Renaissance Stories

Sometimes you just might have to die to live again. ***** When art historian Reine Baldwin meets Gabe Moran, a charming journalist, she has no idea their blossoming love will shatter her comfortable life. But a series of clues lead Reine to discover that she's not alone in knowing that she was born centuries ago and-worse yet-there are many things she apparently doesn't even remember. Reine has to face a forgotten past and a forgotten ex-husband (the handsome billionaire Max Baldovini), who-like her-is immortal and cannot truly die. Should she trade her ordinary life with Gabe for the love of Max, a man who's worshipped her for half a millennium? The choice should be easy, until Reine starts to remember things that Max is desperate to make her forget. [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]]

Lady Rowena is sent to marry Lord Aldric of Blackmare, a man who trains warhorses to bow and charge at command. Unease drives her to spy on him in the stables, fearing what sort of husband she has been given. Yet, what she sees is not cruelty, but a man who moves with quiet authority and a gentleness. After the vows, their marriage begins in unexpected warmth. Deep affection grows, but a moment of doubt fractures the trust he had built with such care and what follows is ruin. Rowena now wants to escape, but Aldric, consumed by guilt, desire and something far harder to name will not let her go. ~ She dared a glance toward the stairwell. Empty, but the sound was closer now, the faint scrape of leather against stone. "A poor choice of ground, little fox" Aldric's voice carried down the passage, low and unhurried. "There are few corners here I do not know." She pressed herself flatter against the wall, willing the shadows to keep her. From the angle of the arch she could see the faint spill of lamplight growing along the floor, the way it shivered with each step he took.

(note: Story cover has been updated May 2023 :) New chapter covers will be added slowly too) Catherine Wolfe didn't know why she was chosen, or if she was at all. She only knew she'd been pulled through time to help a family involved in a war she'd never thought to exist, and that it was her only way back home. What she didn't expect, though, was the young man with whom her fate became inexplicably entwined. Ezio/OC Slow burn -- #1 in assassin's creed, #6 Ezioauditore 12/15/2019!!! I've been a fan of Assassin's Creed for a long time (not quite as long as Transformers), and I've always loved Ezio's games. I actually had this idea for a long time, but my previous Transformers fanfic and school took up all my time. Thanks to a friend, though, I have my inspiration, and expect this story to go places. For those who've read my other story, you're going to recognize the OC, and you've found me out: she's my go-to gall. I love using her in my fandoms, so if you enjoyed watching her grow in her first fic, I guarantee you'll love watching her in this one, too.  This time around, though, she's facing something perhaps far more dangerous. Whether or not she makes it... well, only time will tell and you'll have to keep reading her newest adventure to find out! As usual, if you see any mistakes, please let me know! Editing is never 100% full proof, so I appreciate the help. And don't be afraid to comment or share your opinion! I love hearing from you all and will do my best to reply to all your comments. :) Updates will be whenever I finish a new chapter, so hopefully on a weekly bases! And with that all said, enjoy Assassin's Creed: Chronos!

Reborn into the body of Lady Ariadne Valerius-the kingdom's notorious villainess-Aria Hale vows to change a fate stained by cruelty she never committed.

As Ariadne defies expectations with compassion instead of schemes, court enemies circle, destiny tightens its noose, and the prince finds himself torn between suspicion and an unexpected pull toward the woman she is becoming. Her second chance may save her... or unravel them both.

Giovani was a Renaissance artist, he liked to watch his paintbrush dance on the canvas and please those who ordered the artwork. But a weak spot for him was sculpting. He derived satisfaction from feeling the sculpture forming and breaking from its marble cage. "Can I sculpt you, tesorino?" Theo hesitated for a bit, not knowing what the artist had meant by that. He searched in his eyes if there were any interior motives but he found none so he just nodded.

Regret - The word felt stronger when he actually experienced it. Seeing his love lifeless in a mortuary was not a nightmare meant to be escaped. It was a memory to be endured. Shivansh Randhawa, the unshakeable, unmoving and unrelenting business tycoon, was on his knees in the middle of the road, letting the merciless rain fall on him. His wife, Prarthana Randhawa, was no longer with him. His fingers tightened around her nuptial chain, which he had tied around her neck by deceit. "Please come back...please...I'm sorry, Prarthana," he begged. "She can't and she won't, because she's not alive," He heard the hoarse voice of a woman. It was Guru Ma. "-but you can"
