All I Need ✔️ by Chronically-Chaotic

"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.

Wonder what would happen to the world if such a seed existed inside a person and it finally bloomed? Synopsis: Briar was made a slave and an orphan on the same day she was born. She serves at the castle she was born in, the court of winter. Everyone can command her to do tasks and she has no freedom to leave. Those at the top of this world are the ruling Fae, next are ruling humans, next Fae, free humans, protected slaves and then the banished ones. At least as a slave she has a chance at earning her freedom from a ruling Fae to pardon her. She is also something more which is discovered as she grows up but she must keep it hidden to protect herself. As she masters her skills, she, along with her friends, are given the opportunity to leave and earn her freedom.

But first she must rescue a prince from a dungeon... (Small warning) Contains suggestions of non consensual sexual relationships of a business kind but no graphic detail.

The King's Captive by AdelineDroit

Princess Victoria of Prussia has always longed for a life beyond the gilded cage of her castle. Sharp-witted and fiercely independent, she finds solace in disguise-spending her days at the modiste, designing gowns, and slipping into the bustling streets of town, where, for a fleeting moment, she can taste freedom. Since childhood, she has known her fate: a political marriage to King Hamish of Scotland, a union meant to strengthen alliances, not hearts. Love was never part of the arrangement, not even apart of her life-until a fateful day in the outskirts of town changes everything. There, she meets the enigmatic Prince Antonio of Spain, a man who sees her not as a pawn in a royal game but as the woman she longs to be. For a year, their secret correspondence ignites a love neither can deny. But time is a cruel mistress, and when Victoria and Antonio reunite, the world they once dreamed of together is no longer the same. Bound by duty yet drawn by desire, Victoria must navigate a treacherous path of sacrifice, betrayal, and impossible choices. Will she follow her heart, or will the weight of the crown crush the love she never expected to find?
