    Summary

    Following Princess Rhaenyra as one of her ladies-in-waiting, Arianne Swann was woefully unprepared upon arriving at the Red Keep.

    No scroll or tome could have captured the astounding amount of gossip that thrived within the Targaryen court. For a mere lady like her, it felt as though she had made a catastrophic blunder before even having the chance to place her pieces on the board.

    Yet, if she allowed her heart to guide her, especially toward the man it had chosen, Arianne believed she could endure anything and emerge triumphant. Prince Jacaerys Velaryon would one day be king, and though her father often said that hope was a fool’s errand, she dared to dream she might one day be his queen.

    If only his boor of an uncle would stop tormenting her.

    Summary

    The planets are gone. People remain selfish.

    The C.O.I. scrambles to make sure nobody takes more than they need, and anyone who does is sealed away behind an iron door. You're transferred to work under Ava as the warden of Cellblock eight, watching from a distance as humanity's survival slowly slips through her fingers.

    There's a man kept in the worst cell in the darkest corner of the prison.

    Something tells you there's more to him than meets the eye.

    Summary

    NOTE: HIATUS ALMOST DONE!!! SORRY LOL I'LL BE BACK THIS WEEK

    It is seven months before the events of Iron Lung.

    You are a C.O.I convict, serving two years' penance for a petty crime. After an outbreak in your already over-cramped prison, you are forced to relocate to a new holding cell on the ship. The only issue is that this cell is already inhabited.

    Your new cellmate is known only as the Convict. A Brother of Eden, and a butcher of men. He is everything you’ve been raised to hate, and you are everything he was raised to despise. However, in such close and heated proximity, you quickly realize that human nature has little concern for factions or sides.

    Through a series of events leading up to his final day, the man once known as Simon is forced to explore his traumatic past, his conflicted present, and the future he yearns to be worthy of, as you both navigate a difficult and untenable relationship.

    In a dying world, you must hold on to anything. Even if it hurts you.

    Summary

    "Then I am to be wed to..." Paul starts, but his sentence is interrupted by a choking of his own saliva - rage boils within.
    wed, to one of those monsters from Geidi Prime? Anger, hatred; It wars within him, turning up his stomach and burning the bile that rises.

    Yes, he's always expected to marry out of convenience, out of strategy. He learned from a young age that marriage is not about love - but to be wed to... to...

    "A Harkkonen?" He spits. Paul meets his father's eyes, and they warn him.

    Don't push it. What's done is done.

     

    or

    after the fall of the once-great House, the lone surviving daughter of Duke Bourbon is ordered to leave her betrothal to the na-Baron Harkonnen for the heir of House Atreides.

    slow-burn (kind-of-enemies/strangers to lovers).
