*** Based off of Kiera Cass' 'The Selection' ***    

"You know, I think she might be an assassin, planted to kill the prince..."

Helena is an Eight and she believed she was untouchable. Well, untouchable in the respect that polite society wouldn't want to touch her with a barge pole - she didn't care about this. What she does care about, however, is providing for her surrogate family in the shambolic slums where they saved her. So if that means she has to enter The Selection to pretend to pine after the acclaimed Prince Palamon, then so be it. Becoming swept up in the politics of romance, the prejudice of her peers, and a plot to destroy the monarchy, will Helena escape The Selection alive?

The Selection Fan Fiction "I, Clarissa Dossen, will never be free from the cage of other people's choices." Clarissa Dossen is a 17 year old girl sent to The Fraussen Prestige Institute, a boarding school for the rich and famous kids of Sarroine. Her mom has devoted herself to a lifestyle of the utmost leisure and fame; Clarissa's dad, however, is down to earth and kind. In her young country, Sarroine, everyone is labeled. The Prestige are rich and famous, with the Royalty slightly above. The Elite have the wealth of a prestige, but not the fame, and the Modest barely make ends meet. But greatly looked down upon are the Unlabeled. They are such a disgrace to the country that they are ignored. Clarissa believes that these boundaries shouldn't be in place, and when put in a powerful position, she struggles between loyalty to her family and loyalty to her beliefs. What happens when Clarissa realizes she has been selected for a competition she doesn't want to be in? Will she ever want to be a contender in The Selection? Will Prince Alexander win her heart? Labeled follows Clarissa through a tumultuous and romantic journey of self-discovery and development with all the beauty and pomp of the original Selection. Her world is called Sarrione, which is what King Maxon and Queen America re-named the country after dismantling the caste system which their son hastily put back into place through the Labels. They are the current Prince's grandparents. *the idea of the Selection, inspiration for the plot, and the characters of Queen America and King Maxon are not original, all credit goes to Kiera Cass. However, this particular story and any other characters not present in the Selection Series by Kiera Cass are of my own creation*

"Father? " she calls in a cranky tone "What is really the meaning of these documents? ". He scoffs and sips his coffee less concerned " What does it look like? " he snaps "It's an arranged marriage obviously". He continues reading his newspapers and a tear drops down her face. " Father why are you doing this to me? " she whimpers "Why do you badly want to punish me? ". She chokes back the tears that were threatening to pour out " Because you've refused to grow and change!" he rasps "You have just decided to kill me before my time. You have already done enough and i'm quite fed up". He closes his newspaper and leans closer to her. " You are going to show up on your wedding day and marry the man i have chosen for you. Don't make things harder than it already is". He sprang up and storms out, she fell to the floor sobbing in unbearable pain. *Helena, a perhaps spoilt, wealthy young woman with the face and body. Of course she's every mans' dream but she rather sees men as a toy to be used and tossed aside. Actually she prefers the opposite, she doesn't want to fall victim of a situation where a man will use her and dump her like they are termed to always do. "So, literally she has no care in the world. But now the table has rotated and she's in for a forever game. Apparently, the above argument shows that her father signed an arranged marriage with a man she has never met and un-fortunately, there's no turning back........... Read More.......

*Old Work* I wrote this when I was 13, bear in mind. Please go check out some of my newer stories on my page. Cypress Ramirez is a six. She works as a maid in a seamstress shop. She loves to sing, play music, dance, and draw. She doesn't want to enter the selection because she thinks the crown prince Adrian is a snob, stuck-up, and an obnoxious asshole. She doesn't believe in fate, or the one. Her family all work to keep themselves afloat, but just barely scrape by. Cypress is the second oldest, but became the oldest when her sister Katelyn married. She enters the selection to help her family after her younger brother Aaron gets sick and is diagnosed with leukemia. When she gets to the palace, she starts to fall deeper all the while surviving rebel attacks and rude bitches. Cypress starts as a six, but once she ends, she will never be the same. *Some of the characters and the plot I own, but some of the characters and plot go to Kiera Cass*
