A knife in the back. A bullet through the heart. A poison in the blood. A shatter in the mind. A blow to the head. A rebellion in the streets. The war has begun.
With all 5 of the rulers of Elvlossea either killed or mad, the challenge for the throne is open. And there are many who wish for it.
A trial during war time is not new, but it is not common. And 5 young members of each kingdom will compete.
The call shall be answered and the throne won once again. But the crown will come down the the 5:
The Royal
Prince Adam was taken away from his home at a young age. Growing up in the forest and training to one day take back his rightful throne, and a crown he doesn't even want.
The Pheasant
Amaryllis was taken away from her family in the poorest district of the South. Supposed to achieve a long and fulfilling life as an Oracle, it all came crashing down when the monarchy fell. Now she fights for a chance at the glory that was taken from her.
The Heartless
Evangeline grew up in an abusive household. Skilled with weapons and a knack for violence, Evangeline will kill anyone and everything that stands in her path.
The Soldier
A former member of the Royal Guard, Lauren loved her duty. But now there is no guard and no home for her to return to. Winning the trial is the only way for her to find honour.
The Liar
A thief, scammer, liar and runt like Warden shouldn't be left alive. But doing these things are the only ways to survive in the West, the kingdom the most destroyed. Winning the throne could solve all of the West's problems, if Warden could find the courage to do so.
What happens when these young outcasts with failed pasts meet and develop a forbidden friendship?

Roses for Rachel
I was sure the worst thing to ever happen to me would be being kidnapped, and sure, that was pretty bad. However, what was worse was being kidnapped, held captive for years, and then being auctioned off to the highest bidder. I thought maybe I had caught a little break when I found out that me and five other girls were being sold to royalty, but I should have known something about that wasn't right either. Under the cover of eternal darkness, and deep beneath the ground, was a whole world I never even dreamed existed in my wildest dreams. It was a world that promised to be more than anything I could imagine. The people who bought us told us we would have the luxurious life of a princess, but there were only two catches... 1. We would be competing against each other for the affection of the Prince who would change our whole lives by picking one of us to rule at his side. 2. That prince just happened to be a vampire.Complete

For Her Favor
"This man had sought revenge for me and made a spectacle for it. He had protected my crown. He also answered my questions vaguely and I was nowhere closer to figuring him out than when he first arrived, but I was drawn to him. Like an addict to a drug, damn I wanted to be close to him. I wanted his touch. There was no sane explanation for it, it was just a want, a need." Princess Esme was never supposed to be Queen, but when tradgedy strikes in her Fae kingdom, she is forced to bear the crown. In Amoria, the Kingdom of Love and Life, she must battle with the patriarchy now to keep it. They want a king on the throne and she wants a chance at true love like the rest of her people. To placate the nobles in her kingdom that have a grip on her power, she agrees to the Battle of Hearts-a competition where eligible princes from other kingdoms compete for her favor and to be named king. Everything Esme knows is about to be challenged and not everything will be as it seems. In the end she'll have to choose; her kingdom or her heart.Complete

WINNER OF ROUND 9 - "A NEW WORLD" Something different for me to stretch my writing skills and get back into one of the things I love most in my life - to create stories. this 'work' idea has been created by Ambassadors here for this "Write to Rank Contest 2022" - each chapter (round) to be written from a prompt given by the contest creators. The first round is a very quick read indeed, - a DRABBLE - a story of exactly 100 words, no more, no less; however much ACTION. ROUND 5 - MORE twists and turns in this unexpected but amazing challenge - mashing up fantasy and action - battles; legends exposed under-cover; flying with eagles; a rare mental condition called today "Boanthropy" - seemingly of fantasy but a historic king suffered 7 years from it! Not a witch - maybe not even an 'Angel' - more human than she seems... "IS IT REAL?" https://www.wattpad.com/myworks/312958420/write/1244685929 UPDATE - ALL required NINE parts have been written and submitted!

THIS STORY IS FOR A CONTEST!!! ~~~ 12 princes 4 weeks 1 choice What can go wrong? Everything!

But nothing is easy for Elide, especially when her father has the right to make the final choice. But don't let that bring you down because Elide has a plan. She is going to escape this choosing... The news of 4 murders in one night has been spread all over the kingdom. That is nothing weird on a huge kingdom, right? Wrong! 4 princes have been murdered, no one knows who did this, people have chosen their suspects but nothing makes sense.

A trap is been set. Does she fall for it? Only time can tell.

"Are you sure you're one of the girls? You seem like a spy to me. Are you spy, Arabella?" My name rolled of his tongue perfectly and I stood completely still as he took another step closer to me. "You know, it's my job to eliminate spies." "Eliminate me huh? I'd like to see you try." I was surprised by my response, just as much as he was, and he raised one of his perfectly shaped eyebrows at me. "Is that a challenge? I like a challenge." *** I never wanted any of the lives set out for me. Unfortunately in the new world where the monarchy has taken over, there was never a choice for a girl like me.

"Evangeline," He exhaled tightly, a thick vein bulging in his forehead as he shut his eyes tight, brushing his lips against her bare shoulder, his hold on his gun tightening as he held it in the arm he had wrapped around her torso. "Though this is fucking New Orleans, it will not be the police business, thieves or killers, or even dealers of dark magic, but you, who will be the death of me." ΰΌ πΌ ππ§ππ£πππ¨π¨ ππ£ πππππ£π ππ£π π©ππ πΎππππ π€π ππ€π‘πππ. 1927. When the twenty-four year old Princess of Maldonia and a practicing witch, Evangeline Hamilton's, life is endangered upon the murder of her father, the elder Queen of Maldonia arranges for her sister to be sent to New Orleans for her safety where the Princess finds herself sentenced to living in secret. The New Orleans Police Department is charged to primarily guard the life of the Maldonian royal while protecting her identity, but things get personal when Evangeline comes across the adamant, stoic, infuriatingly closed off presence of Theodore Stanhope, the Chief of Police of the NOPD, who has dark secrets of his own. Further, when Evange stumbles upon an old empty antique journal, her spiritual life takes a turn for the worse when strange and horrifying occurences begin around her, opening connections with her father's murder and the darkness surrounding the closed off and intimidating Theo Stanhope, and that cursed journal. *[Disney's The Princess and the Frog AU, mature read; violence, eventual smut, horror, gore, slowburn romance, mental health. 18+ only please.]
