Anastasia von Titania is the crown princess of the kingdom of Titania. Set to marry a hot-shot Prince from the faraway lands, she has spent every day of her life dreaming of the day of her betrothal. Yet when the day arrives, to her great dismay, the Prince is nothing like his description. He is vile, mean, and lacks the very basics of human respect. Seeing as there is no way out of their arranged marriage, Anastasia takes a leap of faith and escapes from the Palace.  As she trudges through the night, she doesn't get far before she encounters a guard. While he threatens to send her back, she somehow manages to convince him otherwise. Not before long, she finds herself being welcomed into his home and into his life. Bit by bit, as they spend more time together, their bickering only seems to increase. Yet as much as their bickering may seem endless, their time together is drawing to a close as Anastasia's royal duties begin piling up and her betrothal begins his pursuit of her whereabouts. Will what she and the guard share survive after she returns to the palace? Or will their affections perish under the weight of the crown?

Baked with Love: A Sweet Pursuit of Passion by imcrazyyourpoint

A prince who is about to be crowned king once his father retires meets an unlikely girl at a restaurant. Story of love and unexpected events in store if you read this. Not edited! Updated weekly Wednesday "I thought my mom said to socialize." The princes breath softly felt on my neck. I straightened my back up. "If someone wanted to socialize with me, they could just come up to me just as you did." I replied cocky. "Maybe they are intimidated by you?" He says it softly. "Oh yeah. That must be it." I say I do not want to continue this conversation. "You know, I've personally heard about three lords who are interested in buying your mom's dowry for your hand in marriage. You'd think they'd be talking to you right now." He says he is sitting down by me. "I think they know better than that," I say, laughing to myself. "Why's that?" He asks me to drink his cup of wine. "I told everyone who mentioned Marriage that I wasn't interested." I replied back, rolling my eyes and drinking the wine again. He laughed. "Most men love a good chase." He replied, smirking to get on my nerves.

BERTIA by CikSyafiqah

Lady Bertia, who's become my fiancée, is a bit odd. On our first meeting, she proclaimed herself a villainess noble girl who's been reincarnated and said that she's working hard every day to become a splendid flower of evil that's elegantly put in her place. I don't get it. But she entertains me because I don't understand. That's why I think I'll observe her for a while. This is a story of a crown prince who's so talented and handsome that he's grown bored of his easy-mode life. A story of this prince observing a self-proclaimed villainess noble girl (who seems perfect at first but is a bit off) who's become his fiancée as she snatches flags and breaks them into pieces.

Rasputina and the Witch's Tsar by FaeWhit

This is the Emperor. I think. Alexandr. Queen Victoria's grandson, the foreign British power. I feel his blood beat, thin, beneath his paper skin, in those blue veins. Something amiss. Something that's too weak in the Russian snow, the turned earth. His hand is cold against my cheek, thumb winding through my coiled hair. "How can I thank you for saving my son's life?" He runs a thumb against my lower lip, waiting. Not pressing, just hoping with bated breath. The walls are thin. The walls whisper. I pull away with a cold smile. I catch my eyes in his gaze, the forbidding ice of my home. Of what the snow made me. The wild, black hair of a vědma. "Haven't you heard? I'm the devil, Alexandr. You don't want to bed me unless you wish to lose your soul." *** A parallel universe where Rasputin was born as Matryona Grigorievna Rasputina. There was real magic. And the tsar most certainly fell under her spell. When she falls, so too will St. Petersburg. *** DARK FANTASY (UPDATES WEEKLY) COPYRIGHT 2018 BY SOPHIA WHITTEMORE. All Rights Reserved.

As Myria learns more about her mother's history, she is confronted by her own decisions. Does she really want to marry the prince? Is learning magic worth the price of joining the ranks of the nobility? Or should she leave the court before encountering the same, mysterious evil that frightened her mother? The dazzling court of Avalion promises secrets, glory, and even riveting danger to those deemed worthy.

Forbbiden Love Princess & Guard☑️ by BeckyMerari1909

The Crowned Princess and her guard share a love that defies all expectations in their world, a place where the royal family is bound by tradition, and loyalty means everything. Princess Elara of Valorian, a poised and elegant young woman with a keen sense of duty, was raised in the royal palace, knowing her life was meant to be devoted to her kingdom. She walks a path paved with the expectations of her title and the future crown she will bear. But beneath the crown, she yearns for something deeper, for a connection that transcends the boundaries of royal obligation. Her personal guard, a skilled and fiercely loyal knight, has stood by her side for years. Despite his humble background, he has proven his worth through his dedication, bravery, and silent protectiveness over the princess. He knows his place is to serve her, to be her shield, never to cross the line into the dangerous territory of affection. And yet, as time passed, the bond between them grew stronger, turning from duty into something forbidden and powerful. In secret moments, away from the eyes of the court, the two have found solace in each other's company, exchanging stolen glances and whispered words. The princess finds in her guard not just a protector, but an equal who understands her struggles, her fears, and her desires for a life not entirely dictated by the crown. Their love, though forbidden, stands as a delicate balance between the weight of their duties and the pull of their hearts. To act on their feelings would mean defying the very kingdom they both vowed to serve, but to deny them would be to deny the deepest truth of who they are. Their story is one of tension, longing, and a love that might never truly be theirs to claim-unless they find the courage to rewrite their fate.

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.
