As she is drawn deeper into Edward's icy world, her resolve begins to waver.

Rehana ~ From Slave To Crown di magicallovely

This was my first time. I patiently waited for the man Dua Begum told me would be my first to bed with. After starting to bleed two years ago, my stepmother left me at a pleasure house when my father abandoned us. Since then, I've accepted the pleasure house as my new home. He walked in a black Kurta with subtle green eyes and a deep voice. The moment he asked my name and age and then proposed to me for the wedding, I fell in love. There was no denying it. I was just fifteen, and he was nineteen. But, ever since the night of our wedding, he has not come back to take me with him to his home. He left me alone, stranded, burning for him. I did not know who he was. What did he do? All I knew was that he was the soul of my World. My Jaan-e-Jahan. Seven years later, he came back as a storm in my life. As Sultan Rehman Sulaiman. The son of the man who took everything from my family, even before my birth. The reason I ended up in the Pleasure House in the first place. But my love for my husband, the Sultan, is bigger than the mountains, deeper than the oceans, and wider than the skies, even though he is himself a Mountain, impossible to move, an ocean, scaring people to stay away, and a wide sky, impossible to reach. Discipline is everything for him. He is full of love and respect for his family but equally heartless and dangerous toward those who cross him. And, in all of this, I entered his life as a burning flame, a tiny candle's flame, dancing for his attention, crying for his affection, and dying for his love. Until he killed my only loved one. My love died. And, his never bloomed. I was once a bud, unbloomed Rose, who opened my deep red petals for him, and he turned them black, leaving me forgotten inside the dying pages. Was I always forgotten for him? Did he never consider me anything more than a mere responsibility? Will I always be remembered as Bride of Sultan ~ The Forgotten Rose?

Y/n is a major Frankie fan, and he is one of four people to find a tape within a box of Frankie's Fruit Flakes cereal that invites him and three other lucky contestants onto a game show within a famous trampoline park, Frankie's Parkour Palace. The contestants must complete difficult parkour platforming while avoiding the place's violent mascots. At first, Y/n is all pumped up and ready to be part of the game show he always wanted to participate in until the evil animatronic mascot barged in and began attacking and killing the other contestants in cold blood while Y/n makes a break for it and now has to find a way out of this situation with a homicidal animatronic chasing after him. Luckily, the Real Frankie is watching over Y/n and gives him advice on how to get through the danger and stopping his monstrous counterpart from capturing him and even gets some help from Deputy Duck that helps him get through some parts of the Parkour Palace before he gets torn up by Henry Hotline (That is Y/n's least favorite character), but can still function nonetheless. Now all Y/n has to do is make it to the final round without getting killed by Monster Frankie and going through many dangerous obstacle courses to not only win the 5-million-dollar cash prize but also boost the ratings of the game show. Let's hope our lucky contestant makes it through the end of the game before he becomes the Monster's next victim.
