The Swan and The Pirate
I'm sorry, I need this for my S.G.E desired reality- Basically this is a story with Hort x Female Ever. She's the daughter or Odette and Derek from the Swan Princess. She falls in love with Hort, very slay. If you like Hort, read it! I'm in the middle of reading the first book at the moment, so I might go back and edit this story as I read the book. I have seen the movie multiple times though, so there might be a little mix with information from the books and the movie. This si going to be very messy, but I'll try to structure it. Also, I removed Agatha and Sophie. I'm very sorry, I truly do love them, but I want to be the main charcater and Hort loves Sophie, so that wouldn't work. (I think I'm going to make another one with Hort x Female Never, because being a Never is insanely cooler than being an Ever, I'm sorry, but this comes from an Ever. It just looks much more fun.)Complete
