♚  Period drama ♚
Summary: With war knocking at their the door, Lady Rowena Rice is forced to marry a prince from a foreign country and move abroad, leaving behind her family and her life. Despite initially hating everything and wanting to run away, she finds herself falling in love with her new home, its traditions and its people. But will she also fall in love with her husband?

Authro's note: And I'm back with another period drama! I had been wanting to write one with Rúben for a long time, and I finally found the inspiration to do it 😁
This is a spin-off of "Little Poppy", my story with Declan Rice, and there are nods to it here and there, but you don't need to have read one to follow the other.
It took me ages to find a title until I settled for Granada. It is a city in the south of Spain that inspired me while picturing Rúben's kingdom (if you have watched "Game of Thrones", think Dorne), but it also is the Spanish word for pomegranate, a fruit that will be meaningful throughout the story for both Rúben and Rowena.
This has been one of the stories I've enjoyed the most writing, so I hope you like it as much. And, as always, thank you for reading! 💜

WAR IN ALDORIA: SHADOWS OF THE THRONE. by Rya_Robyn
6 parts Ongoing Mature
"There's a saying my people use in times like this" "Like this?... how often do you people get tied up to trees in the forest at midnight?!" I snapped "Do you wanna hear the saying or not?" I sigh "Fine...what is the stupid saying, oh I mean the wise proverb you galshitters use" I roll my eyes I hear him chuckle softly at the other side of the tree "It goes... when you lock your heart, the walls you build become your own prison" I take a deep breath before speaking "HOW THE HELL DOES THAT APPLY HERE?!!?!!" Princess Isadora is the third daughter of the six royal siblings of Aldoria. Her Father the king is growing ill and soon has to step down so her oldest brother, Elias, can take to the throne. With threats of war against neighboring kingdoms, Isadora has been chosen, more like forced to marry Prince Lysander of Galdora, in order for their kingdoms to find peace with each other. Isadora is not your typical kind, caring Snow White of a princess, she's harsh, mean and even cruel. She might look nice but her heart is allergic to love and affection, the very thought of being in love with someone and being a wife to a man is repulsive to her. Lysander on the other hand, has a cold and stoic persona, or so people think. He's actually a very kindhearted person who can't bear the sight of others suffering. But that doesn't mean he's weak, he can be very hotheaded and strict if it comes down to it. Maybe he's too confident, flirty and cocky, but he's still a good person. Sometimes. Both are very stubborn and don't take no for an answer. But now that they don't have a choice but to be wedded for the benefit of their kingdoms, will they be able to open their hearts and give in to their growing attraction for one another, or will the pressures of war get to them first?

If you enjoy hot and steamy fairy tales, this story is for you. In this grown-up version of the famous fairy tale, Princess Adara is running from her old life and a forced betrothal. Adara wants love and passion, but knows she can't get them back home. When a raging storm halts her escape, Adara seeks refuge in the first dwelling she sees. Prince Richard is tired of the trite, vain, frigid princesses his mother introduces him to in hopes he'll marry. On this stormy night, he's in the mood to love a woman, but he's all alone. Adara arrives on the castle doorstep, saying she's a princess in need of help. The queen is doubtful and decides to lock Adara in a room with a pea to determine if the girl is as royal as she claims. Richard believes the beautiful, charming stranger, but he wants her locked in a bedroom for other reasons. When Richard and Adara hook up, there's more than a pea-sized bit of passion involved....(This is an adult fairy tale.) The story is complete on Wattpad.
