The Demon Prince's Forbidden Love

| Rosinante x Reader | Chapter 1 Excerpt |

| demon AU | fantasy | dark romance | slow burn | gothic atmosphere |

You watch as the circle and runes come alight with a deep cerulean glow as thick smoke fills the air. The crowd steps back and your father watches on. So far, all seems to be going according to plan.

That's when you hear a deep rumbling. The earth beneath you shakes and your heart races as a massive figure erupts, breaking the marble floor as it rises upward and into the center of the circle. Before your eyes, a demon appears. Towering above you, he must be at least eight feet tall, his broad shoulders and long arms stretching out above his head. The demon lets out a deep yawn, shuffling his gait before reaching into his black-feathered coat and lighting up a cigarette.

You peer up at him and study his features. His crimson eyes glint with a flicker of annoyance and his blonde shaggy hair falls past his ears. His black horns protrude out of his head and spike backwards. His charcoal, bat-like wings are on full display as he flaps them twice before tucking them in.

You glance down and finally notice the black heart-tipped tail that is dragging along the floor. You look up and as you watch him take a long drag of his cigarette; you catch sight of his sharp claws.

A fresh wave of fear rushes over you as you tremble in place. He is surely a demon worthy of his title. To your right, your father bows before him as he humbly lowers himself before the Demon King.

Without averting his gaze from the floor, your father speaks, his voice low and steady, "Oh, great Demon King, Lord of the Demon Realm, Donquixote Doflamingo. I humbly offer my daughter, a princess pure in heart and body, to you in exchange for the power that I seek."

For a long moment, the demon says nothing, narrowing his gaze and knitting his brow. Then, with a hint of frustration under his breath, he speaks, "I'm afraid that you have mistaken me for my brother, Doflamingo. I am not him, I am not the Demon King, nor shall I accept your offer or give you the power that you seek. Your offering of what I can only presume is a virgin princess insults me. I'm not interested in trading in the souls of humans." He spits out his words like venom and his lips curl into a deep frown. His eyes linger on your father's bowed form with a piercing gaze.

You glance over at your father, his eyes wide with fear and confusion as he shudders before the demon's massive frame. "My humblest apologies, Your Highness. I had not meant—" But he is cut off when the demon shifts his attention over to you, his tail sweeping the ground behind him.

You keep your eyes lowered to the floor. You can already tell by the way the demon spoke and his fierce gaze that he's angry; not wanting to tempt him into further fury, you keep yourself quiet and still. You swallow the lump forming in your throat as you feel the room slowly sinking away around you. This isn't how you expected things to go. You have been deemed unworthy of sacrifice. Your life isn't even enough of an offering for the Demon Prince, let alone his brother.

The demon crouches down before you and you almost flinch as his massive, clawed hand gently lifts your chin. "What's your name?" He asks and for the first time, you look up so that your eyes may finally meet.

For the Sun Chases the Moon

| LawLu | Chapter 1 Excerpt |

| modern AU | ballet & boxing | fluff & angst | romance |

The stage lights come on, drenching the space with a soft blue light. The sound of violins fill the air, the music setting a lighthearted tone. Tall twisting trees and black silhouetted shrubs stand towards the back of the stage.

A quartet of ballerinas flutter onto the stage in a flurry of lively movement. Dancing on pointe, their feet barely touching the ground as they glide past one another. Their powder-blue ensembles made of fine tulle bouncing with their movements. Their steps are graceful and light, each precise and poised.

Luffy's eyes follow the various dancers across the stage when suddenly the music shifts and the first key of a piano is played. Out of the shadows appears a tall, lean figure. The ballerinas continue to dance and pirouette around the stage almost as if they haven't noticed the presence of the man standing behind them.

Lingering in the back, atop the twisted tree roots, the man continues to watch the dancers. His golden eyes shift about with an intense commanding gaze. The same piano note is played, albeit only briefly and catches Luffy off guard. The sound is low and ominous, almost like a warning.

The man disappears from view and the ballerinas continue to expertly twirl and pirouette in time to the music. The mood is once again cheerful and joyous. But now, Luffy is wondering if the strange figure from before will return.

The ballerinas' performance carries on for another five or so minutes and Luffy shifts about in his seat. He can feel his eyes drooping. He lets out a low yawn. This is just as boring as he expected it to be. It hasn't been long since the show began but it already feels like an eternity. Why did Rayleigh even put him up to this?

In one swift movement, the man reappears at the front of the stage. He has a worried look in his eyes, his hand outstretched in front of him. This must be Oberon, King of the Faeries. Atop his head is a gilded crown of leaves. Vibrant green makeup is painted across the man's sharp features. His costume is made of various green fabrics that are both loosely draped and tightly wrapped around his masculine frame. His long legs are covered by a green leotard.

Luffy's heart clenches. He sits himself up and drinks in the man's mesmerising form, from his dark hair to his muscular limbs, his narrow waist and those amber eyes. Luffy doesn't think he's ever seen anyone more handsome. With just one appearance, Oberon has made himself known and Luffy can't tear his eyes away from the stage.
