The Queen's Thorn by Wrenthebird6

Also, this is my first story! But anyways, here is what the story is about! In the kingdom of Veladris, where magic is bound by bloodline and ancient pacts, Princess Lysara has spent her life preparing for an arranged marriage to a nobleman she does not love. But on the eve of her engagement announcement, she crosses paths with Seraphine, a rogue sorceress with a wicked smile and bounty on her head. Seraphine claims to know a secret about the royal bloodline-one that could change the fate of Veladris forever. When an assassination attempt on Lysara forces her to flee the palace, she has no choice but to trust the dangerous yet alluring sorceress. Together, they embark on a journey through enchanted forests, underground rebel networks, and pleasure-drenched masquerade balls where desire is as much a weapon as a sword. As Lysara learns to wield forbidden magic and take control of her own destiny, her partnership with Seraphine grows into a passionate, intoxicating affair. But with the crown at stake and a dark force hunting them both, they must decide: will they fight to reclaim Lysara's throne, or abandon it all for the love that could set them free.

The Ring by authormaryelovelace

This is book one of a three book series. All of them are on Amazon, but I started writing the story on wattpad and wanted to keep it here for memories. Enjoy! _____________________________________________ "Beautiful women always fall for me." Sarcasm was laced in her words. "Glad to know i'm just a number to you." He stopped crawling beside her and dropped his joking manner as he saw the dark haired girl had grown visibly upset. Kandor shook his head, "I don't dream of you that way in the slightest, Chrissa." Her eyes shifted to his lips, and then back up at his eyes. "W-we shouldn't get distracted." --------------------------- On a dark night before supper, princess Chrissa's world turns upside down as her palace is being invaded, and she suddenly has to flee from her murderous fiancé Stephen who is only after one thing. A sacred thing. Her palace ring-so that he can reverse time, and become the most powerful in all of the land of the Fae. Quickly, it is learned she needs to flee to Endlaysha-where all the other royals go to hide. As she's being accompanied by a dashing palace gaurd-Michael, feelings arise that she wishes would go away. Chaos occurs as they are captured by the Vampire King, and he takes them as prisoners. Would you eventually be able to save the world from selfish Fae creatures and Vampires who will stop at nothing to obtain power greedily? Would you even want to? Especially when you're Vampire Kings' latest obsession... ----------------------------- [Trigger warning: Mature themes, and 18+ content.] #1 youngwritersshortstory February 2021 #1 adult content March 2021 #4 in faeries March 2021 #8 in monarchy october 2021 #5 gothic romance october 2022 #2 vampire royalty october 2022 #2 wattpad creator october 2022 #2 in faeries November 2022

Illicit ✔ by StephRose1201

**WATTPAD HQ EDITOR'S PICK Nov/Dec 2021** BOOK ONE in the STEAMY FORBIDDEN ROMANCE series Coralie Watson, a British thirty-year-old living in San Francisco, has a tormented past with men. Physical and mental abuse, abandonment issues, incompatibility--she feels like she just can't win, and constantly swears to herself that she'll remain single so she can focus on her burgeoning singing/songwriting career. After twelve years in the United States, she often regrets leaving London, her friends, her habits, and dreams of what life might have been like had she not moved. As she slowly settles into a new routine--and has, so far, kept her vow to stay celibate--her past refuses to give her a break. As she reencounters a former boss she'd had a crush on, someone else resurfaces into her life after many years of silence--a boy she met at fifteen, that she'd had deep feelings for. But now he's all grown-up and irresistibly handsome. She always considered him the "one that got away", and is shocked when he confesses he feels the same way about her. The problem? He's a successful business man who can't afford a scandal, he's married to a supermodel wife, and has two beautiful daughters. Yet none of that seems to stop him from making Coralie promise that next time she's in London, they need to meet and catch up... What's the harm in that? ♥♥♥ This is a work of FICTION. It will have fairly explicit language & sexual content (but I'll put warnings at the top of those chapters, in case those make you uncomfortable--though, hey, YOU CAME HERE FOR THAT, DIDN'T YOU?!)

The Revelation by dstry0515

In the beginning, there was death. The darkness flows from hues of purple and orange, the moon rising to kiss the sun's rays one last time as the darkest cloud of night I've ever seen falls over our tiny haven. I catch Will's face from the side of my vision and my heart tightens slightly. The tick of his jaw wouldn't be noticeable for anyone but me. His best friend, his lifeline. A solemn tear forms in my eye as he wipes his face, another tear falling for the family he lost. I love him. Utterly and desperately so, but, there's nothing I can do about that. The ultimate forbidden fruit, if you will. I reach to comfort him and he doesn't respond. I open my mouth to speak and he looks my way, but the gleam in his dark brown eyes hits the moonlight just right and I fall. My voice escapes my throat and I can't do it. I've tried for years to tell him. 10 years, actually. All this time, I hopelessly remained devoted to a ghost who had given the best of himself to a fiery red-head with a sassy personality and the body of a supermodel. For 10 years, I held to the desperate thought that maybe, just maybe, he'd be someone I could count on. Instead, I watched him marry my best friend, smiled as they welcomed their son. Stood, holding that beautiful boy as his mother was in the first round of executions after the beginning of the Revelation. Helped heal Will's wounds in the aftermath. Cried, clutching the tear-stained shirt of my best friend as his son took his last staggering breath in that first harsh winter. The guilt of my emotions crawl through me. My heart twisting in regret, guilt, desperation, and grief. I loved my best friend. She was so much more than that; she was my family. In this dystopian quick read, join a group of people desperate to recapture their freedom and end a tyrant's reign.

LITTLE VIENNA by Seekani_

Vienna could feel the King's eyes on her now, and she wanted to scream in excitement and panic. She wondered why he was staring at her, but she quickly figured it was probably for the same reason she had been staring at him. She swallowed to calm down her nerves and confidently looked at him, immediately catching his eyes, and she didn't look away this time. Christopher was a bit surprised by her action as she matched his stare. It seemed like she was challenging him to look away first. His lips curled up in a smirk, and she smiled at him, but neither of them looked away from each other. Christopher was impressed by her boldness, and Vienna was simply mesmerised by him. * * * * In the midst of preparations for his royal wedding, King Christopher's life is turned upside down by the unexpected arrival of Vienna, the youngest daughter of his father's dear friend.
