The Cursed Prince by 00reader6002

In a kingdom where curses are more than mere fairy tales, an ancient castle stands hidden behind walls of dark thorns, forgotten by all but the bravest and the most foolish. For within those shadowed halls slumbers a prince cursed by his own heart's betrayal. Once a ruler feared for his power and beauty, he now lies in a spellbound sleep, imprisoned by a vengeful sorceress who demanded a price for his cruelty: eternal rest, unless someone awakens him and binds their fate to his. Mira has never believed in fairy tales. Life in her village is one of harsh reality, where survival depends on wit and willpower. But when her family's future hangs in the balance, she's driven to the one place her people have always feared. Rumors of a sleeping prince and a curse that can be broken are all she has to go on, yet desperation leaves her no choice. But awakening the prince sets a far greater plan in motion, and the darkness she thought she'd face is only the beginning. Now, bound to a prince whose shadows dance with danger and desire, Mira must learn to navigate a world of magic, betrayal, and a fate that pulls them both toward something neither can escape. The only question is, who will break first-the girl with fire in her veins or the prince whose heart has long since turned to stone?

Flames of the Past #5: Lost Souls (Ninjago Fanfiction) by Cookieglitz

"Your power is too much. The same element that brings life, can bring death just as easily." With the Mage captured and Alec riding their back, the ninja leave for the town of Lost Rock, where they hope to find the Overlord's daughter---along with answers about Lloyd's Baddie marking. But the answers they find aren't the answers they'd expected, and they realize their mission is far from being over. Thrown back into the action, the team battles betrayal, separation, and thousands more secrets that only leave them searching for more. Yet as they pick up new friends, as well as new enemies, the pieces of the puzzle slowly start to come together, and the truth about the past may finally reveal itself. That is, if the ninja can make sense of it before it's too late. WARNING: This series contains dark themes and mature topics, such as mental health, abuse, death, and dark magic. Nothing should be much worse in terms of maturity than what was in Darkness from Within. -------- Cover by me. BOOK 5 OF 8
