Romans & histoires Sweet 15 Crown

"Daddy, isn't my dress pretty? Grandma gave this to me for my birthday this year!" Rowan adored Wanda. He leaned down and scooped up the little princess. "Grandma has great taste. Our Wanda is just like a princess." Wanda smiled, her eyes crinkling with delight. She pointed to the crystal crown. "Daddy, this crown is a gift from Mommy. Isn't it really pretty, too?" The crown, studded with crystals, sparkled brilliantly. The central diamond, the largest one, was about the size of a fingernail, and it was clearly worth a fortune.

The woman smugly smirked and gestured for the group to follow her, leading them towards a glass display case. Inside, Maria saw a sparkling green and pastel pink round crown embedded with colorful gems; the gold sun-shaped base in the middle had a large pink star-shaped crystal in the center. The shards' edges that jutted out at the top were each tipped with a white pearl. The star in the center twinkled, emitting a bright glow. "The Fairy Queen's Crown. It grants the user potent healing powers. There are very few that exist, and only a limited number of people can afford such a rare beauty," boasted Layla, pointing to the price tag that was displayed underneath.

The silver key buried beneath Cael's chest wall began to push outward, the skin stretching taut and white over the sharp metal edges. ​Deep inside Lyra's head, the Hollow Queen shrieked a frantic warning: Break the key! ​Lyra stared at Cael, her heart hammering as pain flared up her forearm. How? ​With the Crown. ​We don't have a Crown! ​The Queen's voice dropped to a desperate hiss: You do. ​Lyra looked down at her left palm. The faint, broken-crown mark burned against her skin, glowing with fierce intensity. Five silver lines were rapidly spreading outward from the center, racing across her wrist, climbing her forearm toward her shoulder like veins of liquid fire.

Sanctioned means no one touches you—unless someone higher says they can. Caelric steps closer. “Where is the token.” The attacker’s eyes flick down, terrified. Soryn’s grip tightens, and the man whimpers. “Pocket—inside—” Caelric reaches in and pulls out something small. Metal. A coin-sized medallion. Even from across the room I can see the etching—too clean, too official. A crown shape. A vertical line through it like a blade. My blood turns cold. Caelric’s face doesn’t change, but his eyes harden into something I’ve only seen right before people disappear.

Aameris spoke almost in a whisper, but everyone in the room heard him. The three couples kissed, then turned to look at the crowd. Lindaat started to glow, and a crown appeared on her head. Twisted silver and bronze metals looking like a tree being held by silver roots. Around the crown, small diamonds rose, looking almost like trees. When she turned to look at Teleraamon, he had a circlet of the same silver and bronze on his head. Ailive gasped when a crown appeared on her head, with a solid silver band with sapphires around the edges that looked almost like tears. Dakkaath had a circlet of silver with a hint of bronze in it. Xylia smiled brightly at the two, then felt something on her head

The black velvet inside framed something bright pink. A plastic crown. Gabby’s pink glitter crown. For a moment, no one spoke. “MY CROWN!” Gabby screamed so loudly the tiny hammer in my head went back to working overtime. She reached for it with both hands. “Easy,” I said. Kendra picked up the crown first and inspected it. “Oh.” “What?” I asked. She turned it toward the light. The crown was clean. No chocolate smudges from Al’s hands. No dust from the grounds at Villa Miravento. The underside, which had been slightly sticky yesterday because Gabby once tried to repair it with lip gloss, wasn’t sticky anymore either.

"I want to be clear, so listen carefully, because I will say this once. I claimed you because the law recognizes what you are to me, and allowing my mate to be chained as a breeder would humiliate the crown before every pack in the kingdom. That is the only reason you are here." Sable stopped singing. I felt her go still inside me, and then I felt her start to shake, and I stood there in front of his desk with my hope draining out of me and hating myself for ever letting it in. Of course. Of course it was the crown, not me. It had never once in my life been me. Each sentence that followed went into me slow and deep, and I kept my eyes on the edge of his desk and my face empty, because I had

It seems like Ares and I was in a trance just staring at each other, his eyes piercing into my soul. " here's your foo- Oh I'm sorry" Celia says politely as she places the food infront of us on the table. Ares moves away from me and suddenly I miss the warmth he gave me. He gives Celia a dimple smile as he thank her for our food, she smiles at us as she walks away back to the kitchen. I look down at my plate that ares placed infront of me and my stomach growls as I take in the masterpiece on the plate, a huge waffle in the middle and it's surrounded by different chocolate syrup and there's whipped cream and strawberries. I lick my lips as I smile at the food infront if me.

"No, honestly I am looking forward to meeting you. You said if I keep choosing you I will know you more, that's why I choose you for this elimination." "Why would you want to know me?" "I find you an interesting person, and I want to be friends with you." "Just a friend?" She teases again. "Or maybe more." She laughs. "I'm just kidding, your highness, I am okay being friends with you for now. So if you want to talk to someone just call my name." She winks at him. "Are we really friends now? Can I really trust you?" She didn't expect that the crown prince would be like a cute puppy, his eyes sparkling.

Roxy said while getting up "I'm going to get me a water bottle you want one" "yes" I said while rubbing my forehead i usually don't eat a lot of sweets, because when I do I get mini headaches; like a sugar hangover. I looked on the bed for my phone to see it had fell, I reached down for it, but a hand grabbed it before I could "aaaaaahhhh" I screamed while standing up on the bed, Roxy came running in holding two water bottles "whats wrong" she said looking up at me I pointed under the bed "someone is under there"
