I know. I should have used this perfect opportunity to write my All Maudra doing from Maudraing. I didn't. This is not set in any particular continuity. The challenge for July 8 was:
* Element 1: Write a story centered around royalty.
* Element 2: Roll a six-sided die. Can't roll a physical one due to your location and/or lack of immediate access to one? No need to worry; we have digital dice too. The number you roll determines your protagonist's station in the royal family as per the following list:
1-2: The ruling monarch (e.g. king or queen)
3-4: The heir to the throne (e.g. crown prince or crown princess)
5-6: The heir next in line for the throne after the above heir (e.g. the lastborn child of the ruling monarch)
* Optional element: Make a servant of the royal family a pivotal character in your story.

[A/N]: Hey guys! Before I post this story, I was going to give a little insight. A very good friend of mine and I decided to write this book, and what better way to recieve constructive critcism than to share with everyone here on wattpad? I'm proud to say that we're nearly finished with it, around three to five more chapters need to be written. However, I will gladly post two chapters a week. Depending on the length, I could possibly split each chapter in two. Enjoy! -Skye & Jasmine My attempts to sleep failed miserably as realization hit me. Tonight was my last night unattached to someone. I swung my legs to one side of the bed. My bare feet brushed the cold floor and sent shivers up my spine. Scotland is much warmer this time of year. I took a few steps toward the window, but before I got too far I heard chatter just outside my door. "She’ll never be happy with him." The first voice, a female, was barely audible. "She could be. She’s just upset about Benjamin." A second voice, a man, replied to the woman. "She’ll never love Derick." A hint of anger played beneath the surface of the woman’s voice. I lay back down after that, so much for Emma accepting our marriage. Unhappiness coursed through my body and I became furious. I’d never love Emma either; with that I went to sleep. I dreamt of my mother singing in the castle, her voice was loud and demanding. Her words flowed so freely from her mouth and danced playfully down the halls. She was in the throne room singing to my father just as she always did. Her song was about the way she learned to love my father. Most marriages in Scotland are arranged, and due to our beliefs they have to work out. My mother had always been so madly in love with my father, but he was hesitant because he had to leave the woman he loved so dearly. So he let her go…Complete
The Worth (Rebellious Heroes 4)
"All of a sudden, an idea popped in my head. Waiting it out won't help everybody. It's best if someone should make a move to bring him back. Then in a swift moment, I found myself pacing in the room, taking my backpack and placed some essentials and clothing. I then found myself going out and fixing Sergei's equipment. Afterwards, I went back in and wrote a letter, leaving it in the living room later at dawn. I decided to be the person to bring Quentin back." The fourth part of Rebellious Heroes, with different characters and a different story. This is a fanfiction I made from The Selection Series. I will post a chapter or two every Sunday (or any day as long as it's still vacation)....Complete

The Queen (Rebellious Heroes 5)
"So I threw away the mission in my head, smiled and started waving at the people, approaching them and interacting with them. If I'm going to set my brother free, I'll do it the right way.

I decided to be their queen." The fifth and final part of Rebellious Heroes, with different characters and a different story. This is a fanfiction I made from The Selection Series.

ROUND 5 - MORE twists and turns in this unexpected but amazing challenge - mashing up fantasy and action - battles; legends exposed under-cover; flying with eagles; a rare mental condition called today "Boanthropy" - seemingly of fantasy but a historic king suffered 7 years from it!
