So I had to write a historical fiction novella for my English class. It was possibly the worst project I have ever had to do. Here's the final product!

Clara, James, Rose, and their mother live in Bethnal Green, one of the worst slums of Victorian Era London. They live the common life of the poor, starving, and with little money. But that all gets turned upside down when the Old Nichol, the neighboring slum, gets cleared. What will they do when people try to forcefully take their apartment?

NOTE: Based off of the Old Nichol slum clearing, but all characters and events based on them are fictional.

Bride of Sultan ~  The Forgotten Rose by magicallovely
9 parts Ongoing
This was my first time. I patiently waited for the man Dua Begum told me would be my first to bed with. After starting to bleed two years ago, my stepmother left me at a pleasure house when my father abandoned us. Since then, I've accepted the pleasure house as my new home. He walked in a black Kurta with subtle green eyes and a deep voice. The moment he asked my name and age and then proposed to me for the wedding, I fell in love. There was no denying it. I was just fifteen, and he was nineteen. But, ever since the night of our wedding, he has not come back to take me with him to his home. He left me alone, stranded, burning for him. I did not know who he was. What did he do? All I knew was that he was the soul of my World. My Jaan-e-Jahan. Seven years later, he came back as a storm in my life. As Sultan Rehman Sulaiman. The son of the man who took everything from my family, even before my birth. The reason I ended up in the Pleasure House in the first place. But my love for my husband, the Sultan, is bigger than the mountains, deeper than the oceans, and wider than the skies, even though he is himself a Mountain, impossible to move, an ocean, scaring people to stay away, and a wide sky, impossible to reach. Discipline is everything for him. He is full of love and respect for his family but equally heartless and dangerous toward those who cross him. And, in all of this, I entered his life as a burning flame, a tiny candle's flame, dancing for his attention, crying for his affection, and dying for his love. Until he killed my only loved one. My love died. And, his never bloomed. I was once a bud, unbloomed Rose, who opened my deep red petals for him, and he turned them black, leaving me forgotten inside the dying pages. Was I always forgotten for him? Did he never consider me anything more than a mere responsibility? Will I always be remembered as Bride of Sultan ~ The Forgotten Rose?

The Beloved Concubine of the Eastern Palace (book 1) by NoenSnow
200 parts Ongoing
Author: Huatang Xiuge Translator: Me (Xiaobai) 东宫掌娇 Upon entering the Eastern Palace, Fang Yun lived cautiously, burdened by the label of a substitute bride and daughter of a traitor. She knew well that, as a daughter of low birth, she had been cast aside as a pawn to appease the late Emperor's decree. Her family had sacrificed her so that her noble-born sister could become the consort of the First Prince, securing the family's allegiance to the new regime and gaining glory. Her father's gaze was icy. "It's your fortune to enter the Eastern Palace. The family raised you for years; you should be grateful and repay this kindness." Her sister mocked, "As an inferior daughter, you should feel lucky to take my place in the Eastern Palace." Fang Yun lowered her eyes to hide the cold glint beneath. "Father, rest assured. I'll repay this kindness a thousandfold." Did they really think they could use her as a stepping stone to wealth and status? Years later, Fang Yun reclined lazily in the arms of the newly crowned Crown Prince, watching those once arrogant figures grovel at her feet like dogs, begging for mercy. "To spare or not-my beloved, the choice is yours," said the man in the dragon robe, his gaze warm and gentle. With a slight raise of her eyes, Fang Yun waved a delicate hand. "Kill them. They're too noisy." They had tried to cast her into the fire, but she had risen from the flames, determined to make these despicable, ruthless wolves regret ever crossing her path, tasting the bitter fruit of their actions to the fullest.
