In a kingdom where class divides everything, Lena, a spirited young baker, dreams of a life beyond the flour-dusted walls of her shop. Her world collides with Prince Alastair's when fate brings them together during a secretive midnight meeting. Alastair, burdened by his royal duties and the expectations of his birthright, is drawn to Lena's free-spirited nature, and a forbidden love begins to bloom. But in a kingdom where status is everything, their love is doomed before it even starts. As their secret grows harder to keep, they must navigate treacherous court politics, personal sacrifices, and their own fears of a world that may never accept them. Can love defy the boundaries of class, or will they be torn apart by the weight of their worlds? This is a story of defiance, passion, and a love that refuses to be denied.

Wings of a Dragonfly by Camlaaarr
29 parts Complete Mature
Finn has an honourable position; personal servant to the monarch of Cafi, a small country off the coast of France. He also has not-so-honourable a position; a man in love with another man, in the early 1800s. Oliver is being forced towards marriage, and Finn is being forced towards accepting his love is unrequited. As France begins to fall into another revolution, the world begins unravelling around them. Oliver has to fight to maintain the democracy he established, and Finn must cope with the reawakening of his less-than-ideal past as a con artist in the search for his long-lost brother. The two must learn who to trust and who not to trust as they begin to know each other more deeply than they every thought they could. Content Warnings Applicable to This Story: This book is set in the early 1800s, and I don't want to avoid talking about the horrendous things that happened to people of colour then. It will talk about slavery, but from a firm anti-slavery perspective, never glorifying or making excuses for it. Cafi itself is a fictional country and while I absolutely believe they would have had slave trade too (because most places did and I don't want to pretend they didn't), I want the book to include Oliver's fight to abolish slavery in his country. Otherwise, there may be previous mentions of abuse, but it will be extremely mild, nothing graphic, and the chapter itself will pre-warn you. Oliver's relationship with his family can be problematic at times. Please take care of yourself during any chapters that may be triggering for you.
