In the hopes of laying low, she decides to stay as far away from drama as humanly possible, and finish high school with her head to the ground. That plan gets thrown out the window rather quickly when she joins the Stone Twins' friend group-against her will, mind you-and becomes entangled in a feud between two powerful families. Her parents told her to stay away, and maybe she should have listened, but now she has no choice but to see it through. There is something dangerous lurking in the forest, and Alyssa knows she shouldn't play in the wolf's den, but she's already trapped in a world she has no understanding of but can't escape. A heritage of something mystical and unnatural is waiting for her, and she's already followed the beast into its lair. Now it's a game of 'fight to survive or die trying' and Alyssa has no intention of giving up. Not when there's so much at stake. So much for a quiet, drama-free year... •••• An urban fantasy high school romance featuring werewolves, cryptic magical entities and one (1) very confused human girl. •••• Updates weekly :)
Shadow of the Prince by CSMeyerA
34 parts Complete Mature
"A fantastical cross between the Beauty and the Beast and ACOTAR." A prince, a witch, and a wolf are tied together by the sins of their parents. Can they break free of the secrets that bind them, or will the Kingdom of Eidas forever be under a terrible curse? Dalia Leary, the eighteen-year-old daughter of an outcast Seer and a downtrodden merchant, lives in a city steeped in lore and magic, where the gods rule the seasons and the noble half-bloods rule the people. The kingdom of Eidas is down on its luck, facing mass starvation and economic failure from prolonged droughts. Dal's mother seems certain that there is a strange, simple solution to both their problems and those of Eidas'. Dal just has to marry the Prince of Eidas, Prince Tullvomm. Easy, right? Of course not. The Prince is nearly ten years her senior, and engaged to be married to the beautiful Princess of the East. She is nothing more besides a common girl from Bridgewater Avenue. Besides the obvious issues of his princess fiancée and her very un-noble birth, there's one other small little problem - Prince Tullvomm is never seen without his pitch-black wolf at his side - his beastly protector. The more Dal tries to get close to the Prince, the more the ghastly wolf seems to always get in the way. Dal realizes that to get access to the Prince she must either befriend the beast or slay him, and though part dog he may be, the beast doesn't seem the type to lie down and roll over. In fact, the more time Dal spends around the creature the less sure she is that he is a dog at all.

Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal.

In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line.

She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.
