The Art of Defiance | ✔

Lady Eleanor Mary Cantwell, daughter of the Marquess of Salford, is a proper young lady. With her golden complexion, raven-black hair, and manners befitting a princess, Lady Eleanor has always been deemed a belle. There is just one problem.Lady Eleanor Cantwell is Indian.Having been adopted from India when Lady Salford found herself unable to bear a child, Lady Eleanor is shunned by society, including her mother, on account of her true heritage. The ladies turn their noses up at her and the gentlemen only wish for her virtue which she clings to dearly. They certainly have no wish to wed an Indian girl, no matter how pretty she is!Which is why the entire ton is incredulous when a young man - a duke, no less! - offers his hand in marriage to the young daughter of the Marquess of Salford. Lady Eleanor finds it quite hard to believe that any gentleman would wish to marry her and instead of feeling grateful, all she feels is remorse and anger. A husband would only bring with him a mountain of restrictions that were detrimental to her plans of travelling the world - the land of her ancestors, in particular. So, when her parents sell her off to the duke, she realises that she no longer cares for society, her beloved father, or her reputation. And when the duke makes her an enticing offer, she realises she would have to abandon all sense of propriety, manners, and rules to do what he asks of her.She would have to defy.©Richa Rachael Kurian, 2021.*1st Place Winner in GENERAL FICTION/HISTORICAL FICTION of the HIDDEN GEMS AWARDS* Featured in the WAR & MILITARY reading list by @HistoricalFiction* Featured in the HISTORICAL DIVERSELIT reading list by @HistoricalFiction* Featured in the MULTICULTURAL AROUND THE WORLD reading list by @Multicultural-Community* Featured in the DIVERSE CHICKLIT reading list by @WattpadChickLitIN*Featured in the HISTORICAL reading list by @adventure*Featured in the DIVERSELIT ADVENTURES reading list by @adventure

Luna

A bullied girl meets the popular new student.*****"Still saying that you're perfectly okay?" Max whispers.I'm surprised to hear that his voice is shaking."I'm going to find who did this to you."*****One time, I was the most popular girl in school. All the students in Royal Heights, the school of the richest, knew me as the pretty Luna Klein, daughter of a famous superstar and a well-known billionaire. But the next thing I know, I'm an outcast. Just because of a complicated thing called love, everything turns 180 degrees. Now, I'm the girl that everyone hates. I've lost all my friends. I've lost my best friend. And I've lost the guy that I adore. All I can do now is to ignore the bullies and to survive each day quietly, hoping that I don't attract too much attention like before. Everyone in my school starts to call me loony Luna. Or lunatic, their favorite nickname. Then he suddenly arrives. Max Cooper, the new student who just got here from Australia. Insanely good-looking and smart, topped with his impressive family background, Max easily becomes everybody's favorite, especially the girls'. Disastrously, of all the other things he can pick, Max sets his eyes on the most forbidden and despised thing in Royal Heights. Me. Even though the whole school hates that idea. But pushing Max away is like trying to tame a wild lion that has just been released from its cage. Max is unstoppable. My mother once said that if a guy is really into you, he will pursue you no matter what. I think I know now how it feels. I just don't know how to handle my heart. Because every time his piercing eyes land on me, I feel like my heart is going to burst out of my chest.© 2021 Anya Jayvyn. All Rights Reserved.

I Kneel to No One

I said..." the golden stranger spat, "KNEEEEL!" he roared, banging his stick on the ground and creating a huge blue flash. All around me, people froze in place, and started... kneeling? Even the ones that didn't speak English kneeled obediently. Why are you listening to this psycho? I looked around frantically, praying not to be the only one left standing. Because I refuse to kneel to some scary jerk with a big stick! No way!Oh crap, I was the only one left standing. I looked around nervously. What am I doing? I spotted Cath giving me a terrified look like, Get down here right now, you idiot! But I refused to back down.Okay, no other option. Time to be a stupid teen, I thought frantically. "No," I said quietly, my eyes wide and muscles tense. I tried to suppress my scared tone, but I had a feeling I didn't sound very brave. I'm so dead I'm so dead!The man's eyes speared into my gut. I couldn't stop myself from trembling, but I tried desperately not to make it too obvious. "What?" he hissed with enough venom in his tone to scare a rattlesnake. Tears collected in the corner of my eyes, and a cold feeling started to make its way through my stomach and hands. "I. Said. No," I managed to get out. His eyes narrowed. A jolt of terror ran through me. What's he going to do? Slowly, like a lion that cornered its prey, he stepped towards me. The voices in my head rose to a crescendo, warring in my brain as he reached a pale, long-fingered hand for my head. I tried to run, to scream, to hit him, to do anything to stop him from doing whatever he was about to do, but my body was petrified by the tendrils of terror running through it. He smirked, causing a sickening burst of fear to rush to my head. What is he doing WHAT IS HE DOING-?Then he pressed his hand to my forehead and a green light flared where his skin met mine. I had just enough time to look at him like Are you crazy? before the world went black.

The Other-worldly Protector

Previously titled "Take Flight on a Dragon"_________The dragon growled, revealing a set of gleaming teeth. The leaking gash on her wing was forgotten as she fixed her eyes on the girl before her, warning her to not take a second step. Kiara raised her hand to calm the purple dragon, her heart pounding in her chest. Every impulse screamed at her to back away but she stood firm, determined to help the dragon who had helped her. The beast's big blue eyes briefly flickered from the girl to her extended palm. Her muscles tensed. Her growl intensified. Yet Kiara refused to leave._________Long before she had been sucked into a world of dragons, Kiara was home to a spirit of adventure and curiosity. Bending the rules was second nature to her, questioning them was first. Despite this, she had somehow lived a quiet life in her sixteen years of existence. Her rebellious side was a hidden quality that surfaced now and then but never really made a dent. That was until the one school camping trip that changed her life forever._________Hello everyone! This is a fanfic that I'm writing out of my love for How To Train Your Dragon. My story occurs loosely around the Netflix series (Dragons: Race to the Edge) so any characters from that series do not belong to me. Don't worry if you haven't seen it - you won't need to have watched it to understand the plot.Anyway, see ya in there! ;D-TanP.S. I'll update whenever I can :)
