Speared By Heart ♡ (Yandere! Male! Warrior x Princess! Reader) by KittenStealth_

PART I: Princess (Y/N). Instead of being offered to join the war and fight back for your freedom, you were almost handed away to marriage on a silver platter with a man you used to love. He grew cold with age and ruling a kingdom did not do his personality any good; being sent over to him for marriage now would be a death sentence for you. Not doing it would mean a death sentence for everyone else. Still, you had to run away. You never wanted the royal life nor to get married at the exact young age of 20. Running away to a small town nearby was not the best idea you could have ever come up with, but it served well as the town agreed to keep you and put you to work. Mainly with hand-to-hand combat training. You were never allowed to do anything of the sort when at the hands of your mother, so it was nice for a change. But what were they training you for? The war. No one knew you were the princess, and they were expecting to have you frontline back into the kingdom you tried so hard to escape from to fight in the war. Escaping now to anywhere else in the world seemed to be the only good option. One person in particular wasn't going to let you do that. Clyde Ray. ♡ PART II: Coming soon :) (All rights reserved for both the story and art. This story is a visual novel! Play it now on my itch.io account linked to my profile.)

So here we are, anxiety-ridden Catherine forced to compete in this competition with other people her age just to help her family with finances, and finally receive affection from her mother. Things at the Academy are alright, rocky, but overall she's alright. She's just passing by. Until, she discovers some dark truths against her world that she can't bear to ignore any further.

Thousandfurs by slumberingtales

"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.

A Bloody Crown by peachyprettypink

"How can one be a Queen without a crown, darling?" she cooed, a small smile on her face. "Slit her arms." The guards each restrained me, tying my legs together, and my upper arms to my torso. They slid up my leather sleeves, took out a knife, extended out my arms, and began slitting long marks down the length, from my elbow to wrist. I screamed in pain, twisting and writhing away from them as best as I could. Tears streamed down my face, the pain becoming unbearable as air hit the open wounds. Vomit began rising in my throat, panic stirring in the back of my mind. "Stop, please," I begged, unable to take the pain. "I can't, I can't-" Briallyn placed the crown in my hands, allowing the blood from my arms to run down onto it, staining the precious silver metal red. Red. That color. Iron. That smell. It dripped onto the floor, echoing around the room, reverberating between my ears. Splattering. That sound. The guards squeezed each of my upper arms, pushing more blood out of the wounds, causing me to howl in pain. I cried and wriggled, holding desperately to the crown. My guts turned at the sight, my arms stained red, unclean and impure. *this story contains strong themes of violence, PTSD, and sexual assault*

Shard of Exile by watdoiread

The first wizarding war is over at the cost of a child's soul. Not a single witch or wizard came to comfort or look for Emry; just the cold confirmation of her brother, sister-in-law, and nephews death by the hands of Albus Dumbledore. He said they gave the greatest sacrifice, as if it was planned all along. As if their deaths, Sirius' arrest, Remus' estrangement, and her own torture and delayed rescue was all part of some master plan. But Emry knew better than that. Exiling herself from the wizarding world had been Albus' idea; however, he was unaware that she refused to completely leave the wizarding world behind. How could she? She refused to completely turn away from the world she grew up in. And it turns out, the universe wasn't going to let her leave it behind either. Watch as Emry battles through life with the Savior by her side, who brings with her a child that brings her right back to one of the core parts of her being: magic. Turns out her exile was only a shard of exile after all. *A Harry Potter and Once Upon A Time crossover*
