It was no secret that you were hopelessly in love with him. You would do anything for him: climb the tallest mountain in the world, swim to the bottom of Lake Hylia, traverse the deadly sands of Gerudo Desert... You did it all for him, and you would gladly do it all over again if he asked. 
  
Yet you knew he'd never love you back because you weren't her.

Oh, and Link is in a Abusive relationship with a made up character.) 《p.s, this takes place after he saved Hyrule, cause yes :)》 《Also, I forgot to mention, the lore and what not, like character personalities, is my own combination of the game and books combined. Forgot to mention that sooner, and finally remembered to.》

A lot of work needs to be done to rebuild Hyrule, and to convince others to help will take a lot of work from Link and Zelda. Having all his memories back, Link is plagued with thoughts and memories of the Champions, wishing he could go back in time and save them. He can't focus on the past too much though, because an incredible threat has woken up, and will certainly destroy Hyrule if nothing is done soon. Hyrule needs a hero, and that hero happens to be Link. Takes place after Breath of the Wild. The cover photo isn't mine! All character rights go to Nintendo, but the plot is mineee!

The courage to find me - The fate of us: Part I by anaraquelwrites
26 parts Complete Mature
"'I... I need you. You make me feel... happy even in this whirlwind of emotions and doubts. You're the only person I've ever trusted with my thoughts. And I love your company... or do you think I always followed you just because I was your bodyguard? In theory, when you ordered me to stay away, I should have obeyed. Why do you think I always ignored those commands? But it wouldn't be fair... to you or to me... to ask for something beyond what we are. Not when I'm barely a complete person. Not when I don't even know who I am outside of this damned sword.' And I hate how much sense he makes. He looks away, and together we watch the sun set along with my dreams." Embark with Link and Zelda on this journey of self-discovery, where they will need to learn who they are besides the saviors of Hyrule. On this journey to find themselves and each other, they will learn about their true origins, the forces of fate, free will, and the works of the gods. The story takes place in the time gap between Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Zelink: Princess Bride by Sunshinehappygirl81

When Link left Hyrule after the Twilight Invasion, he left Princess Zelda with a broken heart. He promised her that he would come back to Hyrule; back to her. But what happens when death attempts to interfere with a promise made long ago? (Post Twilight Princess) I love the movie for Princess Bride, and I thought it would be cool to make a LOZ version of it XD. It takes place after Twilight Princess :). I finished the book by William Goldman, it was really good, you guys should read it XD. (I do not own the cover picture(s), all credit to the artist!!) :D

Sometimes life feels like suffering without purpose. But life is like a mountain range. A lot of ups and downs. Drops that could kill you. Hills so high and steep that climbing them feels impossible. But somehow people still love it. Enjoy the views and journey they get from it. It's ugly and yet beautiful. Difficult, but a challenge you can concur. Just keep climbing and you can find something beautiful. Something worth all the pain. Twilight: Paul Lahote x male oc ((In 1st POV (multi POV)) The cover belongs to me. I started this years ago so the first few chapters are not good. I just can not bother to edit them anymore since I'm so close to finishing this fic. The chapters get better with time. (At least I hope they do)

✥ W h e n t h e r e i s l i f e , t h e r e i s d e a t h ✥ - UNDER EDITING - It was back then at the time of the Goddesses when she was born. Death, it's an inviting word that everyone tends to avoid. To accept it is nothing but a fleeting dream for you, no one dared to embrace it. Foolish, foolish Hylians. They think so badly of it. When underlying hatred filled a certain Hylian, Darkness was created. Whoever thought that the Darkness had a past? That someone was no one else but you. When you got bored, however. You decided to have a little fun. You are a manifestation of hatred, pain, and evil. You are an entity incapable of feeling sorrow, nor joy. And most of all, love. But when you struck a wrong move, a certain man got involved in your schemes. You didn't expect it to happen. Not at all. (Link x Reader)
