Cursed Prince: the light in the shadows
The cursed Crown In a kingdom torn between eternal darkness and radiant light, King Corwin, once a noble ruler, is cursed to remain in shadow, a dark prince bound by a malevolent spell that saps him of warmth and hope. The curse can only be broken by a single heart, the one pure enough to banish the darkness and return him to the light. But this curse is a twisted game of fate, and Corwin's salvation rests on a competition of love, power, and destiny. Enter Lira, a spirited young woman from a forgotten village, whose light has been hidden for years under the shadows that plague her world. She is the chosen one, the only person whose heart can break the curse-and the only one who can see through the king's darkness. To do so, she must enter a dangerous, high-stakes contest, where suitors from across the land compete for the king's affection. Only the one who wins his heart will hold the power to lift the curse. But the path to Corwin's heart is fraught with challenges. Alongside other competitors-each with their own powers, motives, and secrets-Lira must prove her worth, navigating treacherous alliances, betrayals, and temptations. In a world where light and shadow are at war, and love can either heal or destroy, Lira must fight not only for Corwin's heart but also for her own survival. The stakes are higher than ever: If Lira fails to win the king's love, the darkness will consume them both, leaving the kingdom to wither in eternal night. As the competition grows fiercer and the lines between light and dark blur, Lira must face her deepest fears and discover the true nature of love, sacrifice, and the strength it takes to break a curse that has held the kingdom captive for generations. Will Lira's light be strong enough to pierce the darkness and heal the cursed king, or will the shadows claim them both? Only one thing is certain-there can be no light without darkness, and no redemption without love.Complete

I slowly turned to look at him the smell of blood was painted on him the tears rolled down my cheeks his thick thumb wiped them away my body was shaking I was terrified of this man when his skin made contact with mine my body tingled with a foreign emotion, I looked up at his eyes letting him touch me afraid he would kill me if I moved. "Goodnight my Queen" I shivered at the title he had given me, I was scared to the bone and I was not about to argue with him while he had a taste for blood the look in his eyes told me he still wanted more when he entered the car earlier on. He tenderly kissed my forehead lingering as my heart exploded I waited patiently and shut my eyes praying for him to remove his lips from my skin so I could go home. He finally did and when he unlocked the car doors I jumped out and hurried to my apartment not looking back at the devil in the car. I finally reached my apartment panting and shut the door sliding down my door crying hysterically, I could still feel his cold lips on me. What did I just witness tonight. What did I get myself into. I was scared of the future because I knew surely he would be back to check on his Queen.

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it a memory... You know you're in love when you can say anything to the person and you know they won't laugh at you. When you can see their face when you close your eyes. When you can still feel their arms around you holding you tight after they're gone. When you can still taste their kiss after you have said goodbye. You can tell you're in love when you miss them before they're gone. When their voice lingers in your ears. When their presence eases any pain. When their name sends chills down your spin. When they're the only thing you can think about. You know you're in love when you can see all their hopes and dreams and their soul when you look into their eyes. When they call you at four in the morning to say, "I Love You" and mean it. When your tears stain not only their shirt, but also their heart. When even a simple chore done with them can become a lasting memory. Ultimately, you know you're in love when you can't imagine living without them and can't figure how did you live before you knew them. When they fulfill every need and without them you're incomplete. The love of someone else completes the heart, and sound and mind all at once. 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎-𝐟𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟎, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏Complete

cover by @summerafterglow 𝐆𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐥 It's so much easier to spread lies about people than it is to spread the truth. That's what Gabriel knows to be true, at least.

He was never good at being alone, but it became something he was used to. After everything he'd gone through, he craved solitude. Until she showed up. She wiggled her way right into his heart and now all he craved was her. 𝐀𝐥𝐲𝐧𝐚 Moving to a small lakeside town in Washington was not where Alyna saw her life taking her. She also didn't expect that she'd fall so hard for the brooding mechanic who lived there. Everyone tells her that she should stay away from him. All of the rumors say that he's dangerous, but all she ever feels with him is safe. With obstacles at every turn, will their love be enough to endure even the worst challenge they'll face?

The Midnight and the Daylight
Two kingdoms. Two princesses. One dangerous love. Eclipse of the Midnight Kingdom is feared across the realm-sharp-tongued, ruthless, and impossible to tame. She never bows, never apologizes, and never softens... until she meets Princess Sun of the Daylight Kingdom. Sweet, shy, and radiant as her name, Sun is everything Eclipse is not-and everything she can't resist. But Sun's father has promised her to Rowan, the arrogant prince of the River Kingdom, whose obsession burns hotter than devotion. Caught between her father's will and her own desires, Sun resists Eclipse's relentless pursuit-even as sparks ignite between them with every stolen glance and cutting remark. When assassination attempts, betrayals, and forbidden kisses spiral into chaos, the two princesses are forced to choose between loyalty to their crowns and surrender to their hearts. Yet in a world where kingdoms burn for power, love is the most dangerous risk of all. Dark, seductive, and filled with chaos, The Midnight and the Daylight is a sapphic fantasy romance about enemies, fate, and the kind of love that could ruin empires.
My Fucked Up Fairytale
TEASER: "No fiancée of mine needs to learn how to fight." His breath flows upon the prickling skin of my neck. I close my eyes, involuntarily shuddering in response.

"Blood...and of course, other means."
