1824. Nobility. Love. Power.

It unravels the intricate threads of love, loyalty, and societal expectations in the grandeur of 19th-century Werlington Peninsula. Amid whispers of betrayal and ambition, Stefan and Hadrian find themselves entangled in a web of family honor and forbidden passions that threatens to shatter the fragile legacy.

Stefan, caught between his restless heart and the rigid expectations of his station, begins a journey of self-discovery, exploring not only the world beyond Clynford's stately walls but also the unspoken tensions within. Hadrian, with his quiet yet magnetic presence, becomes an enigma Stefan cannot easily disregard-a force that complicates already strained loyalties. 

As desires clash with the demands of tradition and alliances shift in ways neither anticipated, long-buried secrets rise to the surface, threatening to unravel their carefully maintained facades. The story delves into the delicate dance between the heart and the crown, asking how far each will go to protect their truth in a world where appearances mean everything.

Cry-Baby by braycriss

I wiped my eyes once again to see deep piercing green ones looking down at me. More tears came as I saw the root of my anger, and I stood up pushing past him. I tried to run but got pulled back by a hand grabbing my wrist. "What happened?" Clyde demanded angrily. "Get off of me!" I growled and pried his fingers off my wrist and continued to the bathroom. Once inside I went into a stall and grabbed some toilet paper to wipe my face. Why was I always crying? I heard the door open and I tried to contain my sniffling so that they wouldn't hear. Then I looked down to see the feet and saw Clyde crawling under my stall. ~~~~~ Alexa Moore is a crybaby. She can't deal well with her emotions; if she is frustrated, angry, sad, mad, or hurt she can't help but cry. She hates that she always feels the need to cry and tries to stay happy by being unconfrontational, and staying away from jerks. Clyde Wood is seemingly heartless. Through the bad, sad, hurtful, and pissing situations he appears to be tougher than nails. Sure he is happy most times, but in the eyes of many he is a heartless jerk that picks on everyone. If it wasn't for his great looks he'd probably be with the Gothic kids, not the popular ones. That, and he made a hobby of being a player. Alexa meeting Clyde was definitely a recipe for disaster, causing her to shed more tears than in her entire 17 years. The year goes from good to bad to good to bad, and end bad? With so much heart churning events, will there really be a rainbow after the storm?
