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.

Back in this day and age, royalty no longer wedded royalty, simply because everyone now wanted to marry for love. Which is why a union like ours would have effortlessly drawn the crowd; peharps more enemies than friends. The marriage of a blooded royalty to a birthed royalty. Blue blood to blue blood. A union like ours, was bound to change lives to come, generations, eras even, and unwittingly... The life of my unborn child. BUT EVERYONE'S FORGOTTEN ONE RULE. "For a union to be made, royalty or no royalty, the bride and groom at least have to be present. Vows can't be made, if one of the pair gets missing. Or absent. So what happens when the bride gets kidnapped and killed? No. Don't despair. That's not the end of everything; its just the beginning, for even ghosts and corpses still have to hold on to their important earthly commitments they had, before they died. And as I take in my last couple of breaths, nothing else rips my heart apart more than the fact that my own wedding, that is supposed to have me as its bride, goes on without me. An imposter in my spot? Convenient. I hope she's also prepared to fuck my husband on our wedding night too? Don't they know that Chris knows every inch of the body of the woman he fell in love with? He'd know.. He has to... They'll all have to know... I can't exit this way. ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ♣° ___________________ ∞~•♦|| " I no longer know if I'm dead or alive. A corpse or a ghost.

"Get. inside. the. car. NOW" Asim threatened. I glared at him before looking at the huge guards. and then decided to run for my life. There was something fishy, and hell I will not give up until I know that I'm out of his sight and mind forever. Before I could even run a few feet away, I found myself being thrown on Asim's shoulder. "PUT ME DOWN!!" I screamed, now my senses grabbed the entire scene, and I didn't even know why didn't he want to let me go to my hotel peacefully. He pushed me inside his huge car, treating me no different than a sack of potatoes, I was about to kick him and then try to run again, I found the car being locked and the wheels started running on the cement. I sighed loudly when I found no use of kicking and screaming. "Why are you taking me in your car?!" I growled, pushing his hands away from me. He chuckled. "Because wives in Saudi Arabia, are supposed to go with their husbands to their home!" ------------------------------------------------------------- Normality was never an aspect in a Royal's life. Asim, the fucked up Prince of Saudi Arabia, wasn't your normal Prince. All was kind of normal until he get's stuck in the hardest situation he's ever faced; Either marry the girl his family adores, and himself hate or stop fooling around. But he decided to do neither. He married another girl that he didn't even know, like always, he saw an oppertunity and took it for granted. Malak, however, isn't an easy girl. She will make him hell bent on divorcing her, but when they face the music, they find out that if they don't stick together against the lie he created, they will eventually get in more troubles; Either they fake adoration or Malak gets thrown in a cell for something she didn't do, and he ends up tied down with a snob of a girl. Of course, they stick together. Love always a puzzle becomes a lego they shape in whatever they wanted. It's the lego of the story of the fucked up royalty and his life changing lie-girl.

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."

[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…

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.
