His cold hands balled into fists. He could not stray his eyes away from the beauty in front of him and he hated it. Something like this, something like her, could be seen as a weakness. And he had no weaknesses. She would have to die.
Briar Rose chooses one day to walk a different route and it changes her life. Deep, deep inside the dark forest, she meets a stranger who had not expected to meet someone so beautiful.
A girl with the gold of morning sun in her hair, lips that could bring any rose to shame and singing such a melody unmatched, is standing there before him.

Rose never believed in fairytales-until the moon followed her, a gate opened, and the world she knew quietly folded away. Now she's trapped in Wonderland without ever hearing the legend of the girl who came before her. A girl the kingdom still whispers about. A girl everyone seems to think she is. But Rose isn't Alice. At least... she thinks she isn't. Crowned courtiers with velvet smiles offer protection. Mirrors murmur her name like a prophecy. And a cursed Mad Hatter, beautiful and broken, looks at her as though losing her once nearly destroyed him- and finding her again might finish the job. Wonderland is dying under a charming new king who wants Rose by his side, claiming only he can keep her safe. The Hatter begs her to remember someone she has never been. And the Heart of Wonderland itself seems to be... choosing her. To save a world she doesn't understand, Rose must survive magical bargains, seductive lies, and the madness whispering at the edges of her soul. She doesn't know who Alice was. But Wonderland does. And the kingdom will not rest until Rose becomes her- or breaks the story apart trying. In a land where love can curse, memory can wound, and crowns are carved from devotion and nightmare... Rose must decide whether she will inherit another girl's destiny- or write her own.Complete

Thorn | Neville Longbottom
Briar watched him with curiosity as he shuffled closer. He stumbled when he neared her but managed to steady himself before he fell. He slightly blushed and stuck out his hand with the dandelion in it. He murmured, "For you." She felt something odd happen in her chest. It felt like fluttering, she thought, but she tried to push these feelings away. She didn't want to acknowledge them. She didn't want them to be real. // Briar was just trying to survive her schooling at Hogwarts with the constant trouble her fellow students seemed to start, but the Ministry of Magic was determined to help each student find their soulmate through a series of letters and hints over their years at Hogwarts.

FALLEN FOR A BAD BOY {BAD MEETS BADDEST}
She witnessed horror... and became one. After surviving a harrowing near-rape and watching her best friend brutally assaulted and murdered before her eyes, Aurora vanished-emotionally. What rose from the ashes was someone unrecognizable: Cold. Fearless. Savage. Untouchable. She trusts no one. Loves no one. And as far as she's concerned, no man alive could ever break through her fortress of ice. Love? Dead. Her rules? Simple. No emotions. No attachments. No second chances. But her new college? A battlefield. And him? Leonard Grande - the kind of trouble she didn't prepare for. Wounded. Rebellious. Addictive. Dangerous. A walking paradox with a face carved by gods and a soul damaged by demons. A notorious playboy who takes pleasure in breaking girls, shredding hearts like paper-because he believes every girl is a liar in disguise. Until Aurora. She doesn't look at him like he matters. She doesn't fall. She doesn't even flinch. And that pisses him off. Now it's war. A toxic game of destruction and seduction. She wants to erase him. He wants to ruin her. But when secrets from the past start surfacing, both realize they've been walking in the dark... and maybe-just maybe-they were destined to collide. How deep do their scars go? And who's really pulling the strings in this web of pain and passion. Dive into a dark college romance where love is a weapon, trust is deadly, and only the strongest survive. When bad meets baddest... there are no rules. Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of sexual violence, emotional trauma, murder, psychological manipulation, and abusive behavior.
