He had everything he could ever want; luxuries, fine meals, power, respect... He needed nothing more than himself in the realm to fill his empty heart.
Alexander, a prideful, arrogant, and powerful King is cursed to live in the hideous form of a monstrous beast after showing his heartless ways at a masquerade ball. Desperately, King Xander uses all of his own sources of magic to try and break the hell-bound curse, all while staying defiant in following the Enchantress' prophesy of love.
After years of living hidden in the castle walls, time and hope began running out for the King and all his servants, who were cursed alongside him. If the King never tried following the love prophecy, could it perhaps be his last chance at redemption?
𝐿𝑜𝓋𝑒... it was almost laughable. How could a heartless King ever love? And most importantly, how could someone ever love a beast?

NO MORE TEARS (MxB)
For as long as I could remember vampires ruled other humans. I found it that way and I believed that was an injustice. Not like I could do much about it. Once I turned of age, I would be sold as a blood slave, a pet and my life would possibly end. I never liked these creatures to begin with. Adding salt to injury I was bought by a royal vampire, the prince. I cursed the day I was born. Maybe not all vampires were the same, but for humans that was just wishful thinking.

Par quickly picked up everything that had fallen out of his bag before he threw it on his back saying "grab on," and extended his hand towards mine. I rolled my eyes at his dramatic speech and took his offered hand." *This wonderful cover was created by @holmesfapel - check out the stories there too!!!Complete
Cursed (mxm)
I was made to serve him. I was made to heed his every beck and call. I was dutiful, obedient, proud of my servitude regardless of what the others thought of me. He was powerful, and he made me powerful, too. It was honorable to be his right hand, to be able to execute his orders to perfection. I thought I had done well in this position. Had anyone asked I would have sworn I exceeded all expectations and fulfilled every request without hesitation or error. I had become an expert in anticipation, of knowing my Master better than I knew myself. So why did he give me away? How could he cast me aside so easily? Was I really so replaceable, so meaningless? He had made me for himself, hadn't he? What other purpose could I possibly have? How was I meant to serve him by serving someone else? -This story has mature themes and depictions of violence, depression, panic attacks, gore, etc. Please read at your own discretion- Highest rankings thanks to all of you wonderful readers! : #2 in "Servitude" #3 in "Servant" #22 in "ManxMan"
Affliction - Book One of the Alpha series - Man x Man
Nicolas Matesscu has always been the shadow of the Royal family-a son who seemed destined for nothing more than obscurity. As the youngest of the King's male children, he never quite belonged in a court built on raw power and expectation. With magic coursing through his family's bloodline, there was little room for the son who couldn't live up to their legacy, especially when it became apparent that he preferred men. But everything changes when he's chosen to wield the elements of water and weather, a birthright and a curse. In an attempt to carve out a place for him and meet his father's unyielding demands, Nicolas is sent to the notorious School of Solomonari, where only the strongest survive. Against all odds, he returns triumphant, a supposed master of his abilities-finally earning the affection and respect he's spent his life chasing. Just as his life begins to resemble something like happiness, fate deals a cruel blow. A savage lycan horde-composed of the very slaves his father created, led by the ruthless warlord Alpha-descends upon his family, leaving Nicolas as the lone survivor. Nicolas is taken prisoner by the man who tore his world apart and forced to become a servant himself. Now, his once-proud city teeters on the brink of ruin, and the forgotten Prince stands as the last hope for his people. But when the world turns its eyes on him, the truth threatens to destroy him: the dark secret that he cheated through school is on the verge of being exposed. Nicolas must tap into a power buried deep within himself to survive and preserve what little is left of his family's legacy.
