The House of Veronica is an ancient, enchanted orphanage that quietly shapes the future of the kingdom. Every girl brought there has the potential to hold immense power, but only one will eventually wear the crown. The House reads their souls and gives them rooms-reflections of their hidden selves-and guides them, often in subtle, mystical ways.
There's a prophecy passed down through generations, often feared, rarely understood:
"When the girl of moon-pale gaze kneels beneath the crownless sky,
Holding darkness in her hands, she shall rise or she shall ruin.
The orb shall dim, the House shall stir, and kingdoms fall or fly."
The crown may not just represent literal royalty-but also choice, control, and transformation of the kingdom. Harlem's room image-a girl holding black liquid, eyes like moons-matches the prophecy's description. She's feared not for evil, but for the power of possibility she holds.
This keeps her path ambiguous: is she a savior or a destroyer? Or both? The house brought her there not just to protect her-but to prepare her.

I have always been angry. My life, to say the least, has been interesting. I guess 'interesting' could be a synonym for bad luck. Luck that all started with the colour green. I have always despised the colour green. It was what got me into this mess, but somehow, it seemed, would also get me out. My luck started when I crossed paths with the green-eyed butterfly. Only eight years old, yet it taunted me in a way I couldn't deny. Introducing me to my first experience of fear, for I was no longer a normal child, it was time to say goodbye. Thus, the war began, and to even the score I was forced to bore the scars that had stolen my childhood. From that day forwards, my bad luck continued until I met another pair of green eyes. And for the second time in my life, I stared fear in the face. To the man I will meet, will you use your power to save the good and defeat the bad? Or will you hate what you've gained, only to love what you had? Torn between the love of family and the freedom I desire.... pushed to decide between the comfort of safety or the danger that arises... I will cooperate or suffer the consequences? Maybe love and magic is all that is needed to secure the Crown of Wolves.Complete![The Butterfly Bracelet [Yandere Prince x Female Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/230345104-256-k687619.jpg)

MAGIANIMA // Hermione Granger
Atlas Magianima Black. Daughter of a famous Auror and an acclaimed Serial Killer, gifted with abilities far beyond her years, but, like most good things, there came a catch, one Atlas had been paying for since the day she was born. The name Magianima and the curse that came with it being just one. Basically, a Harry Potter rewrite but from an OC's point of view. Obviously, I don't own Harry Potter, and of course, she-who-must-not-be-named is the rightful owner. I just like to sh1tpost.

Bloody Crown [COMPLETED]
She was born a wolf in a world that wanted her tamed. Seraphina Ravenshade never asked for silk gowns or gilded palaces, her place has always been the training yard, blade in hand, unflinching before men twice her size. But when the Crown summons her family to the capital, she finds herself forced into a deadly game of politics, power, and temptation. The Crown Prince, Kael, is as dangerous as he is mesmerizing, his golden eyes see too much, his touch burns too deep, and his intentions blur the line between protection and possession. But the shadows whisper another name. Silais, a man with silver hair, a past soaked in blood, and a vow that ties Seraphina to secrets the royal family would kill to bury. Between a prince who cages her with fire and a phantom who claims her in darkness, Seraphina must decide where her loyalty, and her heart truly lies. And in Aurelius, love is just another battlefield. --- 🩸A dark fantasy romance where love is dangerous, power is bloody, and every choice can destroy a kingdom. Read now. But beware, no one escapes unscathed. Hello there! This is my first attempt at writing something, so please bear with me-I'm a bit sloppy when it comes to endings. You might find this story familiar if you're a fan of manhwa. That's no coincidence! This story is inspired by a dream I had after reading a typical romance manhwa (though I can't quite remember which one). All the double gaps means some time delay or skip. I hope you enjoy this little slice of my imagination! 💭✨ This was a one shot in one of my old account (which is not working unfortunately)Complete
