Grimm (DISCONTINUED)
DISCONTINUED Basically just a fairytale retelling of Snow White, Rose Red, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and some other stories. I might mix in some folklore/mythology characters as well, but idk. Also there isn't much romance. And Prince Charming is the villain. I'm in the midst of writing new chapters, so the updates will be slow. Tw: forced marriage, abuse (spousal), rape, rebellion, death, homophobia, misogyny, and please tell me if missed anything. These are all kinda important to the plot so if you're sensitive to them just don't read it.Complete
Red's Wolf
We all heard the story about Little Red Riding Hood and the big bad wolf. It's a fairytale our parents told us amongst other fairytales. What happened if the story wasn't like the one in the fairytales, but funnier? Liliana Red is the type of person to do her own thing. She's a single, independent woman who works for Dimitri Wolf as his secretary. Dimitri Wolf is the type of man who prefers work over fun. He doesn't have time for frivolous matters such as dating or love. Dimitri receives an invitation to his ex's wedding. Not wanting to return single, he enlists Liliana to help him. Dimitri leaves on one crucial detail out, and that's his family, who are a little crazy. While trying to survive his family and deal with his ex getting married, Dimitri will see Liliana in a different light. Will the big bad Wolf be able to resist Red, or will he find out love isn't a bad thing? Expect humor of epic proportions. This isn't your typical fairytale, and Grandma isn't baking cookies, or is she?Complete
