The Devon family sits on a mountain of debt and they are on the brink of bankruptcy. This is no fault of hers of course, but Courtney Devon has always been the one painted as the villain in her family. However, the family is in dire straits and they have to do something, anything, to raise some money and get out of this situation. But then one day, news arrives from the Imperial Palace that His Royal Highness the crown prince has decided to make Courtney the crown princess. Seemingly a typical prince on the outside, His Royal Highness is actually quite a troublemaker with a dark side. Will this arrangement end up solving Courtney Devon's problems or just complicating things further? Will a love against all odds bloom or will someone end up in the doghouse...?

A Lord and Lace (Regency au! Prince Arthur x oc) by kfacecookie
1 part Complete
A wayward regency au one shot I wrote for fun, and because the concept wouldn't stop haunting my mind. ~ Trying to get back up after his ex-fiancé left him, Lord Arthur Pendragon relents to his friends and families idea of hosting a party in his family's estate. Although holding up hope for a new love that evening, he could not predict falling head over heel for a woman with haunted eyes, who secretly hides a crooked and wicked grin and a spark of intrigue unlike any he's glimpses before. After catching the sight of that side of her, and the way her families mistreatment severely dampens it, he finds himself sure of one thing. He's going to get her out their grasp, but doing so might be more tricky then first expected. Miss Harriet Frodesdotter is stuck in a hell of constantly being forced into a uncomfortable, lace covered, dress, into unbearably loud ballrooms, and dealing with condescending suitors that her controlling sister manages to steer towards her. The sudden approach by a Lord Pendragon does make her pause however, his sweet and concerned eyes appearing to be almost horrifyingly sincere as he offers to help her with her family issues. She doesn't trust him, he's not the first to claim to be her savour for purely selfish reasons, but something tells her that there's something more to him, and not in a bad way. ~ Content warning for ableism, family issues (including abuse, I don't perceive it as especially graphic, but it's there) and depictions of meltdowns.
