"Whatever your plan is, we did what you asked. Now you have to keep your promise and find our father."
"Of course, to reunite your family so you can live happily ever after... You were left alone in the woods. You deserve better than a father who'd abandon you."
~~
"You and your brother have impressed me. You aren't the first boy or girl that I've sent into that sticky, sweet house... But you are the first to emerge. And as a reward, I've decided to invite the two of you to live with me, here."
"You mean, that we get to live in a castle?"
"Yes! You would have your own rooms of course, personal carriages, valets, too. All of your dreams could come true..."
"Yes!"
"No!"
~~
"Hansel please, listen to reason! She is called the Evil Queen for a reason!"
"She can't be so bad if she has offered us a home, Gretel."
"But she's the reason our father is gone!"
~~
"You're not my sister anymore... You betrayed me, and I'm royalty now. Get out of my sight!"
"It is you who has betrayed me Hansel... and I will never forgive you for this."
~~

In the throws of a brothers betrayal, magics price, and her sudden shift from beloved daughter to orphan, what is Gretel to do? Will she be able to handle it all and go through life alone? Read to find out.

Infatuated-Draco Malfoy x OC
Infatuation is never a good thing, especially for newly found deatheater, Draco Malfoy. Feelings of any sort, for any one, would only put his heart at risk of being broke. With the dark lord on the rise again, Draco cannot risk being infatuated with another but when Juliet Walter's catches his eye and pulls him in with her mysterious demeanour, he finds himself in the biggest predicament of his life...please his father and keep his family alive or put his life on the line to keep her safe? (18+ story- swearing, violence, mentions of suicide, alcohol use, sexual content) I do not own any characters except for my original character. The plot loosely follows that of the Harry Potter franchise but a lot is changed to accommodate my character.Complete
Heart and Home~ Edmund Pevensie
Fauns dancing around fires. Griffins soaring high. Unicorns galloping across wide fields and centaurs battling giants. These are things Amelia Cromwell sees every day. She doesn't know how they happen or why she sees them but every time she looks through a rain covered window or at a patterned wall, they're there. Does she feel crazy and odd about these sensational images? Absolutely. It feels like something is missing in her life, but what? Now that her father has gone off to war she has to stay at the beautifully empty mansion of Professor Kirke. When four siblings arrive at the mansion, Amelia's life is thrown upside down. With an irritable boy, an emotional little girl and two protective older siblings, life could not have suddenly become more complicated. Throw a mystical land and magical creatures into the mix, and the result is confusion, anger, hope and love. Edmund Pevensie seems ready to grind Amelia into a million pieces, but when she is his only comfort and last hope in a land where nothing is familiar, could love bloom in the depths of his shadowed heart? ****************** "Yes. I'm not ready to die yet. There's still so much I have to do..." "Like what?" He sighed, "I've always wanted to sign up for the army - to help us win the war so that other children don't have to be separated from their parents like we were. I need to see my dad again, make sure he's okay and not dead with a bullet in his chest. I have to... apologize to Peter for being a complete arsehole of a brother. I have to tell Susan that I'm really thankful for her making sure I'm okay, even when I was so rude to her. I have to tell Lucy that despite all the problems we had as brother and sister, I love her... I love all of them... more than they know..." Amelia heard a single sniffle as he tried to wipe away the tears at his eyes by rubbing his head against the fabric on his shoulder. "We'll get out of here, Ed, you'll be able to tell them all. I'll make sure of it."Complete
Home Sweet Home
Gretel never had much of an interest in magic, not really. The inn she runs just happens to be made out of candy. But that design choice was made by the home's previous occupant, the witch Agatha, who had tried to steal the youthful bodies of Gretel and her brother Hansel. The witch had misused her magic though, and as punishment the house took away her human form and trapped her inside of a gingerbread one. Gretel has big dreams though. She wants to expand their little cottage into the finest set of lodgings in all of Germany. Money is an issue. As are the tricks Agatha plays against on the customers, always trying to worm her way back into a human form. The money problem could be solved by a wealthy investor, such as her neighbor Thomas, but that man only has one thing on this mind. And then the war came. Across the border the French have overthrown their King and established something called a Republic. German troops march west to avenge the death of their Emperor's brother-in-law and Hansel has marched with them. What's more the magic in the house is fading. The witch Agatha says it needs a new Master to make new rules and new spells, or else it will melt away into nothing. But is Gretel up to the task?Complete
The Other Potter
Harry Potter had a sister. Her name was Claire. Everyone knows the story of the boy who lived. But Harry Potter was not the only child left behind that night in Godric's Hollow. Dragged into a hidden world of spells, secrets, and dangerous wonder, Claire's bond with Harry is tested as she quickly learns that being a witch means more than wands and broomsticks. Her destiny is tangled with her brother's in ways she doesn't yet understand. And while everyone expects Harry to be great, Claire begins to wonder if her path might be far darker. Magic has chosen her. But at what cost? Author note: This isn't officially an xreader story but it's as good as (I just hate writing 'y/n' lol sos). So everyone is more than welcome to imagine themselves as Claire! The love interest for this story is Draco but I want the story to be a lot more than just that. I want you to read and really experience the whole Harry Potter story from a new perspective (very shifting esc). I'm going from year 1 to the battle of Hogwarts so the romance is obviously going to be a slow burn ;) It's childhood enemies to lovers (or whatever I end it as👀). I have a lot of years to play with so their friendship/romance is going to go through a lot. ALSO REMEMBER THE CHARCTERS ARE JUST KIDS. Especially in the first few years. So let's not be weird. Obviously this all depends on your own age too. ANYWAYS I REALLY HOPE YOU ENJOY!!
Means To An End- OUAT DarlingPan story
COMPLETED ♡ Wendy is on the run from Pan. She had finally escaped Pan after many of being locked In the bamboo cage, but he will stop at nothing to bring her back. She lives through the decades and doesn't grow old. But the police want to arrest Pan for kidnapping and murder, so they arrest Wendy to get information. She is in one location too long, and she had been located by Lost boys. "I'm coming for you my Wendy-Bird" But as she is caught, she is defiant at first but he erased any memory of him murdering anybody, so she learns to forgive him. He's more compassionate then he was before she had escaped and she's sleep in his treehouse with him side by side. Surprised by his compassion (well more like his less harsh to her) She absorbs the moment, she's for once happy after a very long time. So she doesn't run, she doesn't fight back (unless it's playfully), she cooperates. They learn to lean on each other in a time of need. Wendy doesn't want to leave him, as he hid the only one who searched for her and cared enough to stay. But soon she realizes how easily a person can be replaced. That there are secret intentions behind every speech and remark. Is it true love? Even so, there's is a means to an end. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ It is mature due to a little violence. It gets better as the book progresses I don't own any OUAT characters. This story will be a romance/adventure fanfiction between Pan and Wendy but it will also involve Killian as Wendys somewhat adopted dad.

Innocence (OUAT/Peter Pan)
A girl doomed before her own birth to be violently wanted by every person in her entire world, and then imprisoned for her entire life starting at age 5, of course wants nothing more than to escape. His Shadow is called to her, and takes her to Neverland, where she gets her freedom. And when you give an evil boy an innocent girl, opposites attract. I love the TV series, but I think Peter Pan should get to love somebody, so here's who and here's how they fell in love, as I believe it should go. Sorry for the bad summary, I promise the story is better! *Rating cautious, may change for some chapters TBA **I do not own the Once Upon a Time TV series, nor do I own their characters. I do own this story, and my main female character. ***Copyright***Complete
