Hi! Thanks for taking the time to check this out! I honestly just wanted to see how far I could get entering WSA since I've never tried joining before ^-^ Writing Quality: I try to keep grammar mistakes at a minimum, but if you see something that doesn't really make sense, please point it out! Stability of Updates: I'm going to be completely honest, but my will to write is completely proportional to the support I get ;-; Your comment and votes could really really make my day! On the bright side, I do have a stockpile for this story, so look forward to double daily updates for the first week and then daily updates after that! Story Development: I tried to speed up the pacing for this story (so it will be faster than most of my other ones). However, I tend to pay more attention to detail than most, so just know that most words are intended to have a deeper meaning :D Character Design: The characters aren't perfect, and their choices are sometimes questionable. However, they're designed that way to be realistic. I want them to seem human, so they won't be the perfect FL/ML that you might find somewhere else. World Background: There are lots of hidden doors waiting to be opened :D

Hi Tangerqueen! Can I just say how much I hate your male lead 😂 I truly wish I transmigrated in your story just to punish him and take poor Daphne away. Okay, on serious note, the writing skill is amazing, I see no glaring flaws. Thre plots flow smoothly and the world description is just right. The poor MC is a princess who is left alone to defend her kingdom and is forced to marry a barbarian king that completely lives up to his title if not more. Unlike most forced marriage where the chemistry between the forced parties is apparent, in this story at least the female MC is clearly repulsed by the male lead. It will be interesting to know why the male lead is so weirdly wired. I suspect abuse and neglect. On the other side he tries so hard to conceal his liking for the MC, who is, let's be honest, an absolute dear! The road to happiness is long-winded, but I hope the male lead gets some logic smacked into his head, eventually. At this point he so doesn't deserve Daphne 😡😡😡 Very much recommended for kingdom stories fans who like to read about forced marriage, awesome female MC and insufferable ML who hopefully! One day! Becomes someone who deserves to kiss the MC's boots ❤❤❤

Author's Review 2.0 TLDR: Slowburn Strong and clever FL (from the start, Daphne's goal is clear... she wants to kill the Northern King --> seeing how hot and handsome he may be does not change that) Possessive ML with a dark past (he knows that her "love" is a trap, but he can't stop himself from jumping in) No glorification of r*pe or abuse --- I wanted to make clear that this will not be a novel where the FL immediately falls heads over heels for a ML who destroyed her kingdom and hurt her. If you are looking for a quick romance under the guise of princesses and demons, this story will not satisfy those expectations. Daphne will slowly understand the Northern King's dark past and discover what turned him into the demon he is today. But this pity does not necessarily directly translate into love. At the same time, just because the Northern King falls in love with Daphne does not justify the horrible actions he has already committed, and they are both aware of that. Possessiveness is not healthy for a relationship, and you are your own best savior. Love can complete and mend your life, but it cannot be your entire life. That is the purpose of this story, so if you are looking for a tale where romance is 100% of the chapters, please do not be disappointed when you find that it is not (a large part is exploring the danger of stereotypes and misunderstandings, tensions between kingdoms, and the sadness of court intrigues) Quoting Daphne: “Since you were truthful to me, I wanted to be honest with you as well. If you were hoping I would suddenly forgive you and love you after today, I don’t think I ever will be able to. No matter what you do, you will never be able to conquer me. You may break my physical body with force, but you will never ever own and possess my mind.” (Chapter 45) --- I just wanted to say thank you so much for anyone who has supported me so far. I've never finished a story here on Webnovel before, but I swear I will do everything to make this my first. A comment or vote really goes a long way, and they really do brighten up my day.

Wow! First of all, I've added this book to my library. What an amazing piece of work. This story began at the right moment, the top of my favorites (In media res). The Grammar and descriptions are also top-notch. Even the characters, I'm familiar with them already. Please keep updating, I can't wait for more chapters.

Okay hear me out, this story is really nice. I'm not sure if it was because I enjoy this genre or because of how the author introduces each character, but I was intrigued from the first chapter. I'm in love with Daphne! Also, the author's description of each scenario deserves special praise; it was so comprehensive that you could almost see what was unfolding. You really should keep writing!!! <333

While I haven't finished reading all the chapters yet, I believe this book deserves a review. Author writes in a very engaging way. The interactions between the Northern King and Eversun Princess are enthralling and intriguing. I'm really interested to find out what good secret is. I feel like there's something secret hidden behind that heartless chest👀 Not often I find a FL book that catches my attention with all the small, well done details and tiny actions that help develop the characters and make one not want to stop reading the book.

The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter

WARNING! -DARK ROMANCE- “Why do you have scars?” All of sudden, Iris changed the topic, as she looked at Cane in the eyes. She was still clutching to his sleeves. “Your father gave me,” Cane replied. He thought, Iris wouldn’t remember this conversation when she woke up. “That must be so painful.” “They are.” “Will the scars heal?” “I don’t think so.” The night indeed made you vulnerable and let you said something that you would never admit when it was bright. The obscurity softened your heart. “Too bad. You have a warm soul.” Iris frowned slightly. “I no longer have a soul.” He had sold his soul for the freedom of his people. There was nothing left of him right now. “Yes, you have, but you are in so much pain.” Iris blinked her eyes. “Your beast is in pain. You have so many scars.” “The only scars that I have is on my face.” Iris shook her head meekly. “I am not talking about your face. I am talking about your soul. Too bad, you are in so much pain… what my father and brother had done to you must be painful…” And after that, Iris closed her eyes and fell asleep. ====================== She is the daughter of an alpha who has killed his family, razed his pack and has also made his people slaves. Now, he has achieved revenge after ten years of being treated as a slave and was living a life that no one would ever imagine. Life akin to hell. And ten years later, Alpha Cane manages to take over and kill the alpha who has made the lives of his people worse than death. It was time for him to make the children of the alpha pay for what their father had done. Only… Iris was a runt and she was very different from her father.

The Alpha's Fated Outcast: Rise Of The Moonsinger.

“I will not be defined as a ‘wolfless deviant’ I will not be a pawn in the 'games Alphas play' And I refuse to be mated to the stranger who crashed into my life and turned everything upside down… Only that might be my biggest challenge yet.” Those were the words Lyla chanted to herself as she left the annual werewolf gala, drenched in her sweat and her pheromones. Only days ago, she was a happy teenager existing in the human world – trying to get through college and go far away, forget everything she’s been through and start life afresh but now, she’s in the middle of the gala, sprawled on the ground with her desires in everyone’s face and Alpha Ramsey Kincaid – the Lycan leader of the White Moon Throne extending his hands towards her. If she takes it, she would bring dishonour to her family because she is in no state to be mingling with anyone, talk more of the Lycan leader who was out of her league and if she refuses, she risks being sent to the pack prison for not taking better care of herself during her heat - Yes, it was a crime for her to be without a wolf. But when he touches her, something inside her stirs… Desires? Yes! Powers hidden by the moon goddess? Yes! And maybe just maybe, the stirrings of her missing wolf whose voice can calm feral wolves and heal … Can she learn to trust this man whose mouth says a different thing and his hands speak another language or would she become a pawn – a piece of chess in the games ‘Alphas play’? One thing’s for certain- Lyla Woodlands was done being the pack’s little, dirty ‘wolfless deviant’. It’s time this wolfless wonder showed them what she’s made of. #Slow burn #Wispy old prophecies # Love Triangle - ML and FL best friend #Villian in love with FL Join my discord group: https://discord.gg/t2w9NgC4

Reborn As Cursed Alpha's Mate

What happens when a goddess falls in love with a shifter? Asara; the goddess of love, was punished by her father, the god of thunder. Her crime being falling in love with a mortal shifter Alpha. To pay for her sins she was reborn as Cassandra LeBlanc; a mortal Princess in the magical Kingdom of Speldaria. Her family and kingdom, except her middle sister, shunned her for she was born without any magical abilities and she had no recollections of her true identity. Her betrothed, the powerful mage commander of the Speldaria, was unbothered by her. He wished for someone strong. Cassandra’s life was toppled when she was gifted a warrior slave by the mighty Alpha of Dusartine. She was asked to take part in the Yearly Arena Event by collaborating with the warrior. Cassandra who hated ‘The Arena’ with her very breath. A place where blood flowed like wine and life was cheaper than the very air they breathed didn't understand her purpose in it. On top of that, the mysterious warrior affected her in unimaginable ways. His hypnotic gaze unsettled her. His rare essence overwhelmed her. His muscular bronzed body consumed her with sinful thoughts. Even the dreams of her past life plagued her. When ‘The Arena' began the hidden agendas and underlying truths came to light and Cassandra was played a hand of fate. She was left with no choice but to give in and choose a path. The question would be. How will Cassandra grapple once she learns of the curse placed on her? Will she be able to obtain her magical abilities and stand up to her father? Who will help her along the journey? ~Excerpt~ Then she felt him, all of him. All his ruggedness. The strength of his arm. The softness of his lips. The grip of his hand. The warmth of his breath. Every muscle in her body went taut at the implications of sleeping in a man’s arms. She had never slept in a male’s embrace before. Her whole skin tingled like tiny sparks dancing on the very parts that connected with him. The crevices of her brain had these memories which weren't hers. This touch somehow didn't seem foreign to her. She felt safe in his soothing embrace and didn't wish to push him away and yet she knew this was far from appropriate. Cassandra tried to wriggle out of his hold, his arms seemed to be built from iron for they wouldn't budge. The light garment she had worn had lifted from her milky thigh baring it as his bronzed muscular one was draped on it. And now she could sense something poking her back. Her eyes suddenly expanded from the realisation and Cassandra fully panicked. “Let go!” She voiced out, heavily. Siroos slowly lifted his leg and slackened his hold on her waist so she could shuffle away. He had awakened when she had stiffened for the first time but wished to behold what she would try. With eyes blown wide she stole a glance towards the man who had her wrapped in his embrace like a precious treasure, his treasure. His molten gold eyes had flickered open and there was this softness and want with which he stared at her. Those soft brown curls cascaded over his eyes as he forgot to blink, watching the timeless beauty that she was. Her one-of-a-kind fragrance was a torture to his senses. How he wished to grab her dainty ankle, pull her from it and have her sprawled underneath him. To kiss the very skin that oozed such scent which was driving him insane. Instead, he bent his arm and placed it under his cheek using it like a pillow to watch her with desire-filled eyes. The awkward lull between them prolonged as Cassandra cleared her throat. “Did you have to climb on me to sleep?” “It wasn't intentional but was certainly enticing and definitely won't be the last time.” His deeply hypnotic voice was even more alluring this early in the morning as it resonated all around her. The book cover is mine.
