***Warning: Explicit Sexual Content***
Lavinia gripped her sister's elbow, as the dinner guests mingled in the garden, champagne flutes in hand.
"What is the matter? You look... um, belligerent."
"I'm going to be imprisoned for crimes against the crown before this night is over, sister," Elizabeth said, with a good dose of malice, and swiftly downed the contents of her glass, in a most unladylike way.
"Care to explain before we go in for dinner?"
"I wish I could explain, but I really don't know where to begin, and I'm afraid you are the last person I should be telling my tale to."
Lavinia looked puzzled.
"Try me."
Elizabeth sighed, wishing she did not have a sister who had chosen to live the rest of her life married to God. She was supposed to be the one person she could go to and talk about womanly things, damn her eyes.
"All I will say is that earlier today I had an unfortunate encounter with my betrothed... and his... um..." she fumbled for the right word. She supposed penis was the correct, scientific term, but saying the word seemed plain wrong in the presence of her pious sister. She therefore made a vague, awkward, wave-like gesture in the general area of her middle, blushing furiously.
Had Lavinia been drinking champagne, she might have choked on it, but thankfully, she did not indulge in spirits. She did look, however, aghast.
"I beg your pardon?"
Elizabeth shook her head, turning her attention to the other side of the terrace, where the king and queen were calling their guests' attention. This was not the time, nor the place to divulge any further details.
"Well, speak of the devil..." Elizabeth muttered, snatching another glass of champagne from a nearby valet.

Set in a fictonal kindgom, this is the story of Elizabeth who begrudgingly arrives at the royal palace to finally wed Henry, the haughty prince to  whom she had been promised since they were chldren.All Rights Reserved

My husbands first love by Luciferbest12

** "Maximilian?" I blink at her silently. She just called my name. By my name. Instead of feeling repulsed and detested by that sound I instead can't feel anything anymore. All I can see is her. My breath stops for a moment again. Just like back in the tent. "Yes it's me." I say, quickly looking away from her side. "Why are you here?" She asks me coldly taking my hand away from her cheek. She then sits up straight in the sofa, far from me. I silently drop my hand back to my lap. I kind of felt disappointed. "Why can't I be here? Can't a husband visit his wife whenever he wants?" She shakes her head. "You're not like other husbands. And I'm not like other wives. You're a husband that's still hung up on their first love. And I'm a wife that wants nothing to do with you." She says with her tired eyes, after having slept only for 2 hours. _____________________________ Maximillian, the Emperor of the Kaisenarch Empire, who still love his first love. Elizabeth, the Empress that only wanted her husbands love She had taken years to realize, that maybe her marriage was always doomed, from the beginning. And her feelings will never be reciprocated. She falls first, he falls harder trope. ______________________________ This is a story I wanted to make from "A stepmother's marchen" or "The fantasy of a stepmother". With the characters Maximillian and Elizabeth. I so badly wanted to see their relationship Develop. None of this is my own

Lunch With Charlie by TaniHanes

?WATTPAD FEATURED STORY ? Jane Bennett Carroway has had to live with being named for the pretty Bennett sister in the famous Austen work her whole life. When her beautiful best friend Camilla wins a contest to have lunch with teen heartthrob Charles McAllister, she recruits Jane to be her unwilling plus-one. Jane tags along because she's loyal to Camilla - and secretly loves Charles a bit, too. At lunch, Charlie is taken with Jane. Unlike every other girl he meets, she doesn't order salad. She doesn't kiss his ass. And perhaps most importantly - she orders dessert. Join Jane and Charlie on their [top-secret] journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance - and a love that might change their lives forever. ? "Hello, ladies," he said, smiling. "I'm Charles Michael McAllister." "I'm Jane," Jane said, holding out her hand. Charles took it, but didn't let go when she expected him to, and she nearly fell onto the table. "I gave my full name, I believe it's only polite to reciprocate in kind?" he said with a little smirk. Jane huffed out a breath. "Jane Bennett Carroway," she said. He looked at Jane in surprise. "I'm sorry, but did you say 'Jane Bennett'?" "Yes, that's my name," she replied, as if it were completely normal. Charles flashed Jane a grin. "You must have very interesting parents," he remarked. He challenged her again later. "I guess you liked your food," he said, looking pointedly at her empty plate. "I guess you did, too, Charlie," Jane responded evenly, gesturing to his equally clean plate. "In fact, I want dessert." And she gave Charles an openly challenging look. Charles knew that the beautiful Camilla was the girl who'd won the contest, the girl he was supposed to be talking to. But he found his gaze drawn again and again to the tall, thin girl, with the wispy blonde hair, huge appetite, and beautiful eyes, eyes that held a glimmer of attitude. He couldn't even remember the last time anyone had talked back to him. Interesting.

a thousand instincts (#1) by writeraliciagonzalez

Life Lesson #1: If you are planning on going to a nightclub in the middle of sketchy, dark woods, don't. Life Lesson #2: If there are too many attractive, healthy people in said nightclub, be alarmed and rethink Life Lesson #1. Life Lesson #3: If you were foolish enough to ignore rules 1 and 2, I suggest you haul ass. Aeress is one of those special people who obviously need a couple more life lessons... ----------------------------------------------------------------- He chuckled. It was dry but it was an addictive sound. "No," he brought his nose against her collar, "not at all." His lips skimmed over her exposed skin. She sighed at his touch, riding the sweet, overwhelming waves that came with. "You've barely touched me," Aeress had her hands skimming up the back of his neck and in between his strands. "And I'm falling apart." His voice was a little hollow and this worried her. "The bond we have is responsible for that." She tugged at him until he looked up. For a moment she just basked in how handsome he was. "I don't think so," she leaned in for a kiss, "I think that you are just about the most fascinating man I have ever met. And we have only just met. I don't think a bond can simply erase the will of an independent woman like me." His eyes came to life with a blazing fire. He closed the distance between them and kissed sensation back into her body, setting off every nerve in her flesh. Everything came to a boiling point, sizzling with need. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ °°MATURE AND EXPLICIT CONTENT OF ALL KINDS, AND I MEAN ALL KINDS°° Highest Rank: #7 in Werewolf, #79 in Romance

The Enchanting Rapture (#1) by writeraliciagonzalez

In a world of monsters, is it possible to find the beauty in each other? Ice melts... Power ignites... Bonds forge... Just in time to clash with the impending storm on its way. ----------------------------------------------------------------- "I think you have lost your mind," Soren suddenly muttered. Then it happened: Annika grinned. A glowing warmth lit inside, heating her cold interior. There was something extraordinary about the simplicity put into a grin. The anguish lessoned, and suddenly anything was possible. Surely the sky could fall if Annika could smile? "What makes you say that?" She asked as she continued her movements. The grin acted as a soothing balm on her aching heart. Annika might've been crazy to become so easily uplifted by an everyday facial expression, but crazy seemed like a much better term to be than slave. "Only a lunatic would approach me in my slumber." His eyes remained shut, and he didn't object to her petting, so Annika didn't stop. "Well... you wouldn't know if you were asleep?" "Mmm," the sound vibrated like a guttural hum, "I awoke the second you entered." "Did you?" Annika asked as she turned her head to study his face, but this time, his eyes were open, revealing those beautiful pits of colorless depths. --------------------------------------------------------------- (WARNING: MATURE CONTENT OF ALL KINDS *EMPHASIS ON THE ALL PART*) Highest Rank: 48 (thanks to you beautiful creatures)

[START : 21 JULY, 2020] [COMPLETE : 19 AUGUST, 2023] #1 in murder #1 in Possessive He kissed me back with urgency, at last pulling my bottom lip between his teeth, ridding his cock as hard as he could. Next he attached his mouth with my breasts, sucking them like his favourite candy while sinking his teeth on my flesh with possession. "I am obsessed with you." He groaned, kissing my neck as suddenly tears commenced to gather in my eyes. I didn't want to hear that from him, all I want to know is, he loves me. But that never came from his mouth.

Anneliese || ✎ by pitifulkisses

As long as I have you. *Description still in progress.* Anneliese is a sweet, kind, empathetic, and outgoing young woman. Often looking for new ways to meet friends, she wouldn't pass the opportunity to chat someone up. Even a stranger at the diner she works at. With new people in her life she has to decide what's true and what was made up to "protect her." Who she decides to love and trust will form a path of new consequences. ~ ❀ ~ I can't help but stare at her. Her face, lips, and smile, and her nose. Even her long, curled lashes. "Let's do a butterfly kiss!" She exclaims, pulling my face close suddenly. Kiss? My heart hammers in my chest, my breath hitching. Her small hands hold my face close to hers. It's not very forceful, I could pull away if I wanted to, but I let her have control. Her hands are warm and soft against my jaw. Getting closer, her eyes lashes flutter and I find myself holding my breath. She brushes her lashes to mine, her breath fanning against my lips. Subconsciously, I lean forward, wanting my lips to be on hers. June flutter her lashes, grazing her lashes to mine. Out of nowhere she bursts out in a fit of laughter. I flinch back. Butterfly kiss. That was not a fucking kiss. ~ ❀ ~ *Warning* Mature themes will be covered (language, actions, etc).

His and only his... by melody1239

"What do you want now?" she said gritting her teeth as he got closer and closer by every second. "I want nothing else but you Angel..."he whispered, his mouth inches away from her lips. "Can't you see that i don't want you? You're a pervert, a monster, a beast, a freaking werewolf for the love of god!" she screamed, backing away until she touched the wall and froze, realizing there was no way to escape anymore. Taking this as an advantage he slammed his hands on each side of the wall making it harder for her to move, and whispered "That's why you're shutting me out then... Why can't you fucking understand that you're the only girl I want? And you're obviously resisting your feelings towards me, I know you fucking want this shorty." He said before pushing his lips on hers taking her breath away, and her first kiss too... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Lorraine Queen, aka Lou, is a 17 years old average girl. She would describe herself in only two words: boring and average. She thinks that no one would fall in love with her because of her average looks and boring personality and she also thinks that she'll never find the right guy, but what if a certain goddess chose to mate her with a certain powerful Alpha? Ryan Ganzhorn, 23 years old, most powerful, fearless, intimidating and sexiest Alpha on this planet, is known for his heartless actions, most difficult decisions and his determination to get everything he wants whenever he wants. Will Lorraine be an easy mate ? or will she make a difficult prey? This story isn't edited yet, but there aren't huge mistakes, just small grammatical ones. (please do not steal my ideas)

Barracks (War of Hearts) by 2Hearts_write

--Completed-- "Why are you following me?" "I am free to roam anywhere within Barracks, am I not?" "Aldaire will be displeased if he sees us together." He grins, leaning in close to whisper in my ear. "Will he? Last time I checked, you two are merely playing a part." I place a finger on his lips, acutely aware of our proximity yet taken aback by it all. "Don't utter such things. They can hear you." "So it is true. I wasn't present that day, but Himley made sure to fill me in." There's no need to persist with the charade, but if I concede too readily, I'm not fulfilling my role adequately. This is going to be challenging, especially given his annoying demeanor. "I don't know what you're talking about. Aldaire is a noble man." "Then how do his lips taste?" Hiccup! "That is none of your concern, sir." "Why do you take offense? It was an innocent question." "It was not! I am inebriated. Why are you pursuing me? And be honest this time. If you intend to kill me like the rest, I'll make things easier for you." His silence prompts me to look up. His lips are drawn into a thin line as he glares at me. "Do you hold me in such low regard?" "I don't know you," I retort. "That is why I am here. We can acquaint ourselves with each other." His laughter reverberates in the empty space, prompting a grin from me. It makes me blush at the thought. Perhaps it's the alcohol causing me to hallucinate, but the idea of someone vying for my affections is amusing. "I relish challenges, Lady Leizabeth. Give me some time, and you'll see." "I don't understand why." "Because you are a fascinating woman. The moment I laid eyes on you, I knew I had to get to know you." **In the journey of life, we stumble upon love twice. The first shatters your heart into countless fragments; the second conjures up the power of the universe to piece it back together. **

Finding True Love by ChannelleJadeSands

Things had gone down hill and your life had taken a turn for the worst, but when you bumped into a famous but familiar face things began again for you with a little more spice than you were used to. Henry moves you both backwards towards the plush sofa that is situated against the back wall. As Henry sits himself down, he pulls you on top so you are now straddling him. Suddenly aware you are naked beneath the robe your eyes go wide and you try to lean up on your knees. "What are you doing?" Henry whispers. "Well I'm, kind of naked beneath the robe." You reply coyly. "That's a shame." He pulls you down onto him roughly and wraps his hand round the back of your neck to pull you into him again.
