"Your heart," he said quietly, touching your chin gracefully, "Is a broken compass. It's supposed to point North, but it doesn't... It points to me."

❧

It was only meant to be training, and simply for your unpredictable magic at that. You his pupil, he your teacher. Once you were satisfied with the control you had over that magic - and yourself - you would part ways. Your deal with Rumplestiltskin would be complete. 

You never expected to fall in love with him.

The only one who truly loved her through everything was her younger brother, Baelfire. Though that changed when she was forced to go through a portal leading to an island of which she never aged on, but it was where her ability to love also grew. Time passed quickly for Jade the longer that she spent on the Island, that she almost forgot what it was like to live within the Enchanted Forest. However, as the fates would have it, her happiness was something that wouldn't last, no matter how much she tried. And for years after being ripped away, she tried to find ways back, through friendship, fear, and the one thing of which Jade regrets the most; betraying the people who saw her as a normal human being and not a monster. She ruined herself in name of trying to reach her lover once more. Jade Stiltskin, Camilla Hopper, Shadow, call her whatever you want, she's still the same person underneath - a lonely, mistreated, hurt, and abused child who only felt the love off of her brother while they grew up, who longed for her mother once more and a chance of freedom. If someone betrayed you, would you let them explain or would you jump to conclusions without hearing their side of the story? Let's be honest, Peter Pan will always be the one who Camilla will always trust - after all he's the one who showed her what love truly was. 22nd December 2017-1st April 2023 ▻Set during season 1 - 3 BOOK ONE OF THREE

[MATURE CONTENT] a rumpelstiltskin retelling #1 in the ODD FAIRYTALES series "Do you enjoy torturing me?" He asked on a groan as his hand travelled from my inner thigh to further upwards, finding me sans panties. "Only-" I breathed raggedly as he began tracing my slit with gentle strokes with not enough pressure to relieve me of the burn charging my core. "- when it suits." "Well," he said, finger dipping inside me, making me cling to his shoulders. "For your trouble, I'm about to fuck you so hard they'll write about us." "Like a fairytale?" I asked on a whisper, amusement dancing in my voice as I stared into his glowing golden eyes. "Be careful," he warned, ducking his head until I felt his hair brush my face. His lips were a millimetre from my ear, his breath making something thrum within me. "The ending will make you scream." I didn't doubt that.

COMPLETED Remember the tale of Rumplestiltskin? Yes, the tale where a child was promised to him in exchange for spinning straw into gold. The same tale where he was fooled and was forced away. Now he's back and he will claim what was promised to him. The child. A deal is a deal. Princess Erinne is entering adulthood. Being the granddaughter of nothing but a miller, her introduction to royalty and aristocracy is no trip in the park. As the day she turns eighteen comes around, an old acquaintance of her mother makes an appearance, claiming her as his. (This is not a OUAT fanfiction. It's a fairy tale retelling)

"Why won't you let me go? I am not yours to keep, and never will be." Those words coming from her pouty lips stung his chest, but it did not waver in his determination. He pulled her wrist, causing her to fall in his embrace and he whispered in her ear softly. "No matter what you are or who you are, I will not let you leave my sight, not even for one second! Your tricks might work with other people, but not me." The tension between them got ten times worse when he felt her shiver underneath his body. Spending most of his life as a woodcutter to make ends meet for his family, Christopher did not expect to be knocking down a faery house in his lifetime since they were supposed to be a myth. The faery isn't too happy about her house being gone, now that her house is in pieces, Christopher has to give her a home until he can find her a new one, where no one will cut it down like he did.

As we go through life, we meet people who deeply touch our hearts and change us in meaningful ways. They leave lasting marks on our souls, transforming who we are. The footprints they leave behind guide us towards growth, ensuring we can never retrace our steps to the person we once were. And then, there was him. We found each other at the precise moment when our souls were ready to collide. Love enveloped us, and in his arms, I discovered a deep sense of belonging. Everything felt right, as if the universe had conspired to bring us together. But life has a way of unraveling even the most beautiful stories. In a cruel twist of fate, the ground beneath us began to crumble. The very thing that had given us hope and joy now carried the weight of our lives, feelings, and emotions, threatening to snatch them all away. The perfect illusion shattered, leaving behind broken fragments of what once was. He is the one who taught me how to love. But as I stand here engulfed in his absence, I realize he forgot to teach me the most crucial lesson of all-how to let go. The pain of holding onto his memory is unbearable, yet I would endure it all, for it's a bittersweet reminder of the love we shared. I'd trade my everything for just one more moment with him, for even a fleeting moment holds more joy than a lifetime without knowing him. ❁❁❁ This is Book 3 of my Botanical Novel Series, but it can be enjoyed as a standalone book. I hope you enjoy the read, and if you can, please consider leaving a star and a comment. Thank you! ❁❁❁ 𝚃𝚑𝚒𝚜 𝚂𝚝𝚘𝚛𝚢 𝚒𝚜 𝚊 𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚔 𝚘𝚏 𝙵𝚒𝚌𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗. 𝙿𝚕𝚊𝚐𝚒𝚊𝚛𝚒𝚜𝚖 𝚒𝚜 𝚊 𝙲𝚁𝙸𝙼𝙴! 𝙰𝙻𝙻 𝚁𝙸𝙶𝙷𝚃𝚂 𝚁𝙴𝚂𝙴𝚁𝚅𝙴𝙳.
