My feet dance along the cobble stone street, silent in their march. Reaching out my left arm, I swiftly pull the small coin pouch from the man's side. He doesn't notice. No one ever does, not until it's too late anyway. Continuing on with my swift and silent motions, I grab another coin pouch. The weight of the coins makes me smile, and the clink of them are music to my ears.

Reflection (Neverland Archives I) by Literacy101

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, You'll turn ruby as you fall... Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, No more fairest of them all... ~~~ Ebony lives in the Mirror Palace, where the Crystal Queen rules all she sees. At least, Ebony thinks she's alive. No one seems to be able to see her--not even Ebony herself, when she looks into a mirror. The only time anyone notices Ebony is during the day, when they walk past her in the gardens--or use her for various things, such as a coat rack or a convenient shadow-caster. During these moments, Ebony wants nothing more than to speak, to be heard--but Ebony can't speak, or move, or even breathe, because Ebony is little more than a statue, frozen in marble. She doesn't know why she comes alive after the sun sets, or why she can run all the way into the Faerie Forest and still find herself back in the gardens once the moon is gone. Ebony doesn't know much of anything at all, except that she loves Prince Castor, who spends every afternoon reading in the shade she casts, and that she fears the Crystal Queen. Ebony believes that she'll be trapped in marble forever, but with the arrival of Henric, a huntsman hired by the Crystal Queen to track a rare white hart, her fate begins to change...

Beauty to Ashes by HanaAoi123

It was a beautiful beginning. She was a precious princess who was treasured by her father. Her life should have been filled with beauty, without winter, only sunshine. She just had to meet him. As she was dozing off, wrapped in a bundle of blankets on her father's lap in court, He was kneeling below, with a pale complexion and picturesque eyes. A small red mark was imprinted between his brows, akin to a red-crowned crane - alluring and highly venomous. He was a prince from the enemy land being held hostage, possessing an uncertain future She was the princess, with royal blood running in her veins. Hence, she became a legend passed down in folksongs on the apricot path: To give her life to the one she loves. Even if there came a day of heartless abandonment, there would be no regrets. But, in this story, there was another person. At her lowest points, he said to her, I will take you away, to the ends of the earth, not leaving, not forsaking - But, unfortunately, he wasn't the same young man from the very start. Till the end, when everything that flourished receded, she realized. Alas, all her former hate and pain was nothing but a lie. Her lifetime was the most magnificent beauty. After which, simply reduced to ash.

Vaani:his forced bride {Edited Version} by hapwrites

𝐻𝐼𝑆 𝐹𝑂𝑅𝐶𝐸𝐷 𝐵𝑅𝐼𝐷𝐸 Bound by Fate. Trapped by Hate. Consumed by Obsession. She has been a prisoner her entire life-locked away, tortured, and left to drown in nightmares that never end. The world beyond her room is a mystery, and love? A fantasy she never dared to dream of. He is a prince and a ruthless CEO, a man who bows to no one. But even power couldn't save him from the trap set by her cruel uncle. Kidnapped and forced into an unwanted marriage, he sees his bride as nothing but a chain around his neck. A fragile, unwanted burden. But when he learns the truth-the horror she has endured-his hatred turns into something far more dangerous. Possession. Obsession. An undeniable craving to claim what was forced upon him. Yet, in the shadows lurks another-a woman driven to madness, in love with him to the point of destruction. She will kill, manipulate, and tear the world apart to have him, even if it means erasing the wife he never wanted. In a marriage forged by cruelty, love may not be the only thing that blooms... because sometimes, obsession is the deadliest poison of all.

"Are you sure you're one of the girls? You seem like a spy to me. Are you spy, Arabella?" My name rolled of his tongue perfectly and I stood completely still as he took another step closer to me. "You know, it's my job to eliminate spies." "Eliminate me huh? I'd like to see you try."

It had been 4 years since Prince Pico's father died and he had to take over as king. The apple didn't fall far from the tree when His Highness began to rule. Pico became a ruthless and cruel leader in under two years. As commendable as his leadership skills were, the power eventually got to his head. People all across the land feared him.

Pico finds something in Nene that he has never seen in any woman that was ordered to the castle to try out for the position of queen. That something in Nene may just be what revives Pico's humanity...

Kings and Queens by Friend_Collab

"Ever done it with a peasant?" He asked towering over me, his chest blocking my vision of the sun. "Ever done it with a prince?" I asked. "No, but we can change that." "Can we? My father would flip if he found out." "Screw that bastard, love is love and he can't change that." "But, what if he's right. What if I am just confused?" "OK, tell me Noah, does this turn you on?" He removed his clothes revealing his naked body. "Yes," I sighed, "why is this so hard." "It doesn't have to be." "How," I placed my head on my knees, "it's hopeless." "It's easy, I'll guide you through it, don't be scared, I'll always be here." Changing POV "You're cute for a peasant." I said to the worried girl. "O-Oh. Thank you, your highness!" She bowed as she said. "I always get what I want, and now, I want you." "P-Princess, I have to tailor the gowns for your upcoming wedding." "I already have someone handling that. I also have a clear schedule." I couldn't stop my hand from sliding down her scared, porcelain face to her waist, where it stayed. "Maybe you should help me fill my schedule. The princess hates being bored."
