The good guys always win. The good guys always find love. But what about the bad guys?
Shipped away for bad behavior. Treated like a child. Juniper knows she isn't a good person, but isn't that the fun of it? So why must she endure ridiculous punishments?
Well, she may find a way out of it on the high seas. Best not to tell her parents.

"Large men surrounded her as she struggled to free herself from the net. No, no, no.
Juniper's back hit the side of the ship and she was ready to throw herself overboard when a large cutlass slammed into the wood in front of her, trapping the net in place. The men all around went quiet, and the Princess went still, eyes widening.
"Hm... I thought you were a mermaid," a smooth voice purred.
Juniper could only stare at the big sword inches from her bare feet.
"But mermaids don't have legs, and they don't carry daggers." The pirate crouched in front of her, and she immediately knew he was the Captain. But he was surprisingly young, with a shock of black hair that was wild from battle, and dark, intelligent eyes, which were scanning her rather closely.
"Congratulations, you identified the difference between a human and a mermaid." Juniper hated how rough her voice was as she spoke."

The Monster of Collincia
Note: The men in this story are not mine (except for one/two characters). They were born from the mind of a fellow Watter that goes by the name of GoodnightGore who I will refer to as Dally from this point on. To support the original parent, go and read their "child" called "Come To Life". Seriously, do that. Dally is awesome as hell. ><><>< With their eyes wide open, they stared at what was being presented before them. Both were lucky their head wasn't being held down since their stomach turned. Charlie had provided them a bucket for them to puke into since neither could decide which way to turn. They were the princesses of Collincia after all; one must treat his prisoners like the royalty they are. "Do you like what you see, your highnesses?" Charlie cooed turning their head back to the horrifying scene before them. "This is what you and your brothers called 'The Monster of Collincia'. I remember that day you banished him from the kingdom, Princess Rainger. Didn't he kill Prince Psi and Princess Cho as well as every... single... royal... guard... in their kingdom?" "Why are you showing us this?!" roared Cho tying to get her side free. "What do you seek to achieve with showing us a hollowed-out Joseph!?!" Charlie smiled as he walked away from the princesses to a curtain revealing a robot charging. "Without The Monster of Collincia and his powers or... heh... 'Joseph'... as you call him... no one will be able to stop me from conquering every single kingdom in the world!" That's when it dawned on the princesses. Oh, how wrong they were in the past about Joseph until now. If they could, the princesses would be staring into each other's eyes with regret as they recall everything that happened in the past. If they had known, things would've been different.Complete
Forgotten
//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me." I said between gritted teeth. He just gave me a sorrowful glance before driving the dagger into my flesh.// This is no story of love and happiness. This is a story of death and destruction.

Capsized By You
Marissa is one of three siblings of the head family of New Hope. Everything is as perfect as it could be in a world where mystical beings and humans are on the verge of another war. Until her father arranges a marriage to an older shape-shifting sea dragon pirate, all of her plans, from her career to her personal life, are now dead in the water. Levi is a world-famous pirate, mainly for how his family came into power. He wants to establish lasting peace between all of the clans, even at the cost of his freedom. It's easier said than done when his family pressures him to keep to tradition, and infighting may destroy the treaty before it can even begin. When they embark on this relationship, will they see past their differences and save the country from another war? Could they fall in love along the way, or will they sacrifice their hearts and freedom for the sake of peace? *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* "I'm told love doesn't have a place in business or duty," Marissa said with a smile. "Even at my age, I find that a hard pill to swallow," Rhys said, pouring himself another glass. "I would imagine at your age, there's a lot of things hard to do," Marissa giggled. "What experience do you have with older men," Rhys asked, laughing. He leaned back into the couch, stretching his arms along the back. His seated stance widened. Marissa sat back as well and angled her body towards him. "None, just a guess from what I hear," Marissa said, finishing her drink. "Well, on behalf of all old men, I take offense. Especially since you've never been with one. We're quite capable, more so than the younger ones," Rhys said, filling her glass. "That's something I would need to experience for myself then," Marissa said. "It's possible," Rhys said. "Was that an offer," Marissa asked. "It's whatever you want it to be," Rhys said. *~*~*~*~* COMPLETEDComplete
