Leah Seyl, a member of a group of elite guards recruited to protect the King and Queen of Laverna, is feeling defeated. 

For three years she had protected her adopted family, relishing in the interest the King and Queen expressed in her. She had everything their son, William, lacked. Compassion, love, and mercy was long lost to him. But as one day she returned from a trip back from her estranged family, Leah watched as her true home burned to ashes. Now with the King and Queen murdered in the midst of an attack from the rogue Servants of the Legion, she is tasked to protect William, the heir to the throne, and a changed man.

In this re-telling of Snow White, can Leah really trust this new William and will the pleas from a demon prisoner reveal what actually happened to the seemingly re-incarnated Prince? And can the Legion really be trusted when their own children had turned on them?All Rights Reserved

Desires of the Obsessed by CuriousWyvern

Okay, so I'm really bad at descriptions so here's my attempt at a small summary: Basically the protagonist of this story is searching for her friends little sister who's gone missing. Her search brings her to an unsavoury location, and the awful weather isn't helping her out much either. As she journeys deeper she soon realises that her suspicions were correct - an old 'friend' has returned, and this time they don't plan on letting our protagonist get away... So how was that? Not a bad attempt in my opinion, although it could be better... Try it out! Hopefully you won't regret it, otherwise - take care!

That all changes when assassins dare to come after him and his children on the little prince's naming day. With a threat daring to be so brash to attack the King, he takes on a personal bodyguard. Picked seemingly at random from the City Watch, Reiss thought she was little more than an average elf trying to make it in thedas.

But when he does come to remember his life in Riverton...will it be correct? Or just another trick invented by the curse? In a world called Meadowpeak, the Dragon King is presumed dead, left this world behind years ago and abandoned his people to suffer under the hands of Snow White's ancestors.

As Levi journey's through Riverton to discover who he is, join his story in Meadowpeak as he trains with Rumplestiltskin to stop Snow White from casting her curse to keep the next Dragon King off her throne.
