The Wizard and The Serpent (A Beauty and the Beast/Sanders Sides AU) by Loganofthenorth

Janus Viper was once a handsome king, a cruel ruler that ruled his Kingdom with an iron fist. Even though he had everything he ever wanted since he was born (except, perhaps, love) he taxed his people relentlessly in order to fill his castle with the most beautiful objects, and his parties with the most powerful people. One day, a weak and homeless old man visits Janus, seeking shelter from the storm. Janus turns the man away, repulsed by his appearance, and as punishment, a curse is placed on Janus and his castle. Janus is turned into a monster, with six arms, claws, venomous fangs, and scales covering half of his body. The servants of the castle and all his guests were turned into furniture, as punishment for sitting by and doing nothing while the Prince grew into the cruel King he is today. However, there is a cure for the curse. If Janus can learn to truly love another and be loved in return, the curse will be cured. As the years went by, the castle and everyone in it became forgotten, and Janus lost hope. For who could ever love someone as cold and monstrous as him? Meanwhile, in a small village nearby, a Wizard named Logan Foster is looked down on by his town for his startling intelligence, difficulty in social situations, and his practices of magic. That doesn't deter Roman Prince from attempting to court Logan, however, because even if he is odd, Logan is the most handsome man in the village, and Roman has always enjoyed a challenge. Not wishing for his son to be alone, Patton Foster agrees to give Roman his blessing. Logan, who doesn't wish to get married, runs away from home. He plans to build a cabin in the forest and live the rest of his days there, but instead he finds a castle, where he is invited to stay as a guest. (Yes changing the captive part you're welcome) He isn't sure yet who the Castle's Master is, but based on the talking furniture that allowed him to stay here, he assumes it's a fellow Wizard.

The House of Landry by clover_b4

In 3015, the last remaining humans on Earth escaped after a deadly virus wiped out most life on Earth; wildlife, humans, and nature alike. 76 years later, Taina Landry is the eldest daughter of the House of Landry, a popular, well-liked family who rules over Thálassas, a planet of seas. She carries her mother and grandmothers' gifts of magic, training hard to become the next royal mage as well as her brother's future courtier. Her and her siblings share her family's gift of prophecy, expressed through dreams, and although Taina's dreams seem inferior compared to her siblings', the boy that appears every night takes up a larger chunk of her thoughts than she'd like. One day, the siblings find themselves and their family in distress after being the victims of a disrespectful act from Duke Kardos, the duke of Kageki, a planet of extreme weather. This DUNE-inspired story follows Taina and her siblings as they encounter new environments, possible allies, and experiences they had only thought of as fiction. As they uncover secrets, both their enemies' and each others', will they be able to keep their family name alive? --- Author's note: This is my first draft AND my first story and I'm also not done fully planning this story or writing it, SO PLEASE bear with me please. Thank you :) I also plan to post at least one part per week!

Sticks & Stones by Hellsonn

When Prince Timothy finds out that he isn't who he has always thought he was, he comes to the realization that not only was his life in danger but so was his mother's life thanks to the laws of Lyvera against bastards. With his uncle and aunt gunning for the throne and his life, Timothy has no choice but to get married before his Coronation which is in two moons, in order to secure his fragile claim to the throne and keep his mother safe. Facing challenges to his legitimacy and pressure to marry before his coronation, particularly due to lacking Grey magic when his lineage is expected to have both Green and Grey magic, Timothy finds an unlikely ally in Princess Zelda Faroe. A formidable mage he has a complicated history with. A girl he hates due to her bullying him in the Academy for four years. All her life Zelda Faroe has always gotten whatever she wanted with relative ease and has always been the most powerful Grey Mage in the Lyverian Empire, until she meets Timothy at the Academy. With her desire to be close to the Prince, who was supposed to be as powerful as her in magic, morphing into anger at him not being as powerful as she thought, she decides to train him for the next four years. At least that's what she thinks she is doing until seven years later when the Emperor dies and Timothy is in need of a bride. With her past actions haunting her, and her desire to change how he sees her prevalent in her mind, she decides to risk her life and her kingdom to help Timothy become Emperor.

Reverie || Kit Tanthalos || Willow by foxysaucee

When Princess Verania Hastur of Galladoorn has to go to Tir Asleen to attend to her brother's wedding, she thought it would be a one week trip at most. But then, all of a sudden, the Prince of Tir Asleen is abducted, and she finds herself on a quest to rescue him. On this journey, Verania experiences loss and pain, but also magic, joy, and even love like she never did before. A little rescue mission turns into so much more, and the little rescue team becomes like her family. One member, perhaps even more. --- Not captivating? Sorry, I tried my best. This story is yet to be edited, so you can expect some mistakes, typos, etc. After editing, there will probably be some minor changes in the plot as well since I'm not at all happy with it yet. It's not my best work.

Rebellion by Scottish_writer

Picked for the WattVamps February Showcase & now a Wattpad Dark Fantasy featured story! The Risen Series - Book 1 Rebellion I've been a cardholding member of the undead for centuries, torn away from the sun by a vampire with no care for human life. From the moment I opened my eyes to the night and had my first craving for blood, my Maker twisted and moulded me into exactly what he wanted; trapping me in his hold. Until one day he let me go. Content to live out eternity as no more than a shadow, I do my best to stay out of trouble. But trouble always had a way of finding me. During a hunt, I run into another vampire doing his best to go unnoticed; one so ancient the air around him reeks of power, and he claims he's just escaped imprisonment from the very council that used me to their own ends. Atanas demands I help him until he regains his strength so he can finish what he started a century ago, but I'm not sure that's all he wants from me. And while I'm no supporter of the council he seeks vengeance against, there are secrets that bind my life to theirs, and I know better than most that disloyalty means death. But in the shadows, a rebellion has been brewing, and I might be more important to both sides than I could ever have imagined.

I'm The Princess's Twin?! (Lucas X OC) by read_write_work

"Who Made Me A Princess?" was a story which was for the Lovely Princess Athanasia. I loved as how she had gone through everything to survive, and after everything she had gotten a happy ending. I was very satisfied with reading that. But, what kind of moronic twist ended up placing me in that story as a character which was never portrayed in the story in the first place? The existence which was shrouded in darkness was suddenly brought to light and the story now took a very different turn because this character not only holds the key to the future but also has ties with the past. There's also a person from the past whom she has to keep a promise with and a revenge to exact. What will happen with Amara when she'll realize that she's someone who was supposed to be there in the story but because of Black Magic her existence was erased? She'd have to fight with everything in order to protect her sister and father from the conspiracy of the one who had killed her in her past life. But with her being the one in the center of the curse will she have her happy ending? All the characters belong to the original creator of "Who Made Me A Princess?" only the OC belongs to me. I hope you'll enjoy this fanfiction.

As the Crow Falls | ✔ by SmokeAndOranges

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

The Envoy of Darkness by maxanonymity

"Everyone loves a good fantasy, but my life was turned upside down by one." What would you do if you had the ability to control the air? How about if you were suddenly brought to a world where, despite your powers, you're at the bottom of the food chain? On a fateful night, Max Walker finds himself summoned to Asterisk and contracted to Liliana Lockwood as her familiar. Forced to leave behind his life on Earth, Max begins a precarious journey into the unknown world of magic. Training as a knight, learning to control mana, battling rogue necromancers and even being mistaken for Duke Walker's son... it's just one thing after the next. But as if that wasn't bad enough, Asterisk, a world which subverts reality as you know it, may just have something to do with Max's own heaven-defying origin... and a secret that could leave the universe hanging by a thread.
