Broderick knew who he was: a peasant, a commoner, a nobody, at best a stable boy. Why was it proving impossible for everyone else to see him for who he truly was? Especially her! Ever since Princess Charlotte had ordered him to ride with her to the old mill, his life had been turned upside down with no one granting him the right to choose his own future. With every new situation that befell him with the princess, Broderick only felt the chains tightening about him, the cell door in the castle dungeon looming that much closer, and the hangman's noose appearing more and more a sure certainty to soon be draping about his neck. 

And what was all this nonsense that the princess kept repeating that she herself was no different than the animals under his care: that she was only something to be bartered for, and that none of her own dreams for herself could ever be attained? Why had she chosen him of all the people in the castle to share her deepest sentiments and hopes with, continuing to intrude into what had once been a simple life, and vexing him to no end with all of her questions?

A simple life? A certain, if forgettable and humble future? Was that not what most men only hoped for? Yet, it appeared as the months and the years passed by, despite his assured unworthiness, Broderick found himself being forced into becoming someone he was not and being given responsibilities for the realm that were beyond his humble beginnings and lesser abilities. Truly, all he had a talent for was the care of the horses and of the barns.

Yet, just as dire as these troubling circumstances were Princess Charlotte's own words to him: "When all is done. When you have accomplished all that I ask. Come for me. Come for me for I will be waiting. Only for you, Broderick. For no other."

How could she make such claims upon him? Yet, it was not only Princess Charlotte who would deny him his true status. There were others of royal position who had other plans for Broderick too.All Rights Reserved

Reborn in the 1980s: I became a stepmother in the 1980s Ⅱ by TiggerBrian

Once she opened her eyes, Si Nian became the fake wealthy daughter straight out of a period drama, only to be sent back to the countryside to marry a divorced man in place of the real wealthy daughter, and on top of that, she had to raise a bunch of brats. Not only that, she also ran into the reincarnated real wealthy daughter. In her previous life, Lin Si Si was pressured by her family to marry an older divorced man who treated her coldly and indifferently. Meanwhile, Si Nian, who stole her wealthy daughter status, married a military officer and lived a sweet and happy life. In her second chance at life, she was determined to steal Si Nian's military officer husband and make her taste the bitterness she had endured. But the real wealthy daughter's plans didn't go as expected. Instead, Si Nian stayed by the side of the older man, amassed a fortune of billions, and her children flourished. When she was brought before the older man, Si Nian was not at all flustered: "This is the man who would rather help others raise children and adamantly refuses to have his own." While others avoided him, Si Nian's eyes lit up: "Firstly, being a mother is a noble act, and secondly, I will be a great stepmother." Years later, after the real wealthy daughter dealt with the military officer's illegitimate child and was robbed of her inheritance, she found herself in unbearable misery. She thought to herself, even if it's not ideal, it's still better than how Si Nian is living. Having children or not, raising others' children - what's the difference from being a nanny? But one day, that terrifyingly cold and fierce wealthy man, who was now tenderly supporting the pregnant Si Nian out of the car, cradled her in his hands with such affection that it was beyond measure. Si Nian angrily pulled the man's hair, "Didn't you say you didn't want children!" The older man gently kissed her hand, "Wife, I was wrong. I'll consider having one next time."

Someone said tapping me on the shoulder and derailing my train of thought. Weird, how did he know my name, I hadn't even talked to anyone yet, I barely spoke to the women giving out the welcome portfolios. Who on Gods green planet could know me here? It couldn't be Lina, she was most definitely still flirting with the boy at the desk and at any rate it was a man standing behind me. Turning around and taking my first look at him there was something familiar about him. It was the boy Lina had hand picked for me to date just a few moments before. Maybe it was meant to be I internally laughed at myself, fat chance. But there was something else about the tall boy with soft brown curls shaping his face, defined cheekbones, and piercing green eyes staring down at me. He had to be more than a random boy from across the room but what was it? Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. Those eyes had haunted me for years. Green globes that I hadn't seen in what, nine years? It couldn't be could it? Was it really him. "Harry?" | *** (This is my first time doing this so bear with me. Thanks!

The Lost Life of Laraine by BearGoRawr

She lead a rather tragic life. The black sheep of her family due to her lack of affinity for fire. Her affinity was quite the opposite. Water in fact. Already in a time when women did not really have much political power or rights, she was outcasted by her family despite being of nobility. Still allowed to live in the distant west wing of the massive Grand Duke's manor, she has never eaten a single meal with her family nor extended family, and has spent her loneliness in her books and sword lessons. Although only taught by the head butler and one of the low ranked knights of the family, she was quite bright and if her family would have given her a chance she would have done great things. If only she didn't die at such a young age. Married off to some "hero" of sort that had slayed the Dragon of the North who was terrorizing the land and threatened the kingdom, this hero also had an affinity for fire and held her in disdain like the rest of her family. Suddenly a girl of another world was transported to their world, picked up by this hero and put into his secure care. The pair soon fell for each other despite the hero's marriage, and many believed Laraine got jealous of this girl of mystery, and tried to kill her. This was definitely not true. But because the girl was favored by the temple and kingdom Laraine was quickly arrested and put on trial. You can probably tell what happened to Laraine. But something strange happened the day of her execution. As soon as her decapitated head hit the ground the sky turned blood red and it began to rain fire. No one survived that day. But for some reason time went back, and Laraine was back to being a child, but with no memory of her future. There were select few in her life, however, that remembered her tragedy and now perhaps will take action to prevent it. NOTE: I'M AWARE THERE ARE A LOT OF INCONSISTENCIES. IT WILL BE EDITED SOME DAY BUT RIGHT NOW I'M JUST TRYING TO FINISH IT.

Rosebriar by Skyewalkerr

[A/N]: Hey guys! Before I post this story, I was going to give a little insight. A very good friend of mine and I decided to write this book, and what better way to recieve constructive critcism than to share with everyone here on wattpad? I'm proud to say that we're nearly finished with it, around three to five more chapters need to be written. However, I will gladly post two chapters a week. Depending on the length, I could possibly split each chapter in two. Enjoy! -Skye & Jasmine My attempts to sleep failed miserably as realization hit me. Tonight was my last night unattached to someone. I swung my legs to one side of the bed. My bare feet brushed the cold floor and sent shivers up my spine. Scotland is much warmer this time of year. I took a few steps toward the window, but before I got too far I heard chatter just outside my door. "She’ll never be happy with him." The first voice, a female, was barely audible. "She could be. She’s just upset about Benjamin." A second voice, a man, replied to the woman. "She’ll never love Derick." A hint of anger played beneath the surface of the woman’s voice. I lay back down after that, so much for Emma accepting our marriage. Unhappiness coursed through my body and I became furious. I’d never love Emma either; with that I went to sleep. I dreamt of my mother singing in the castle, her voice was loud and demanding. Her words flowed so freely from her mouth and danced playfully down the halls. She was in the throne room singing to my father just as she always did. Her song was about the way she learned to love my father. Most marriages in Scotland are arranged, and due to our beliefs they have to work out. My mother had always been so madly in love with my father, but he was hesitant because he had to leave the woman he loved so dearly. So he let her go…

Waltz of Sinners by 102030il

"Why did you do it?" "Hmmm" "Why did you do it if you loved him so much?" "Because sometimes aunt Rebekah, love, isn't enough" According to Seraphina Von Potter, insanity was a relative term; after all, you never know who has been locked in what cage. Seraphina had a locked cage too-one that she keeps locked deep in her mind because pretending it doesn't exist is much easier than acknowledging it. After all, one doesn't come out sane when you grow up with a soul shard stuck in your head-an old headmaster who raised her like a genuine pig for slaughter. The British wizarding world has always put Dumbledore on a pedestal; they worshipped the ground he walked on, and maybe it was one of the reasons that they were selectively blind to all his faults and shortcomings, but Dumbledore knew better. He knew that, contrary to popular belief, he was no match for Tom Riddle. He was desperate, and when he saw a young child with the bluest eyes he had ever seen that sang with unhinged power and the blood of the oldest vampire family, he couldn't help but take her. Yet, despite all of his plans, Dumbledore didn't account for Peverell. He wasn't prepared for the kind of madness that ran in the blood of a Peverell, lest one be as powerful as her. After all, Hope Mikaelson, or Seraphina Von Potter, has always had a very special connection with death. Death was there when she was born, and she was there when Hope became Seraphina. Tom Riddle x Hope Mikaelson (in the beginning) Rhysand x Hope Mikaelson (endgame)

Chimera Awakened by k-c-gilliland

He gave me a feline smile as he stalked toward me. I backed away until my heels hit the stall wall and he took advantage of my surprise by stepping in to me, his body a mere whisper from mine. "That's good, Evelyn," he murmured and brushed a strand of hair behind my ear. My heart was pounding and I knew my face was betraying everything I was feeling. Damn him. I didn't want to feel this excited clench in my stomach. I didn't want to feel this longing for him. "What are you doing?" My voice was shakier than I would've hoped and far too breathy. "Something I've wanted to do for a very long time." *************************************************** Two hundred years after a powerful sorceress eliminated all modern technology and most of Earth's population, the people left behind live happily with no electricity, no motorized machinery - no advanced technology of any kind. However, many of them now possess magical gifts that were once considered myth. Evelyn Kentala, a talented horse trainer, is an empath and uses her gift to understand animals. Her abilities don't allow her to know the emotions of people - or so she thinks. When Broderick Ryan, the next leader of his and Evelyn's province, returns home after being gone for five years, Evelyn discovers she's much more than an empathic horse trainer. Frightening and rare abilities begin to manifest and she's left reeling when she discovers why. Evelyn and Broderick find themselves drawn to each other as they discover the secrets of her unknown past and fight to keep themselves, and their province, safe from those who wish them harm.
