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.

The King and the Peasant - A Pico x Nene Medieval AU by Howleen__K1nnie

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. What was even more terrifying about him was that he had caused so much destruction at the ripe age of 20. His father taught him everything he knew. This story also involves a young peasant girl named Nene. She never had it easy, having to live in poverty her whole life, then the loss of her mother, not through death, but through abandonment, and betrayal. A middle class man named Jordan took her in and took care of her for a while, they got together, and he gave her herpes. When she argued with him about it, he kicked her out. During the harsh, cold winter is where Nene and Pico meet under unusual circumstances. 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...

When the Summoned Saintess turned out to be the Yakuza Head by SteviPaige

*** This work contains violence, sexuality, strong language, queer & straight relationships, trigger warnings etc. etc. you've been warned*** ~ This is my original work ~ {I do think it picks up and gets better after the first little while but that may just be me 😅} "Who the fuck do you think you are touching?!" A woman snarled her boot colliding with the strange man's chest as she pulled her master into her arms protectively. The woman's miss-matched green eyes were narrowed and she was shielding a beautiful teenage woman as delicate looking as a porcelain doll. *** The picture of the woman on the book cover credits go to original artists all I could find was it's an image on a greeting card***

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.

Artemis by KaylaWoods289

"Let them go, Dante." I whip my head to see a small boy standing the clearing with blonde hair and a green cloak hanging from shoulders. He isn't very tall however he holds his stance well. He doesn't seem to be more than Cassandra's age. Maybe 12 at most. I abruptly turn my head back hearing the man holding a sword to my throat chuckling with a sinister grin. "Oh, poor boy, what are you go to do about it?" The yellow teeth gleam as he begins stalking towards the boy who does not look the least bit fazed. I look around at the other men who are following the leader. I pull Cassandra tighter to my back as I take small steps back. I keep my eye trained on the men but also fear for the naive boy. "Do you really want to test me Dante?" He asks raising a single eyebrow. For a minute the men stop their movements. I see their hesitation for fear... Fear of what? I take the moment to stick Cassandra behind a nearby tree. She crouches down while I pull my sword out from its place. "How do you know my name?" The scoundrel raises his sword challenging towards the boy before taking a final step towards him. Then the unexpected happens. The young boy chuckles so darkly. It sounded almost... demonic. All the men instinctively raise their swords. "Oh Dante, I didn't know your name... but you know someone dear to me." "Spit it out boy!" The once grinning man is now looking around frantically. I continue my eyes scanning the small boy. He looks directly me and gives me a small nod before saying one word that caused all hell to breaks loose. "Artemis." Artemis is not an ordinary girl. She grew up in the wilderness after being shunned due to unique abilities and her different physical attributes. Blessed with an ability that scared others, she roams the wild with only her guarded one. That is until she stumbles into a situation that brings her in front of a prince.

The Prince's Assassin by Sian2468

The blade of my hidden knife stops just a few centimetres from the prince's warm skin of his neck. He lays there, eyes closed and rhythmic breathing. His defined jaw relaxed and his teeth barely showing behind his pink lips. I hear voices coming from the hallway. I glance up at the door then back to the sleeping Prince. The door handle rattles, the guards yell from behind the wall. I bite my lip, balancing the blade just on the skin of the prince's neck. The door bursts open just as I slip out of the bedroom window into the cool midnight, no evidence of my attempt to assassinate the prince. ~~~~~~~~~~ Trained Assassin, skilled in over 4 martial arts, specialised in weaponry and one on one combat... And I couldn't kill the prince. So my question is, what stopped me? ____________________________________ "My chest literally hurts.

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."

Hidden Beast by FairyTale-Butterfly

I grunted in pain at the impact with the floor, the weight of the deadly beast keeping me down. I knew this was it, the beast would end me.
