A Royal Mismatch: The Trouble with Prince Charming
(*No Rape*) Bringing to you from the Series of The Queens' Trilogy; A Royal Mismatch. From Royal Reject to Accidental Crown Princess: A Marriage of Convenience Gone Wrong . Every girl dreams of being born a princess, right? Not Oriana. Sitting on a little stool, waited on by hand and foot? No thanks. Freedom, adventure anything but the stifling expectations of royalty is what she craves. In fact, she'd rather be scaling the castle walls tonight than attending a stuffy soiree. Luckily, she wasn't born to be the crown princess. In fact, she is the bane of etiquette tutors and the kingdom's resident "bad egg." But fate, it seems, has a wicked sense of humor. Duty throws Oriana into a political marriage with the infamous Crown Prince Adric of Avon. A notorious playboy known for his scandalous lifestyle and disregard for courtly decorum, Adric seems like the perfect escape hatch from her suffocating expectations. Adric, on the other hand, couldn't care less who he marries. His reputation precedes him; a notorious playboy who thrives on defying expectations. But when the fiery Oriana crashes into his world of calculated indifference, sparks fly. Will this forced union ignite a royal scandal of epic proportions or blossom into an unexpected love that challenges the very foundations of their kingdom? Other works of this author; 1.

RESCUE MISSION
Louis dragged his feet, trying to keep up his pace so he didn't get lashed as he had already reached his limit.
"Move, move," the guard in charge shouted, hitting a whip on the table, which startled the slaves. "You old man, we won't sleep here if you don't work, there won't be any food for you!" he pointed at Louis, who was slow compared to the rest.
Louis inhaled deeply, with the side of his eyes closing. He tried to keep his eyes open and hit the steel before it was placed in the furnace, but he ended up hitting his own hand and writhed in pain.
"What is wrong with you? Stand up from there now!" the guard commanded, going to whip the man.
Oriana entered the room with Adric. The moment she saw that Louis was about to get whipped, she ran to cover him with her body.
"Who are-" the guard who was ready to whip Oriana too paused when he saw the Crown Prince. "Your Highness," he bowed.
