Finn has an honourable position; personal servant to the monarch of Cafi, a small country off the coast of France. He also has not-so-honourable a position; a man in love with another man, in the early 1800s. Oliver is being forced towards marriage, and Finn is being forced towards accepting his love is unrequited. As France begins to fall into another revolution, the world begins unravelling around them. Oliver has to fight to maintain the democracy he established, and Finn must cope with the reawakening of his less-than-ideal past as a con artist in the search for his long-lost brother. The two must learn who to trust and who not to trust as they begin to know each other more deeply than they every thought they could.

Content Warnings Applicable to This Story:
This book is set in the early 1800s, and I don't want to avoid talking about the horrendous things that happened to people of colour then. It will talk about slavery, but from a firm anti-slavery perspective, never glorifying or making excuses for it. Cafi itself is a fictional country and while I absolutely believe they would have had slave trade too (because most places did and I don't want to pretend they didn't), I want the book to include Oliver's fight to abolish slavery in his country.

Otherwise, there may be previous mentions of abuse, but it will be extremely mild, nothing graphic, and the chapter itself will pre-warn you. Oliver's relationship with his family can be problematic at times. Please take care of yourself during any chapters that may be triggering for you.

As a young princess in 1820 England, Cynthia Clark is ready to take the throne. She has done her duties, ignored her instincts, and thrown away all of the parts of her life that weren't royal; but on coronation day, she is hit with the reality that she cannot take the throne without a king. On a fated night where Cynthia is supposed to choose her betrothed, she meets Harry - a young servant who has served her family since he was fifteen - instead, and the story of forbidden love unfolds. As their bond grows, Harry shows her what it is like to be a normal girl in a broken world and teaches her how to fall in love with life itself. Cynthia, faced with the choice of true love or her duty to her country, battles herself day in and day out on how her future will come about. Will she choose to run away with her true love and live a life of free will? Or will she marry to keep the balance between her family and their country satisfied? Follow Cynthia and Harry through over a decade of Cynthia's royal life as she handles her new duties as a ruler, her new feelings as a lover, and her new challenges as the first person to rule her country with morals. *LAVENDER IS UPDATED WEEKLY ON SUNDAYS.* *LAVENDER IS A FANFICTION SET IN 1820'S ENGLAND.

When the captain of the army, Lucas, returns home victorious after the great war, all he wants is to be with his princess, Lorien. However, his joy withers when an unsuspecting visitor, Prince Samuel of a far country, comes to the kingdom, seeking Lorien's hand in marriage. For their forbidden love, both Lucas and Lorien are willing to fight and risk all for each other but when Lucas' dark secret is unveiled and a figure of his past reappears, his mistakes will be their downfall while Lorien must learn to hide her true self. When the soldier makes a wrongful sacrifice, it is now the princess who must pay for his wrong... What are they willing to give? How far are they willing to go? Who will pay the ultimate price and grant a soul for tomorrow? ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Hey all!! DISCLAIMER: This is a story I wrote in 2008 and it's the very first story that I wrote and finished when I started writing so I still have the whole story saved for the memories. But I recently discovered Wattpad thanks to a few lovelies (you all know who you are... *ahem* thanksgiving *ahem* ;) ) and I've decided to get back into writing. This story has a lot of meaning to me so I do intend to publish the whole story. I have published this story on the internet already on two different sites so if you do see it, just note that no, I didn't steal this story off someone else, I promise! :) If you are interested in seeing the unedited versions from 6 years ago, I'd be more than happy to send you the link via PM. In all honesty though, I have made a few embellishments. Nothing major, just the vocabulary really but the plot and characters are all completely the same. However, if you haven't read the unedited versions in the first place thenjust enjoy :P How often I update this story will be up to you guys and your feedback. If I get a positive response, then the next chapter will be up much sooner. All feedback is appreciate, even the baddies! :) Enjoy! Love you all E. Reignheart ~<3~

Content Warning: Abusive Homophobia, internal homophobia, homophobic society, outing, off-screen non-con (not between MCs), on/off screen self-harm, abusive parent, degradation, childhood trauma 'Hunters Don't Cry' Throughout my life, I've heard this hard-bitten expression. It was like a taunt, as if implying that hunters didn't have the heart to feel such extreme emotions or reasons sufficient enough to shed tears. But for me, this lingered like a heavy fog, suffocating me with despair... Outwardly, I maintained a façade of composure, but inwardly, the pain of suppressing my tears overwhelmed me. It was a constant reminder that my true feelings were deemed inconsequential, unworthy of others' acknowledgment... _____________ In the shadowed world of hunters, duties and responsibilities overshadow their personal freedom. One such shackle restrains their freedom to love. This supernatural race, which exists to protect humanity from abominations, forbids homosexuality and the pursuit of true desires. Despite being a hunter, Collen can't deny the depth of his feelings for his partner, Logan. However, as Logan's skills eclipse his own, Collen struggles with a constant sense of unworthiness. Unbeknownst to him, behind closed doors, his beloved grapples with demons of his own, in solitude. Is it possible for him to achieve the life he desires with Logan when the entire world seems against it? Or perhaps the only practical option is to give in and move on with someone who can reciprocate his feelings?
