Louis is horrified when his arch nemesis Alpha Prince Harry Styles also participates in the ceremony.

Burntout by Reverie_flowers

My dagger poised over his heart I scornfully asked the king,❝Any last words, your highness?❞ ❝It was never me.❞ I plunged my weapon downwards, sending blood spurting. The crimson substance was spilling from his mouth like red wine. I twisted my dagger and then pulled it out of his chest. The marble floors were now stained with his blood and I gazed as it seeped through his white shirt. ❝Your reign is over. ❞ ________________ Andromeda Holloway is pulled into a realm of lies and memories when she finds out she's one of them.

Eventually Yours by ANHorton1227

A younger sister cannot wed before an older sister. It's a law of their society, a rule vehemently obeyed by prominent families in the nobility, and it's always been Ella Harrington's buffer. Ella has never been interested in marrying for anything short of love itself. Unfortunately for her, love is a rarity in the marriages of the aristocracy. Fortunately for her, her sister Emily is precisely one year older than her and is the most unpleasant, disagreeable, sulking woman to ever debut in all of England. So Ella may never have to marry at all. A free woman, she enjoys her time on the sidelines and wishes for nothing more. That is, until a tall, dark, and brooding Duke comes to town alongside an old friend of her brother's. Suddenly, Ella finds herself questioning the antiquated marriage order rule as her buffer begins to feel more like a barrier. Not that it matters. The Duke isn't interested in her anyway. Right?
