I look around the room to see all the adults dancing around formally. I
sigh and stared kicking my feet. You can not see them underneath this
poofy dress. I sigh again before getting up, about to head to the
desert table. As I take a step, I almost run into someone.
I quickly put my head down because it might be a king from another
nation. My family rule over the land of Nebaur. My older brother,
Justin, being the heir. I'm am merely a second child. The second
children of the royal families are meant to look as if we are strong,
but the older child is stronger.
Every year each kingdom gets together for the kings to talk. Each king
brings his family and some guards.
I hear a light chuckle before a hand lifts up my chin. My eyes meet his
ocean blue ones. He smiles and lets go of my chin.
“Hello, kitten. Would you like to dance?” He asked with a smirk on his
beautiful face.
In the land of Nebaur, Princess winter is second in line of the crown. She is supposed to be submissive of those ahead of her. Until she meet tall handsome stranger. What will she do when she finds out his name? She might look into him a little more. But when she does, what does she find? And how will he act when she confronts him?
Greyson is a well known criminal. Leading a well known gang. What happens if he takes an interest in the princess?

Vaani:his forced bride {Edited Version}
𝐻𝐼𝑆 𝐹𝑂𝑅𝐶𝐸𝐷 𝐵𝑅𝐼𝐷𝐸 Bound by Fate. Trapped by Hate. Consumed by Obsession. She has been a prisoner her entire life-locked away, tortured, and left to drown in nightmares that never end. The world beyond her room is a mystery, and love? A fantasy she never dared to dream of. He is a prince and a ruthless CEO, a man who bows to no one. But even power couldn't save him from the trap set by her cruel uncle. Kidnapped and forced into an unwanted marriage, he sees his bride as nothing but a chain around his neck. A fragile, unwanted burden. But when he learns the truth-the horror she has endured-his hatred turns into something far more dangerous. Possession. Obsession. An undeniable craving to claim what was forced upon him. Yet, in the shadows lurks another-a woman driven to madness, in love with him to the point of destruction. She will kill, manipulate, and tear the world apart to have him, even if it means erasing the wife he never wanted. In a marriage forged by cruelty, love may not be the only thing that blooms... because sometimes, obsession is the deadliest poison of all.

"I fear I still do not have a name to match the beauty before me." He began. "Must that always be the only thing you wish to know?" She sighed heavily, looking over to her right where the king and queen sat on their thrones, watching the couple with hopeful stares. Two fingers under her chin brought her attention back to him and despite the mask blocking her view of his brow, she could see the spark of fire in his eyes, "I have plenty of time to know you, my love." He smirked, "as I said, I tend to take the things I want." "You can not steal a woman." Katerina spoke confidently, "Her heart may be locked away." Prince Alexander lowered his lips to the shell of her ear, each syllable tickling her skin, "Tell me where to find it then." ~•~•~ After the death of the queen, the king, overcome by sadness, begins to lust after his own daughter who is an exact replica of her mother. He plans to marry her but she manages to stall the wedding long enough to be able to escape. After escaping from her home and her grotesquely deranged father with three dresses and a cloak made of every pelt in the royal forest, she is lost. Taking refuge in a hollow tree she doesn't realize she has wandered into another King's territory... Warning: When the story begins a disturbing theme of potential sexual assault is mentioned, but this is not the main or entire plot of the story. The main female lead is 20 years old and the main male lead is 22-25. It is not clearly outlined in the novel I don't think. This is based on a fairy tale.

He pushed me inside his huge car, treating me no different than a sack of potatoes, I was about to kick him and then try to run again, I found the car being locked and the wheels started running on the cement. I sighed loudly when I found no use of kicking and screaming. "Why are you taking me in your car?!" I growled, pushing his hands away from me. He chuckled.
