Under a Gilded Cage
Gilded: (Adj.) Covered thinly with gold. In the crumbling kingdom of Fraus, the death of the royal family has plunged the realm into chaos. The law targets the so-called Aberrants: young people marked with a mysterious "7" on their left wrist, destined with dangerous powers that the regime fears and seeks to eradicate. Ivelle Aarelaid, a resourceful young woman, is driven by a singular purpose: to protect her younger brother, Blaine. With his abilities making him an even more vulnerable target, Blaine's survival hinges on Ivelle's courage. In a world where fear is law and the extraordinary is condemned, Ivelle must decide how far she is willing to go to defy a system built on cruelty-and whether the bonds of blood and hope can spark a revolution that frees not just her brother, but all those marked by fate. _______ "What do you want?" Ivelle asked, her hands fidgeting more. "What I want," he leaned forward, a breath away from Ivelle's face. Ivelle tried her best to not make her eyes fall to his plump lips. He was alluring. His skin dazzling like a million stars that are trapped on the surface. "Would you give it to me if I asked?" He whispered out, his breath touching her lips. _______ Note: This is entirely my work. I plan to make it a trilogy later in the future. I hope you enjoy it as much as I loved writing it!

Rowans Choice
Completed ✨👸🏼 Born to the fairy elite, the royal line, next in line to take the crown, a queen to be announced on her next birthday, with her royal responsibilities and...one choice... only one... everything else has always been decided for her. "Who has Princess Rowan chosen to be her eternal mate?" A question, oh a question, It was already whittled down by the draw upon her birth, a family name picked at random, to keep this fairy line fair, hardly fair to the one picking, to do so from such a small pool of options. Luckily fairy families were large but as Rowan searched the faces in front of her, five brothers... all handsome, all rather eager to take the beautiful Princess's hand... it was the sister, stood to the left, observing, that caught Rowans eye and if she only got this one choice then it was clear. She had read the rules, many, many times, they clearly state to pick from the chosen families kin, sixteen years and over only, nothing on the gender, not that it had ever been done before but rules were rules and Rowan smirked as she let her choice roll over her tongue. She would choose the one thing her father would be most furious about but couldn't change, her choice, and no other fairy, king or not could change it. "Andromeda" she would announce, finger flexed toward her, and the entire kingdom would erupt in the great hall with shock, as Andromeda of the sky line, was pushed forward by her mother into the mix with her brothers. "Rowan" her father would curse "if you place that ring on her finger your line has ended... please rethink your choice" But Rowan didn't care... and Andy had called out to her long before now, the beautiful brunette with striking green eyes, a daring smile and a powerful magic that Rowan had long admired. And after all... it was Rowans choice... to hell with the rules. *I DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR THIS BOOK TO BE COPIED, OR ADAPTED ON THIS PLATFORM, OR ANY OTHER, BY ANYONE ELSE* *Completed February 2023*Complete![The Dragon Kings and the Prophecy [SAMPLE]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/336419566-256-k296799.jpg)

The is now a SAMPLE ONLY. The story will continue EXCLUSIVELY on AnyStories. "Hello little one" came a booming voice, deep and sultry that made my stomach flutter like wings of a butterfly. "My Lord" I replied, keeping my head down, a quick curtesy, and eyes glued to the floor as if the marble tile was the most interesting pattern in the room. The auras coming from the dragon king was so demanding I felt like I could pass out. "Look at me little one. We do not bite. Much." the voice commanded, although gently it held power. A few snickers softly resonated. I took a breath and gently rose my eyes to meet the most beautiful golden eyes. I was so entranced that I almost didn't hear the one word that was going to change my life forever. Little did I know just how much my life was about to change. "MATE." It took me a minute to register what just happened. Excuse me? Did i just hear the word mate? Oh shit. -------- Everly lives in a world where supernatural creatures live side by side humans.
