betrothal betrothed conflict love married royal wedding

Empire Lacastor is Princess of Astoren and has known her fate and duty since she was four years old: to marry Prince Edward Royal, heir to Vardura. It never really felt real, however, until her mother tells her at age 18 that it's time for her to marry her betrothed. Once in Vardura, Empire is suffocated by the castle she's not allowed to leave, controlling nature of men, and the queen, who seems to be criticizing her every move. Not to mention the fact she despises her fiancé. 

Edward Royal is Prince and heir to Vardura, a country that is largely in debt and looking at a war with Ordos as their leader, the Blood Woman, expands her land closer and closer to his. His only hope at winning the war is to form an alliance with the Astoren people by marrying Empire, the Savage Princess who represents everything he despises. 

Charmion Royal is Princess of Vardura and brother to Prince Edward Royal. Desperate for alliances, her father, King Althalos, sends her to the feared savage Zekayag people. The Zekayags live in large villages filled with fierce warriors, horses, and nothing to sleep in but tents. Although terrified of her betrothed, Wolfe Halacre, and of the strange and barbaric ways of the Zekayag people, she feels a strange connection to the land... and the freedoms they allow women.

Aeliana Musard is nothing but a servant in Atreides, forced to take care of the spoiled Princess Saxa Mont-Canisi. For the first time in her life, however, things are looking up; as soon as Princess Saxa is married to Steinn Deschamps, Prince of Ordos, and sent off to live with him, she can take her savings and make a life for herself. That was the plan... until Princess Saxa is murdered the night before her fiancé is to arrive and take her back to Ordos, and the queen demands that Saxa take her place to keep their alliance secure.

Dragon Blood by mwendlandt

"Do you remember calling me 'mate?'" he asked softly, pushing her wild curls away from her face. She blushed deeply, but he wouldn't let her look away. "You heard that?" He nodded with a smile. "It was the first thought she ever shared with me." Skylar pursed her lips. "She likes you very much." "What about you?" he teased gently. "How do you feel about me?" She set her jaw and once again managed to look down her nose at him while staring up at him. "Well... well, I'm rather fond of you, Orion." He let out a relieved laugh and pulled her into his chest again. "What a relief. I was worried it was just me." He nuzzled her temple, inhaling deeply, his dragon fully at peace. The words "I love you" were right on the tip of his tongue, but he knew it was too soon for that. He would have to hold them in just a little while longer. "I'm fond of you, too," he whispered in her ear. <><><><><><><><> Skylar lived her life in fear. Fear of exposure, fear of herself, and fear of her future.

Reality Meets Fantasy by floatinginthesky8

I'm Alicia Godberson and I got kidnapped. But then I found out that I was a vampire heiress to the throne. That means I can rule the whole land full of vampires. Wait a minute... does that make me a dictator? Whoa, whoa, whoa. Ooh! A new candy shop's going to have a grand opening today! Mm... Candy. No wait... Stop. See, I get distracted a lot. When I mean a lot. I mean a LOT. My life is very complicated. Like come on, who wouldn't agree that it is, if they found out their dead parents were actually alive and WERE VAMPIRE ROYALTY. Plus, I so did not sign up for a betrothal to some arrogant vampire prince. Just my luck too; I get betrayed, possibly killed and probably a memory capacity overload from all my thinking. But you know what? Bring. It. On.

Maid For Marriage by Jaylin2505

Thandi always knew she wasn't destined for greatness. She'd never be anything but someone's wife. Nothing would come of her life, so she submitted. She submitted to her father's wrath. Her aunt, however, wanted more for her niece. She knew that if her niece ever wanted to escape her brother, the chief, they needed to play him at his own game. Thandi's aunt knew if she ever wanted her niece to be free from her brother, she needed to keep him away from her for as long as she could. She knew her niece didn't have much of a choice in her future. The only way for Thandi to get some kind of control over her own life is getting married to the man of her choice before her father married her off to the highest bidder. Thandi and her aunt escaped their village to live in the city. They did everything in their power to keep the chief calm and distracted. The only way to do so was for her aunt to promise to teach her how to be a good traditional wife and, most importantly, stay a virgin. That was his biggest rule. Stay a virgin. One drunken mistake causes Thandi to lose her virginity, and her aunt knows the race is on. Either Thandi finds a man that she loves and is willing to submit to, or she marries one of her father's perverted friends. Will Thandi find her knight in shining armor, and if she does, will he be worth it?

One Day More - a Sartorias-deles fanfic by micamoney

Iris Theren has grown up in a small town near the Niam River her entire life. Composed of under 200 people, you'd think residents would know who she was, but her parents have made that impossible, going so far as to not even report her birth when it occurred twenty-three years ago. Cetus and Cassiopeia Theren at one point imagined themselves to be esteemed members of the court, but they overheard whispered questions regarding their loyalties to the crown. Thus, they left Remalna-city years before Iris was born. Their resentment and dislike of the Renselaeus family traveled with them. In their minds, it was the Renselaeuses who caused their fall from "grace" and "good-standing." Only a minor detail that no one truly liked them in the first place. From the moment they left Remalna-city--from the moment Vidanric Renselaeus ascended to the throne with his wife, Meliara Astiar, at his side--they quietly plotted their revenge. Alaraec Renselaeus, firstborn of Mel and Danric and crown prince of Remalna, has now seen twenty-four name days. The exact year the prince is traditionally determined to be old enough to take up some of his royal duties...including finding a potential bride. And thus Cetus and Cassie perceive the moment to strike has finally arrived. NOTE: The setting, history, a couple of the characters, and some of the concepts in this particular story are inspired by Sherwood Smith's novels Crown Duel and Court Duel. One Day More (working title) occurs twenty-five years AFTER the conclusion of Court Duel, basically an alternate future outside of Smith's Remalna's Children novellas.
