The Tyrant's Obsession by SavSelene

In a brutal empire forged by blood and conquest, Emperor Roderic Valmont has crushed kingdoms without mercy-until he meets his match in silence. Princess Elara of Lysara, heir to a kingdom turned to ash, is taken captive after her homeland falls. Known for her beauty and quiet grace, she does not resist. She does not fight. And yet, her obedience unnerves him more than rebellion ever could. Roderic expected defiance. What he found was surrender-and it haunts him. As days blur within marble halls and velvet shadows, Elara's quiet submission becomes his obsession. But behind her soft eyes lie secrets, sorrow, and a will far deeper than he imagined. In a palace laced with desire, dominance, and dangerous games, who is truly the captive-and who holds the power? © 2025 Savannah Selene. All rights reserved. This is an original work.

But her reign is threatened by Sebastian Blackwell-golden boy heir of her family's greatest rival. Raised to outshine her, to dismantle her legacy piece by piece, Sebastian is the one person Sera cannot control... and the only one who dares to fight her at her own game. What begins as a battle of thrones becomes something neither can resist: a dangerous, consuming attraction that could unite their dynasties - or destroy them both. In a world built on lies and legacies, enemies make the most dangerous lovers. And Sera Valmont will do whatever it takes to keep her crown.

Follow them in this short story as emotions begin to shift while they try to save their kingdom. ***This is a short story that came to me after listening to music and having a dream, I wrote it in a way that if I wanted to write an actual book version of it, it would serve as a guideline in way, so if thinks feel rushed, that's why***

Child Of The Phoenix by femertens

As heir to the kingdom of Astral, Princess Alessia Astrael is no stranger to rules - she's lived her whole life behind them. Sharp-tongued, perfectly composed, and trained to navigate the polished cruelty of court life, she's mastered the art of restraint. But beneath the surface, cracks are forming. Christian Russel, a seasoned soldier with a quiet edge and a gaze that misses nothing, is assigned as her new personal guard. He's not charming. He's not soft. He's loyal, infuriatingly calm - and completely off-limits. Their connection shouldn't deepen. But it does. What starts as tension blooms into something forbidden. A slow-burn loyalty neither of them fully understands, forged in quiet hallways, glances that linger too long, and truths spoken when no one else is listening. Yet Astral's palace is a nest of old secrets, shifting alliances, and masked intentions. And while Alessia tries to keep her heart guarded, everything around her is starting to move - including pieces far beyond her control. In a kingdom that demands perfection, desire has consequences. And love might be the most dangerous rebellion of all.
