Fairytales are real by terrysky13

What if I told you that every fairy tale you grew up with actually happened-but not the way Disney showed you? What if Cinderella didn't find her prince charming, but was selected by a dying king as a disposable bride for his murderous son? What if those glass slippers weren't a gift of magic, but instruments of control-beautiful prisons that bound her to a monster she was too terrified to defy? What if "happily ever after" was just a lie she told to survive, a performance she gave while bleeding inside those perfect glass shoes, married to a man she didn't love but was genuinely, desperately afraid of? Would you believe me? This collection tears away the sanitized veneer of classic fairy tales to reveal the brutal truths beneath. Here, Beauty doesn't tame the Beast-she learns what happens when you're trapped with a monster who owns you. Snow White discovers that sometimes the dwarfs aren't saviors, and true love's kiss solves nothing. These are the real fairy tales. The ones where young women don't escape their circumstances through magic, but are destroyed by systems of power too vast to fight. Where evil doesn't lose-it rewrites history and calls itself love. Where there are no fairy godmothers, no last-minute rescues, no happily ever afters. Just the horror of beautiful lies, and the women who died believing them. Seven tales. Seven tragedies. The truth behind the magic.

Court of Nightmares and Ruin by jspruill1130

Don't get frostbitten while reading this dark, gripping, passionate retelling of Snow White. Icelyn, the princess of the Winter Realm, is being used as a tether to unite the Winter and Summer Realms in an upcoming war. As a woman, she is seen as nothing more than chattel instead of the strong warrior she truly is. She longs to prove her worth to her father and people, but how do you accomplish that if never given a chance? When Icelyn's powers continue to strengthen, her evil stepmother decides that marrying her off may not be enough to rid the thorn in her side and takes a more drastic approach. For Icelyn, there is danger around every corner; even the mirrors have ears. To complicate matters, Icelyn learns that she is the fated mate of the King of the Night Realm, a wicked and unseelie fae that will do anything to claim what is rightfully his... When he comes to collect her, her entire world is turned upside down. Her fate was questionable in the Winter Realm, but how will she ever survive in a court of nightmares and ruin? *** She was mine, and it was about time they learned that. I have sat by idly for years, knowing she belonged to me, and yet, I did nothing about it. I did not want a mate, they were a weakness I could not afford, but now they were trying to join her with another, and there was no way I would allow that. "Ready or not, my little snowflake, here I come."

The Dragon's Heir [Beta][Complete] by SnowInParadise

COMPLETE #1 in Fantasy #1 in Adventure #1 in Historical Fiction ---------- Sometimes, believing helps us to see truth. Other times, we need a little evidence to believe. But there is truth behind everything; every false manoeuvre, ever little lie...a small piece of truth is hidden. Just like truth is wound into legends too. Growing up best friend to the future King, Arabelle never really thought her life could go wrong. Whenever she wanted something, or needed something, she would get it. Then she lost her father at a young age and Arabelle was forced into a world of dresses, balls, and lies. Being a tomboy, Arabelle would have rather been out on her horse doing archery practice with her brothers. When Arabelle gets curious and sneaks into a forbidden area of the castle, she discovers a deadly secret: her bloodline is sacred, dating back to a legend surrounded by the one thing she knows not to be true. Unsure what to do, she gets caught up in a series of events that lead to her being hidden and whisked away from the only familiar place she knew. After making some unlikely allies, Arabelle sets off on a journey to find the legend of the last dragon egg. Fate has something big in store for her; will she be able to withstand the pressure of it all?There is one thing Arabelle needs to learn to survive this new place... Some things are more than a legend. ---------- © Isabella Espe 2013 - 2019 This is a work of fiction.

Frosted Fate. (Dragon Series 2.) by selenophiletheaa

Freya who has no username woke up from the winter. 70% of her body is snow. She is also bloomed with powers colder than ice. She can make it winter if she wishes. She has a good power, but still unhappy. She thrives for love, for warmness, and friends, but she couldn't find anyone due to fear, because she looks different than any other. But what if she was given a chance to change her Frosty fate, for her fate to also have warmness? A frosty warm fate? That's ridiculous right? But opposite attracts doesn't it? Now I think you know what I meant. She comes to know about a dragon who has a very bad temper, but what was more shocking is that his fire can defeat her snow, because no fire from dragons can ever take down the snow she makes. What if that Dragon happens to call her mate? A word she doesn't even know about? What if love starts to bloom as days go by? Will Freya be able to tame the hotness of his fire whenever he looses control? And will Friollo also be able to stand the coldness of his mate's Frosty fate? Join their Journey with love, happiness, challenges, trials, fights, and sadness. Read how their love story may start and end, and as more mysteries unfold, be ready for such things being told. This is the story of Freya's Frosty Fate.

Fables Academy (TWAU) by Irocksocks22

Highest ranking at Number 1 in #Fables and in #Snigby! Thank you everyone :) - This book is unedited [updated description in 2021], under heavy embarrassment from the author, and is technically incomplete however I finally published an ending of sorts. I'll keep this book up for the nostalgia I guess, since it received so much support back in the day. Feel free to enjoy the ride again, or for the first time, nevertheless. Crazy princesses, annoying princes, cute boys, and troublesome teens. Pretty much all the Fables who make up the world of Fables Academy. ---------------------------------------------------------- Snow White is a cold person, who just wants an easy life. But being the future princess and fairest of them all isn't as easy as it seems, especially when she meets the love of her life who turns everything in her world upside down. Bigby Wolf is a handsome troublemaker and future Big Bad Wolf, who loves Snow more than anything. No one ever said that a relationship between a princess and a wolf would go smoothly though. Mary Queen, childhood friend of Bigby and arch enemy of Snow, is just a cold blooded killer who likes to fight all the time. Though sometimes, she isn't as evil as she appears to be. ---------------------------------------------------------- Despite all the drama, these three go through thick and thin together in order to finally graduate and move on to the stories that will make them become legends. This is a book that accounts all the crazy things that happen on their adventure through High School, where everything doesn't entirely make sense and nothing ever goes right. It's also my first book so I hope you like it! Contains swearing, violence, romance, bromance and probably satire.

Sinister Secrets Book. 3 by AshtonMarie

{Completed} Highest Ranking: #50 in Fantasy (05/19/17) Book. 3 I almost snorted. "You were scared of me?" I looked up at him, but he continued to watch Genius. "Foster, I was untrained and barely coming into my father's powers. I don't think I'll ever be a match for you." Physically. This time Foster looked down, truth shining in his eyes like sunlight reflecting off the polished surface of a lake. "I wasn't scared of your power, little pet." He said the nickname not out of anger or hate, but love and adoration. It was hard to imagine that at one point and time just hearing those words set my blood boiling... Now it was heated for another reason entirely. "I was scared that if I told you who you really were, you'd realize that I was no match for you." ------------ She is no queen. Things are not looking up for Eve Scotts. She's escaped Mab's desperate attempts to end her life yet again, but at a cost. Her soul is now tied to the wicked ice queen - her power and life essence is slowly being sucked from her body. And given the rate, she won't last long. Not only is she fighting for her own life, but for the lives of her subjects that still lay trapped under Mab's crushing and agonizng rule. And to make matters worse, her heart is is thrown in the middle. Foster Quinn is everything she could ask for - a warrior, a lover, and a friend. She's more than happy to have her love back in her arms safe, and away from Queen Mab. But can she turn her back on the dark and alluring Sebastian O'Neill who was the first to capture her interest so long ago? As the web of power and deception is woven tighter, Mab fights for power, Foster fights for freedom, Sebastian fights for revenge - and Neva starts to wonder if the world of blood and war she was born into will ever change.

Rotten Rapunzel (Dark Fairy Tale Queens - Book 3) by AnitaValle

And I have never seen people or had a friend. It's not fair. I'm a princess, the daughter of Cinderella. This kingdom belongs to ME. Not to the nasty new queen who's taken over. Snowy ruined my life, she doesn't care about me. She only keeps me because I cry magic tears. I have to escape. Have to take back the palace before my lost twin gets it. Have to punish Snowy for wrecking the kingdom. Have to make at least ONE stupid friend. And I really have to do something about my hair. NOTE: Rotten Rapunzel is unavailable on Wattpad at this time. It can be found on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other online bookstores.

In the Land of Fae ♔ (gxg) by complexcrimson

It had always been just Nyx and her mother. Growing up poor in a small cottage on the hillside meant there wasn't much to do for most of her life. Eighteen years of unchanging boredom evaporated before her eyes when Nyx is suddenly thrown into the world of Fae-creatures with the bodies of humans, the wings of eagles, and elemental powers like none known to humankind. When light is shed upon the truth about her absent father, and when Nyx realizes what danger the Fae people are in, she unites with them to overthrow the evil Ice Queen and end her reign of terror. Falling for their leader was the last thing she expected. [girlxgirl] [warning: depictions of action and violence]

Grimm (DISCONTINUED) by CharmingSucks

DISCONTINUED Basically just a fairytale retelling of Snow White, Rose Red, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and some other stories. I might mix in some folklore/mythology characters as well, but idk. Also there isn't much romance. And Prince Charming is the villain. I'm in the midst of writing new chapters, so the updates will be slow. Tw: forced marriage, abuse (spousal), rape, rebellion, death, homophobia, misogyny, and please tell me if missed anything. These are all kinda important to the plot so if you're sensitive to them just don't read it.

**A Snow White Dark Fairytale Retelling** - - - - - - - - - - - Marion Price wished something exciting would happen during the long, hot, sluggish summer vacation spent at her grandmother's house.

The wraiths who govern this realm hunt her for the warm soul harbored within her body. And the only way to stay alive is through the protection of Lady Ingrid.

It's only a matter of time before Lady Ingrid turns against Marion. And when Marion no longer has the Lady's favor to shield her, she faces a grim execution. Can she find her way back through the mirror to return home before it's too late? Or will she be stuck in The Hushing forever? *** 5.11.2022: #1 in Gothic Romance
