abuse death drink emerald escape gypsy hatred inn innkeeper king life love mystery novel poem prison queen romance thehighwayman tragic

The wind was a torrent of darkness along the gusty trees. The moon was a ghostly galleon tossed upon the cloudy sees, the road was a ribbon of moonlight over the purple moor, and the highwayman came riding up to the old inn door...

Emerald, the daughter of a poor innkeeper, spends her days hidden away, either serving the vile men that gamble and drink in her father's inn, or caring for her violent and abusive father. 

Never having met another soul, beside the men at the Inn, Emerald was lonely. That is, until one night when a strange man appeared at her window, and her whole life changed forever. 

I do not own the plot of this story. I simply got the idea from my favorite poem "The Highwayman " by Alfred Noyes. However, everything else, including names, are mine. 

I added some details to the poem that were never mentioned in it, deal with it!Alle Rechte vorbehalten

Dare to Play von AliceFurrawe

A girl with emerald green eyes sat reading by the moonlight peacefully. That had been her routine every night before the librarian wound up his battered old library. Until one day, out of nowhere, all her hope of peace was lost forever. Odd encounters. Unexpected threats. Immediate mortal perils. Ancient creatures. Danger looms at every corner, as her past resurfaces. Azalea is forced to face her long-forgotten fears - but will she brave it all alone? * "What happened?" he asked in a hurry. He knelt down beside her, and cautiously put a hand on her shoulder. She didn't look up; her sleeve was damp with tears. And... blood? "Hey, don't cry!" He winced almost instantly. "Jeez, that sounds like something my mum would say to me as a kid, when I used to fall off my bike and scrape my knee." She huffed a short laugh, but returned to gloom at once. "Why did you scream? Your dad was worried." He left out the part where he'd almost died of a heart attack at the sound. She didn't reply for a while. "It's - a long story," she whispered finally. "I can't tell you right now. It's got too many pieces of my past, and you wouldn't understand. But just tell him that... the Nahari have returned. For me." #strangerstolovers #friendstolovers #denial #past #revenge #war

Taken by the Heartless (HEARTLESS, Book 1) (NOW EDITING) von Goodluck_charm

WARNING: ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️ High and descriptive sexual content, strong language, and substance use. Recommended for 18+ readers. Read at your discretion. "I rather get dragged in the mud with chains by moving horses or be beaten with a club with nails on it than lose my virginity to you," she spat, looking at him with hate in her eyes, hoping her eyes conveyed the degree of contempt she felt when she spat out the words. Anger and disbelief flashed in his eyes. She would be the first woman ever to reject him and in such a preposterous manner. He stood and went over to her while she gummed her back to the wall, with no room to step back. He gripped her chin with his strong palm, forcing her to look at him; his wicked grey eyes bore into her hazel ones. "What if it's your only ticket to freedom?" "As I said, I rather die." He quickly shoved her onto the bed, and she scooted away as he moved toward her. "I am Eros Castillo, leader of the El Dragon gang. You dare not reject me; nobody rejects me," he said in a low husky voice, his eyes five shades darker, his countenance grim and dangerous. NOTE: This is my first time trying out dark romance and this kind of story. As much as criticism is appreciated, hateful words are not encouraged, please. English is not my first language, so pardon my grammatical errors, but I promise to keep them to a minimum. Thank you.

**WARNING: This book does have some dark themes to it that revolve around abuse, rape etc. So please do not read if these themes are triggers for you** Four...That was her name or rather number of servant she was. She arrived at the Valley pack as a child with no name and no voice just wrapped in cloth and a strange necklace around her neck. Raised by the abusive Alpha, Four did not see any future for herself. What she thought would be a death sentence from a heist gone wrong, leaving her in the Alpha King's dungeon awaiting death for treason turned out to uncover more truths and secrets than she ever expected. ********* 'I cowered in the corner of the dark and cold cell. There was nothing but utter silence around me. It was deafening. My ears perked as I heard hissing sounds come from the vent and it made me feel weak and the door to the dungeon open. I could smell something but couldn't tell what the vapors released from the vents were burning my nostrils. I could hear foot steps drawing to my cell. The lights flicked on and I squinted to see a tall and broad figuring standing at my cell door, unlocking it, and walking in. The aura this man was giving out was making it hard not to tremble. I quickly stood up and bowed. "What is your name" he bellowed kinda muffled. I panicked and quickly remembered that the guards had not checked me before putting me in here. I pulled out my speech device and began typing...I looked up for a split second just to see a fist plummeting towards me and everything became fuzzy. I could hear screams but could not make out what was being said. Everything grew darker and darker before eventually everything was all black and my world faded...' ~~~~~~~ None of the remarks made in this story are real. It is all Fiction. ©All Rights Reserved
