𝐑𝐎𝐘𝐀𝐋 𝐌𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒, 𝐅𝐀𝐕𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐑𝐎𝐘𝐀𝐋 𝐀𝐅𝐅𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐒 𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒 𝐐𝐔𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒.

All sentences have been taking from different media and literature, movies and more regarding the topic of mistresses and favorites, mostly in the setting of royal court but can also be adjusted to other time periods. Change names, pronouns, locations as you see fit. Some of these include foul language, so beware. Implications of cheating are also in these.

You are my king, Niko, and I need you.

Everything I say is obeyed; everything I want is given to me.

You are such hard work to seduce, Niko.

She wanted to sit ON him, not next to him.

Never underestimate the power of a woman's intuition.

Behind every great king, there is a great queen. And behind them, there is a mistress.

The King is allowed to have as many favorite as he pleases.

A queen is never without her secrets.

A woman's beauty is her greatest weapon, use it wisely.

Rules are meant to be broken, especially by queens.

Queens do not beg for love, they command it.

Have as many bedwarmers as you wish, but I am your wife and you will not humiliate me.

A queen's grace can disarm her enemies.

He will grow tire of you, as he does with the others.

Having an ugly mistress is therefore a fatal mistake.

When a man takes a mistress, he doesn't turn around and divorce his wife.

Finding out that you are not your lover’s only lover hurts.

But a mistress can do interesting thing with food. Shall I describe them?

You will come back to the castle with me.

I-I'm not your responsibility.

You are mine. They gave you to me, remember? And I want to keep you.

Your Grace---I am a virgin.

I realize that, and it pleases me. You do not doubt that I can be gentle with you?

They say you grow tire after the first night. No mistress last longer than a night with the king.

I know what you are trying to do, but do not think to take the King away from me. Let him play with you.

Done being sore yet, by chance?

From a mistresses’s perspective, taken men are low maintenance. All they want is sex, sex, sex.

Do not take it harshly. It’s only flesh. And a body wants what it wants.

Kings have mistresses, Queens have secrets and they die with them.

To be the mistress of a married man is to have the better role.

The role of a mistress if make a man’s mood change and send him happy to his wife.

Don't be mad at a hoe for doing what she does best, besides it's not her that owes you that loyalty.

It was not a request. I will take you to bed and make you mine.

My wife has no interest in my bed, butb I assure you, my bed has interest in you.

Wives are young men's mistresses, companions for middle age, and old men's nurses.

I don't want her to know the truth about us.

They know about us and they do not care. My wife does not mind to share.

As long as I do my duty, I am allowed to do who I please.

This absurd jealousy.

A mistress should be like a little oasis, refreshing and exciting, away from the mundane realities of life

The bedchamber is where political alliances are sealed, and where empires are born.

A king may rule a nation, but a woman's allure can conquer the king.

Behind every great king, there are the whispers of his mistresses.

The allure of a mistress lies not only in her beauty, but in her ability to manipulate.

A mistress must be both lover and confidante, juggling passion and secrecy.

In the court of kings, a mistress can become more powerful than a queen.

He is one of his favorites, and everyone knows it. You must become his favorite too.

In the arms of a mistress, a king can escape the weight of his crown.

I want more than this. You cannot offer me more than secret meetings and a warm bed. People whisper.

You can be my wife here.

If I desire to marry someone else, would I be allowed or you would not let me?

I'll take you as my only mistress. I won't have a thought or an affection for anyone else.

I call Mary my English mare, because I ride her so often.

He cannot give you his true heart... for *I* have that in my keeping.

You can't have 3 people in a marriage!

Seduce me. Write letters to me. And poems, I love poems. Ravish me with your words. Seduce me.

You've taken her honor!

I swear to your grace, someone else was there before me.

They say all his liaisons are soon over. He blows hot, he blows cold.

Sometimes I believe you will grow tire of me. But then I find you here in my bed.

If I cannot please the King, will he kill me?

You must not touch me, for Caesar’s I am.

Everyone knew she was his queen and wife in anything but name.

You will have this orgasm if it’s the last thing I do.

What happened to the art of seduction? A woman enjoys being seduced.

I will not be the laughing stock of the realm. A woman who can only be a lover, never a wife.

I found her a very beautiful young woman with a very sweet and yielding disposition, She confessed to great admiration for Your Majesty. Should I, arrange ...?

If you put the Queen aside for this affair, the kingdom will fall apart.

If you seek Your Grace, you know where to find him.

I trust his mistress more than I trust any man on this table.

My husband is extremely jealous. Wants me sent to a nunnery.

I am with child. It is His Majesty's child.

Slow down so I can see how you do it.

Think of this as training. For your future husband’s pleasure. And mine.

should like to be your wife in every way.

I was wondering if you'd like to become my mistress.

You like to board other men's boats.

You know perfectly well what the King desires and what he shall have.

I saw with my own eyes how attentive he is to you.

My only satisfaction is that in frustrating you, I hasten your fall from the King's good graces.

Any man is weak against a maiden’s magic. Alluring and sweet. Like spring.

I make you this promise. When we are married, I will deliver you a son.

I have yet to decide whether to make your bedmate a head shorter.

So you can have your lovers and I have my own, but at the end, we return to one another.

If you are not careful and a bastard is conceived, you will be ruined.

Everything will change for her. That kiss is her destiny and fortune.

So, what about this girl, this putain, the king's whore? Why doesn't somebody just get rid of her?

Have any of the women you've bedded with lied about their virginity?

Pretty, witty Nell, don’t forget you are mine until I say so.

Do you seriously expect me to be the first Prince of Wales in history not to have a mistress?

I will teach you many things, how to please a man and in turn, you will be my eyes and ears in court.

I thought you wished for us to be over.

How can I when you plague my mind at every turn.

Let me have you, at least once. Many women would consider it an honor.

that little forced marriage drabble from tacky has me thirtsty, do you have any recs for forced dating / forced marriage? 🩵

Right?? I am salivating over that wip, come answer for your crimes @tackytigerfic! I do, in fact, have a few recs for that trope (not enough! would love to find more because That Old Black Magic made me feral for it). I hope you enjoy these, please note that not all of them are enemies to lovers:

Take the Moon by @tackytigerfic (E, 15k)

Harry Potter has always wanted a family of his own, and when a deadly blood curse forces him into a marriage bond with his best friend Draco Malfoy, it looks like he might just have found one. It's just a shame they’d always planned to break up after a year…

The Marriage Contract series by @fluxweeed (E, 15k)

In what universe is it fair that marrying Draco Malfoy is the only way for Harry to get his magic back?

The Matchmaker's Spell by @kbrick (E, 21k)

Thanks to a spell cast over all of wizarding Britain, Draco is forced to marry Harry Potter, who still hates him. But Draco refuses to live a cold, sexless existence, choosing to fill the emptiness in his life and his bed with a parade of lovers. And while Harry may not be able to stand Draco, he despises seeing him with anyone else.

The Only Magic Left Between Us by @lqtraintracks (E, 24k)

Harry goes to the market and ends up having to save Draco Malfoy’s life with sex. He saves Draco’s life with sex and ends up with a husband. The last thing he expects in all of it is to fall in love.

You'll Still Find Stone by flightinflame (M, 42k)

Draco had to marry Potter to stay out of Azkaban. Narcissa told him he’d be safer there. But he doesn’t know what Potter expects from him - this marriage is nothing like he had been prepared for. Potter’s acting kindly, and he knows it’s all a trick. He’s just about coping, but trying to keep Potter happy becomes more important than ever when he realises he’s carrying the man’s child.

what husbands are for by @softlystarstruck (E, 52k)

To settle tensions between werewolves and vampires, Harry volunteers for a political marriage. But it turns out he's marrying Malfoy– cold, untouchable Malfoy, who he hasn't seen in ten years. Throughout contention and politics, werewolf pub nights and grudgingly shared meals, they have to make it work.

That Old Black Magic by @bixgirl1 (E, 77k)

Centuries ago, marriage contracts were the norm — ready-made alliances between families, expected and complied with, without complaint. But norms have a way of changing, and when a long-dormant contract flares to life, Harry has to navigate an unexpected splintering of the path he'd thought would be easy after the war... with Draco Malfoy.

Merlin Works in Mysterious Ways by lordhellebore (M, 82k)

When Harry is forced to form a Blood Bond with Draco Malfoy under threat of death, he thinks his future will consist of a cold home and sexual frustration. But when a group of left-over Death Eaters decides to stir trouble, their lives change completely – and it takes them both some years to figure out whether it’s for better or for worse.

Grounds for Divorce by Tepre (E, 122k)

Malfoy finds a coin. Harry finds a letter. A story about histories, a story about families. A story about a lemon tree somewhere in Upper Egypt.

The Marriage of True Minds by Lomonaaeren (E, 204k)

Lucius curses Harry and Draco into a forced marriage. They're only required to live together, not be together, and so they try to date other people. But over time, things change.

short asteroid edition observations :

ꜰᴏʟʟᴏᴡɪɴɢ ɪꜱ ᴛʜᴇ ɪɴꜰᴏʀᴍᴀᴛɪᴏɴ ᴄᴏʟʟᴇᴄᴛᴇᴅ ᴀɴᴅ ꜱᴛᴜᴅɪᴇᴅ ɪɴ ɪɴᴅɪᴠɪᴅᴜᴀʟ ᴄʜᴀʀᴛꜱ.ᴛʜɪꜱ ᴍᴀʏ ᴏʀ ᴍᴀʏ ɴᴏᴛ ᴀᴘᴘʟʏ ᴛᴏ ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴄʜᴀʀᴛ.

ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴏɴᴇ ᴘʟᴇᴀꜱᴇ ꜰɪɴᴅ ᴍᴇ ᴍʏ ᴏʟᴅ ᴀꜱᴛᴇʀᴏɪᴅ ᴏʙꜱᴇʀᴠᴀᴛɪᴏɴꜱ ᴘᴏꜱᴛ 😫 ɪᴛ'ꜱ ʟᴏꜱᴛ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴡʜᴇʀᴇ - ʟᴍᴋ ɪꜰ ᴀɴʏ ᴏꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ʜᴀᴠᴇ ɪᴛ ʀᴇᴘᴏꜱᴛᴇᴅ ꜱᴏᴍᴇᴡʜᴇʀᴇ.

𖦆 ASTEROID AURA 1488

this particular asteroid helps you to find out what kind of "vibe" you give off to people in general. this isn't your first impression but it's your entire vibe - as the word "aura" suggests. in my observation,more than physical beauty - this actually sums up about the beauty of your personality. if one has aura 1488 in the 11th house - this could indicate having a friendly and open vibe naturally. if it's in scorpio,it could indicate a magnetizing, mysterious vibe. if it's in 4th house and in virgo, it could indicate a caring vibe + a very practical one - so you need to keep in mind the house and the sign. the only way this asteroid can talk about physical beauty is when it's aspected by venus - positive aspects can talk about the positive physical attractive pull you may have when people interact with you generally.

also this asteroid can tell you about the "aura/vibe" of any relationship that people get through the composite chart with your lover or friend or even enemy. if you wanna know about your vibe with your spouse - check it's placement in the groom/briede persona chart. for instance,if it's in the 8th house - it could indicate as a vibe that you don't reveal much and are very private in your matters. if in 7th,it could indicate that they view you as an ideal couple/relationship unless aspected by malefics.

𖦆 ASTEROID VESTA 4 (18+ themes)

someone had sent me a message in my inbox asking how to find out if one wants to know how they may lose their virginity - and i didn't reply to it because i thought i'd add it here. there's no asteroid or placement that can accurately pinpoint one's first experience but asteroid vesta can help you find out an overall view about it. vesta being in 1st house, could indicate losing it when you're in a place familiar to you like your home or your friend's home or maybe just a place that's similar to you (unless the planets aspecting suggest something else) - if it's aspected by saturn,then the experience you've dreamed or fantasized about - may not come true on your first time because it may hurt a little or feel as though it was not the most smoothest. venus aspecting positively can suggest a sensual first experience. another example is vesta in 8th or scorpio, which could suggest hidden themes - vesta in 12th could suggest a place that's away from home unless planet moon is aspecting it because moon is all about the feeling of homeliness at times. so you just need to see the planets,aspects,signs and house and then draw a rough estimate conclusion to this experience.

𖦆 ASTEROID OCTAVIA 598

having this asteroid in your 7th natal house, sidereal house or groom/briede persona chart could indicate chances of marrying a spouse with some sort of political/authoritative powers and later on having disputes with them. positive aspects can suggest that the marriage may have a strong union , however negative aspects to this particular placement in the chart , could indicate divorce/seperation as well - if in 5th house,it could indicate attracting partners with such abilities easily. for some,it could also mean to marry for family's alliances. for a background guide, octavia was the sister of octavian who was married to mark antony (as a political alliance). They were later divorced in 32 BC -

𖦆 ASTEROID LUST 4386 (18+ themes)

i think pretty much everyone in the astro community knows that this asteroid represents our sexuality and fantasies regarding sex and even kinks - that's quite general - but if you want to know what fantasies you and your fs may together have then you should look for this asteroid in the briede/groom persona chart - and if you wanna look for for it in your current relationship, check it in the composite chart - it was hella accurate for my friend - she had it in the 10th house together in sagittarius square mars - she told me they had this kink to do it in their workplace hidden from all plus do it rough. secondly, the guy also had a kink of trying to act as a teacher - student relationship role play (which is totally inappropriate in my opinion lol but it's just a role play and i'm just conveying what i found) - and so it can definitely tell you about the couple's fantasies. i can't tell you if they pursued them or not - but it can give you an idea about the wildest desires of the couple.

𖦆 ASTEROID GLO 3267

glo is just another asteroid like aphrodite 1388 - but it represents the natural beauty one may have - the house its in can show where you naturally look attractive with no external effort like makeup,or any changes etc. (unless it's aspected by malefics) -for instance,if it's in the 3rd house - which governs shoulders, arms, hands, upper chest, collarbone etc. - the person may have a natural uniqueness in one of those parts. one of the person with this placement has an impeccably attractive collarbone - do check the signs it's in too.

𖦆 ASTEROID BLESS 92891

where this lies in your natal chart,is where you've been blessed the most in this lifetime - and please don't say "no,i'm not blessed and this and that" -- you're entire life hasn't ended as yet - you never know what the future holds and what blessings you may be getting in the future. this asteroid will be indicating the biggest blessing one may have in this lifetime at any moment of their life. if it's in the 4th house,it's probably a motherly figure or your mom (unless aspected by saturn/neptune/uranus - doesn't mean that she's not a blessing but the circumstances are a little different) - if it'll be the 11th house/taurus - it could easily mean the money you'll accumulate - if it's 5th house/leo/sun aspects - it could mean the power you'll be getting or the artistic talent divine has given you. remember to use your blessings in the right way for a brighter future.

𖦆 ASTEROID BACCHUS 2063

if conjunct with your NN, aspecting your ascendent or aspected by your sun - this could indicate that there's a 85% chance that your hunger/appetite for something is never ending at times. based on other placements,you need to be careful with your greed at times. greed could be about anything - even as little as food,as big as love or even money - maybe acknowledgement or adventure - but such people have a habit of overindulgence most of the times. just be a little careful.

𖦆 ASTEROID KISS 8267

pretty simple - and quite known. you can look at your kissing preferences,style and desires through this placement in the natal chart but if you really wanna find out how your first kiss with someone may potentially be like - you can find out with the help of this asteroid in the composite chart - but remember,i mentioned potential because you can use this with unknown people like celebs but the likelihood of happening will be very less. you can check it out with other people as well. - for eg. having it in 11th in pisces could mean that your first kiss with that person maybe near friends/people/at a party or near water. could be quite sweet, sensual but fast - maybe just a peck. if aspected by mars,it could mean that it may proceed to more than a kiss.

𖦆 ASTEROID BAMBI 15845

wherever this asteroid sits in , usually represents where people feel as though they can easily target you. they see it as you vulnerability,for instance if it's in your 1st house then people may feel as though it is your appearance that you're conscious about or is your weakness in a way. however,in my case and the cases i've studied - i've found the zodiac sign that it's in to be more accurate,for eg. in my case - it's in aries and so people may feel as though my impulsiveness and impatience is my weakness that they can take advantage of - however my 3rd house where it's situated in,is not the most accurate - as i don't usually quarrel with my sibling neither did anyone try to bully me in kindergarten times ( although they may have intended to 👀 i mean who am i to know their intentions -) nevertheless, for some it's the sign that's accurate and for some it's the house - for others it's the combo of both - however,in the cases i've studied,the signs and their associations are the most accurate.

𖦆 ASTEROIDS PLACEMENTS PRONE TO ADDICTIONS (ESP. DRUGS)

asteroid beer 1896 aspecting ascendent or MC/conjuct pluto - asteroid blow 19582 conjunct/aspecting pluto/neptune/chart ruler - asteroid dionysus 3671 aspecting MC and AC in any way - asteroid san jose 6216 conjunct chart ruler - asteroid grass 11496 conjunct vertex/NN/jupiter ~ there are many more aspects and asteroids,but if you have one of these just be careful around addictions like drugs etc. because you could be prone to it easily -- on the contrary,if you have pluto conjunct AC it's a clear indication - that you'll most likely never be addicted to drugs because pluto knows how to keep control. in that case,such asteroids won't matter much.

𖦆 ASTEROID DEMETER 1108

check which planets are aspecting it - if it's aspected by Jupiter negatively - it may indicate over indulging in food or the tendency to be over weight easily. if aspected by saturn harshly,it can indicate eating disorders or issues with food as well. if certain medical asteroids like asteroid hygeia 1862, aescualpia 2878 etc . are conjuncting or aspecting asteroid demeter,it is said to have serious food -related health issues/ digestive issues later on in life but this theory is not tested by me personally in charts so i can't say whether it's true or not.

𖦆 ASTEROID AMOR 1221

this is a love asteroid that's based upon unconditional love that one offers to give to the ones they truly love. people usually interpretate it as the love someone shows for their romantic partners only - but that's not really true, this asteroid shows how you act around people you truly, truly love . this love can be platonic and romantic,both. it can also show the actions you may show to friends or family that is dear to you. for eg. having this asteroid in the 4th aspected by moon positively,can show that you love doing little homely actions cooking, cleaning, advising, protecting and comforting the other to show them that you love them truly. this actions aren't really thought about - rather they are just something that comes naturally to you.

𖦆 ASTEROID COELUM 15388

coelum means "heaven" - this can literally show what one may feel what afterlife's heaven may be like OR it could show what one desires the most in this lifetime personally - for eg. having it in the 9th could show higher spiritual learning, traveling and knowledge. 8th could show the ability to solve mystery, learning astrology and occult etc. 7th could show having the best possible, long term relationship with someone. as for the afterlife's heaven - this could show that one may believe that the afterlife's heaven would strictly be based on actions one does today(7th is legal terms too) - of course afterlife's heaven is for those who believe in it - for the rest,it means the second option mainly.

Hey beca! How are you? Do you have any recommendations fic like hl already in relationships, mpreg harry, they struggle to have a baby? Or arranged married? That have 100k words above? Thanks

Hi anon, thanks for the message! I'm doing fine, I hope you are too. :)

The only one I have mpreg!Harry that they struggle to have a baby is this one:

I Hope You Dance by @wickedarcher_08 (83k) | Explicit

Louis and Harry have been struggling with infertility for over a year. After many failed attempts, they decide to seek a specialist, but they end up with more than they ever dreamed.

For mpreg!Harry that is +100k words, I have:

Say Something by @kingsofeverything (105k) | Explicit

At fifty years old and recently divorced, Omega Harry Styles isn’t interested in dating. When his doctor suggests a heat and rut matching service, he signs up out of necessity. It’s the only use he has for an Alpha in his life.

Twenty-eight-year-old Alpha Louis Tomlinson aims to change that.

I also have a tag for Mpreg fics in case you wanna check if there's any other to your liking.

For arranged married, I've read these:

Through Eerie Chaos by @mediawhorefics (102k) | General Audiences

For as long as anyone can remember, Old Hillsbridge Manor has always been believed to be haunted. Everyone in the village agrees and keeps a respectful, fearful, distance. New in town after a bad breakup and an internship that led to disappointment rather than a permanent job, Harry Styles figures taking pictures of the decrepit building could be a great new creative project. Or at least a much-needed distraction while he searches for a job and crashes at his parents’ new house. No one warned him about the apparitions though; about the music, the laughter, the people who flicker and vanish when you call after them, the echoes of a past that should be long gone… Harry has never believed in spirits but even he can admit that there’s something weird going on. What starts as mere curiosity evolves into a full-blown investigation and soon enough, Harry finds himself making friends with an aristocrat from the 1920s and struggling with finding the best way to tell him that he’s dead.

The Ghost Hunter AU where Niall lives to prove ghosts are real, Zayn is a skeptical librarian and Harry gets caught up in a century-old mystery and catches feeling in the process.

Part 1 of Through Eerie Chaos

tastes like summer, smiles like may by @outropeace (47k) | Explicit

“Is this true?” Harry grabbed the beta by the shoulders. “Bryce, where did you hear that?”

“There’s rumors going around the castle,” he smirked. “stories about his beauty and his cold attitude. They know he is an omega only because of his scent, but he has never had a heat.”

“Do you know what this means?”

Bryce smirk grew into a big smile. “He can’t give you an heir.”

A cold prince, an alpha with nothing left to lose and a kingdom with a secret.

Praise the Mutilated World by @creamcoffeelou, @delsicle (106k) | Explicit

It was August when everything changed.

By October, the leaves changed, and so did Louis’ heart.

OR: An enemies to lovers dystopian au where Harry is an elite alpha and Louis is a rebel omega with too much to fight for. Every move made is monitored, and a fertile omega’s purpose in life is one thing: to give children to their alpha.

a dream is a wish your heart makes by orphan_account (22k) |Teen And Up Audiences

Fairytale retelling of Cinderella, where Harry is a servant boy who’s too kind, Louis is a prince in an arranged marriage, Liam is Harry’s step brother, and Niall is Louis’ dutiful grand duke.

Si Pudiera Volar by @softfonds (68k) | Explicit

When Harry’s fiancé leaves him for his cousin, he looks the other way for the sake of his happiness. He’ll do anything to forget about him, including joining a monastery. It isn’t until his cousin’s former lover, a pirate, appears that he realizes everything is not as it appears, and an honest pirate might be the only person worthy of his heart.

Or, a fic loosely based on Corazon Salvaje.

The Murmur of Yearning by @mediawhorefics (93k) | Mature

Four years ago, Harry Styles was forced into a marriage of convenience to enrich and ally both his and his promised’s families. The sudden, and slightly suspicious, death of the Marquess of Haxshire, however, brings great disturbance to Crescentfield Hall and, as his late’s husband’s closest male relative, Harry unexpectedly finds himself the head of a family he never felt he belonged to. Between a meddling distant cousin hellbent on inserting himself in Harry’s life, his wicked and mistrustful mother-in-law and his late husband’s advisors refusing to help or take him seriously, Harry struggles in the fight to keep what he’s earned and make the Estate finally feel like home.

Luckily, he doesn’t stand completely alone and finds himself an unlikely ally in Mr Tomlinson, the elusive Land Stewart who has been taking care of the property in the shadows for years. Louis Tomlinson is caring, patient, and unlike everyone else, he doesn’t seem to think Harry committed a murder.

the sanctity of patience by @scrunchyharry (22k) | Teen And Up Audiences

When young Lord Harry was chosen by King Louis of Bavaria to become his husband and prince consort, Harry thought all of his dreams had come through. His illusions came crashing down when he understood it meant living in isolation in the alpine castle of Neuschwanstein with a husband who turned out to be far from what he had hoped for.

His illusions vanished, Harry will have learn to appreciate what has and even, perhaps, fall in love with his imperfect husband and his castle.

Winter Pines and Ocean Eyes by @binarysunsets (14k) | Teen And Up Audiences

Harry is awoken by the sudden weight of his dog across his chest, and he yawns and stretches his arms above his head, relishing the crack of his back the gesture produces and sending Fen tumbling down onto the bed. There’s a niggling sensation that he has something important to do that day, but in his still-sleepy state he’s struggling to recall what it is. When it hits him, he freezes mid-rub of his eyes, and his hand slowly falls to the furs strewn across the bed. His fingers tangle into the fur and he bites his lip.

Right. It’s that day.

The day he’s meant to travel south.

Or, the arranged marriage au between young viking Harry, son of his clan’s chief, and a certain caesar by the name of Louis, heir to the empire.

Liberté by @larriebane(64k) | Mature

AU. 1647. “Pretending you don’t have a heart is not the best way to not get it broken. It’s just the easiest.”

Or the pirate AU I always wanted to write

Teenage Rebellion Never Worked Out So Well by @panda_bear21 (55k) | Not Rated

“I’m an adult!” He glanced down at Harry, who seemed anything but at the moment, where he was definitely on the brink of a temper tantrum. “We’re both adults!” Jay glanced to Anne again, before breathing out a heavy sigh. “Yes, but you’re both adults that do not have jobs and who live off of our money… Which means, you have to do what we say… or you’ll have to find a new place to live.” “You wouldn’t do that.” Louis dared, hoping his glare was enough to guilt trip his mother into calling the whole thing off. Or to tell them that it had all just been a huge joke and they weren’t actually being forced into marrying a complete stranger. “Oh, but we would.”

Or the super cliché arranged marriage fic where things escalate way too quickly.

infinitely all for me by @swallowsmateforlife (10k)| Explicit

The Alpha Louis’ been betrothed to since he was 14 has finally come of age and Louis’ been delivered to his home.

or: the one where they figure it all out

keep me safe, keep me sane, keep me honest by @hilourry (8k) | Explicit

Louis is the Prince of England. All past omega princes and princesses have been married and pregnant at age 18, so his parents arrange him to be married to Harry Styles, the royal family’s PR guy.

Sail Across Me by @iwillpaintasongforlou (21k) | Explicit

Harry is a prince that is about to be forced into marriage against his will and running away to sea seems like a much better option. Louis is the captain of the infamous pirate ship The Rogue and he has a thing for helping defenseless creatures. Especially when they're as pretty as this one.

London is well worth a mass by @dolphinaaaa (93k) | Not Rated

Louis is an Omega prince of France. When he is 13, he is betrothed to Harry of England for politics. The wedding will seal the alliance between the two coutries. This is their story.

Please feel free to check my fic tags if you want to search for other fics! Happy reading, anon!

Author rec : Femmequixotic

One of my favorite authors by far. Here are a few recs, listed in alphabetical order. I’ve read most of those stories multiple times, without any regrets.

All I Want For Christmas (Is For You To Stop Talking) by @femmequixogtic and @noeeon [162k]

The Niffler's Garden is the most prestigious wizarding nursery school in England and has been for the last century or more. Harry Potter's boys are both enrolled as pupils at the Garden. When he volunteers to assist with the Yule pageant, he has no idea that he'll be working closely with another parent, Draco Malfoy. Although they haven't seen each other much since their own school days, Harry faults Malfoy for not being a hands-on dad to little Scorpius. Will the intense weeks of preparation fan the fires of enmity or something else entirely?

Warnings: Background discussion of divorce, coming out, parenting, very brief mention of difficult pregnancy.

Black Holes and Revelations by @femmequixotic [38k]

What was meant to be an unexpected one-off in the loo of a Camden bar turns into something rather different, much to Harry and Draco's surprise.

Boom Clap (The Sound of My Heart) by @femmequixotic and @noeeon [39k]

Post-war Hogwarts has been energized by its new teaching fellows program. Where once bitter enmity divided the wizarding community, Malfoy and Potter chummily patrol hallways together whilst Granger and Zabini seek lost parts of the castle at McGonagall’s behest and Chang supervises Quidditch when not lecturing in Charms. It’s a veritable wizarding utopia and life is predictable for the first time in years. Which is, of course, when everything blows apart as the result of a drunken dare and Malfoy’s life is ruined beyond his capacity to repair it. Ever. In a million years.

Can't Get You Out of My Head by @femmequixotic [14k]

After he sees Harry Potter naked in the Auror showers once, Draco can't stop thinking about him.

Lost In Your Arms by @femmequixotic [257k]

Three months after their brief encounter, Draco has almost forgotten about Potter--or so he tells himself. Then a Dark wizard shows up on the Auror radar and all hell breaks loose. Draco will have to choose between everything he holds dear--everything he's worked so hard for--and a few stolen moments of passion with a certain green-eyed Inspector, once his sworn enemy and now something rather different entirely. He'll make the right choice, won't he?

Who is he kidding? He'll ruin everything, as per usual. Bad choices and the name Malfoy go hand in hand.

These Secrets In Me by @femmequixotic [357k]

Auror Special Branch team seven-four-alpha--Sergeant Draco Malfoy, Constable Pansy Parkinson, and Constable Blaise Zabini led by their SIO, Inspector Harry Potter--must handle personal and political fallout from the implication of Ministry employees and Aurors in the scandal around escaped Death Eaters and a Dementor uprising at Azkaban. On top of that, their original target, Antonin Dolohov, is in the wind.

With all the ruckus, it's a good thing they have help from Unspeakable Hermione Granger, American Unspeakable, Legilimens, and Harry's recent ex, Jake Durant, Blaise's legendary necromancer grandfather, Barachiel Dee, and his potions expert mother, Olivia Zabini. What could possibly go wrong with an army of best friends, ex-lovers, and family? Especially when you add the strong-willed Parkinson clan to the mix.

Meanwhile, troubling new leads arise, taking Our Team in a surprising direction.

And Draco, still hiding his relationship with his SIO from the upper echelons of the Auror force, is definitely not falling in love with Harry Potter along the way. Not at all. Don't be ridiculous.

Dare To Think by @femmequixotic [388k]

After recent events in New York, Seven-Four-Alpha are set to return back to London. They've captured their primary target, but by no means settled their case. They've still got rogue Dementors at Azkaban, prying investigators from Luxembourg, and a far larger Death Eater threat to manage, not to mention pressure from their own higher ups. Draco is reeling from his loss, and Harry is trying to be the best boyfriend he can, which may mean not being Draco's guv any longer. Harry's uncertain what his team'll find as they press deeper in the investigation, but he knows they will all be tested, perhaps more than they can bear.

But they haven't a choice, have they? It's the bloody Death Eaters, after all, and the political integrity of Wizarding Britain and their magical allies hangs in the balance.

Set Me Free by @femmequixotic [196k] *Incomplete

Seven-Four-Alpha are back in London with available resources of the Ministry tracking their every move. Draco Malfoy remains lost, last seen in Thibodaux, Louisiana, as MACUSA was closing in. Harry is raging, barely in control of his magic, and the rest of the team are battered and unsure. Their recent failure haunts them, as does the spectre of a MACUSA-Ministry alliance under the control of the Quahog administration and its shadow puppetmaster, Aldric Yaxley. The Dementor crisis with Luxembourg is brewing in the background, as is a conflict with Rodolphus Lestrange. And that's not even mentioning the bargain Blaise struck with Death to return his cup. The team have very little energy or resources for one fight, much less several of this magnitude simultaneously.

Should they fail, though, political tyranny will grip both sides of the Atlantic and evils recently banished may return. Each of them is fighting for something they hold dear, but no victory comes without a price. Still, desperate situations call for desperate measures, and desperation appears to be all they have.

After the Battle, Harry thinks he's left Hogwarts for good, but Minerva insists that all students return for an Eighth Year if they wish to sit for NEWTs in the spring, and Harry needs those NEWTs to go into the Aurors. Draco's just grateful not to be in Azkaban. Or the Manor. He's hoping he can steer clear of Potter this year and grapple with his own problems. Unfortunately for him, Potter appears to be one of those problems. And that's not even addressing the fact that Potter's got serious issues of his own, which Draco realises as he's forced to share an Eighth Year dormitory room and several classes with the Gryffindor Git. If only they can make it through the year without killing each other, it should be all right, shouldn't it?

Don’t Trust Dumbledore ch26

Harry’s POV

It was weird as hell to be dragged back to the castle by his sleeve inside Malfoy’s mouth. Even if it was as a giant cat. But it gave him a chance to take in the strangely beautiful leopard, Malfoy’s fur was a mix of light and dark grey except his underside and throat which were white. He had dark grey or black spots of different sizes scattered throughout his body, and on all four legs he came to Harry’s stomach.

Harry had to wonder what the average size of a snow leopard was, he had seen one once at a zoo and he was pretty sure it had been smaller than Malfoy.

Once they were inside the cat looked around before started to stand. It was weird, as the snow leopard pushed itself off the ground and started to stand on two feet, it started to looked blurry or unforced and by the time it stood completely, it wasn’t a leopard anymore but Malfoy.

Harry sucked in a breath at the sight. The blonde seemed to ignore him for a second as he brushed dirt off his robes. Then he looked up and grinned at Harry.

“Awesome right?” Malfoy asked looking very smug.

Harry laughed, “Yeah it is.” Then he reached out and grabbed the blonde’s arm and dragged him throughout the castle until they were inside the Room of requirements.

“What happened?” Harry asked sitting on the couch.

He sat there foot tapping on the ground as he tried not to run out of the room, while Malfoy told him everything that happened in the forest. When Malfoy got to the part about him, he rushed to his feet and ran out of the room. He heard Malfoy curse. He ran through the castle, sticking to the shadows, as he did he could hear the blonde following behind him.

He headed straight for the whomping willow. Knowing that that would be where his father and godfather would take a hurt Moony. Of course when he stopped before the tree and pulled out his wand to freeze it, Malfoy grabbed his wrist and pushed his wand back down.

“The hell...Potter?” The blonde asked, trying to catch his breath.

“If Remus is hurt. I know where he will be. We have to check on him.” Malfoy’s hand tightened. “The moon is still out. Potter, you have to wait.”

Harry growled. He looked back at the tree and dropped his shoulders. Malfoy was right. He let Malfoy lead him back towards the castle. The blonde found them a small spot, hidden by bushes to hide in, they could still see the tree, and that helped Harry relax.

He was too worried to sit in silence, “Tell me about your mum?” He whispered.

He felt Malfoy tense but after a second the blonde relaxed.

“What about her?” He whispered back.

“Well, your father and Snape are…” Harry tried to think of a polite way to ask, you father and the future potions master were having sex. But the words failed him. Though he heard a snort from the blonde next to him.

“Shagging?” Malfoy asked with surprisingly little venom in his tone. Harry looked over at him with a raised brow.

The blonde chuckled,“My mother and father, were never in love. Their marriage was arranged by their parents. When the Dark Lord started becoming popular my grandfather was drawn to his power, his ideals. He wanted to be a part of that, and he wanted his family to as well. An alliance with the Black family, an old noble, dark wizarding family was a good start. He gave my father no choice, and to disobey would have meant disownment and exile. My grandfather had many enemies already. They would have gone after my father, just to spite my grandfather. My mother was a Black, born and raised, she was proud to be a pureblood and more than happy to follow a powerful man who preached about purity and killing muggles. The only concession to my father was that she had to give him a child. Something my grandfather knew father wanted.” The blonde sighed.

“Abraxas Malfoy passed away shortly before...well you defeated the Dark Lord. But by then mother was about to give birth, and father was trapped by his allegiances. If he had tried to break away, he would have been killed by Death Eaters for betraying them. And if he had tried to go to the light side, no one would have believed him. So, he stayed, planned, and manipulated his way to gain power inside the Minestay and of course, staying out of Azkaban.”

“And now?” He asked, looking at his friend.

“Same really.” Malfoy shrugged, “Father is powerful, both magically and politically. He has spent most of his life walking a fine line, between light and dark magic to be so. But with the Dark Lord back, he is as stuck as he ever was. If he tried to leave he would have enemies from both sides after him, ‘To many enemies and not enough allies,.’ is what he told me when I asked.” Again Malfoy sighed, “As for my mother. She hates him. She knows he doesn’t believe in the same things she does, but she also knows he has more influences then she does. So, she keeps quiet. Despite that, their dislike for each other, neither of them will seek another lover. My father has to much honor and mother knows it could ruin her standing if it ever got out.” Malfoy dropped his head and glared at the ground.

“What about divorce?” He asked, though he wasn’t sure how that worked in the wizarding world.

“It would be seen as him dishonoring the agreement made. He gave his word. Her family would take it personally and shame him. It would impact his standing with a majority of pure blood families.The only exception is a Mate, but those are rare.” He must have looked confused, because Malfoy rolled his eyes.

“A Mate, is something that is known but not spoke of. The Descendants like you and I, and some of the other wizards with creature blood, werewolves, vampires, and kin, have been known to be drawn to specific people. Ones that on some insticutal level they can’t be without. They complete each other and connect in a way other wizards envy.”

“Hell.” He mumbled, more information he wasn’t sure he wants to know about his inheritance.

He tried to wrap his head around feeling bad for Lucius Malfoy. He understood people making choices for you, taking away your right to control your own life, and he felt bad. He wondered if the shame things Malfoy has mentioned was really that bad. Surely, not all the pureblood families agreed to forced marriages. He wondered what Sirius or Remus would think.

Wait, He looked over at Malfoy who was staring off into space.

Then he chuckled, gaining the slytherin's attention.

“Malfoy, who is head of the Black family right now?” He asked smirking.

Malfoy’s eyes narrowed, and then after a second widened.

“Sirius.” He muttered.

Harry nodded.

“I...”Malfoy open and closed his mouth, clearly trying to take in this information. “When we get back,” the blonde said sounding serious, “I’ll talk to father.” The blonde met his eyes, “Will you speak to your godfather?” He asked. Harry nodded. Malfoy smiled happily at him.

They fell quiet after that. Malfoy clearly thinking about the future conversation with his father, and Harry staring at the whomping willow waiting for the moon to fade. When it finally did, he shot to his feet running towards the willow. He heard Malfoy curse, again, as he chased after him.

When he finally reached the end of the long dark tunnel and entered the shrieking shack it was empty.

Remus’s POV

He woke up, or regained his mind, whichever it was that really happened, as the moon fell away from the sky. He didn’t even have to open his eyes to know it was gone, he could feel it. Just like he could feel the deep slashes in his side and the pain radiating along his spine. He cursed, opened his eyes, and sat up.

Despite the pain, he was already healing, a plus to his werewolf side. He sighed and looked around, there a large black bundle of tangled fur laying next to him and a huge brown stag was at his feet. He tried to find Peter but he couldn’t see or hear the rat.

He groaned and reached over, “Siri.” he shook his friend. And from the low growl, Sirius wasn’t happy about it. He sighed and shook him again. Finally the dog looked up at him, there was an excited whine, before the fur fell away and Sirius jumped to his two feet.

“Moony!" You okay?" He nodded he was quickly tackled, causing a low moan because of the pain from his side.

“What happened?” He asked pushing his idiot best friend off of him.

“Cursed bear.” James voice carried from over them. He looked up at his friend and winced, James had a couple deep bruises on his face and he seemed to be favoring his left side. He hated when one of them got hurt while out here with him. He had tried many times to talk them out of coming but always failed. He also hated that he would be healed in a matter of hours and his friends wouldn’t.

Instead of focusing on what he couldn’t change, he focused on what his friend had said, “Here? How?”

“Don’t know.” James shrugged, “but it was huge. I don’t even know anyone that can lay a curse like that. Let alone on an animal as large as a bear.”

“Not to mention,” Sirius added, “There are no bears in these woods. We have hunted in them for two year now, we would have seen one if there was.”

Remus dropped back down against the ground, not unaware that Siri was still on top of him.

“Should I tell the Headmaster?” He muttered.

“No.” Both his friends hissed. He sighed, already knowing the reasons why. He didn’t remember much when he was Moony. Giving any detail about the bear, would make the Headmaster suspicious and place his friends in danger.

“I know.” He said, before they could start.

“It’s dead anyways.” Sirius said, shifting his weight a little, then dropping his head on Remus’s chest. He had to force his heart not to race. Sometimes he loved his friend’s lack of care for personal space, but on days after the full moon, when Moony was stronger and harder to fight. It was hard to ignore how badly the wolf wanted his friend. And right now, him naked and exhausted with Sirius just casually using him as a pillow, it took every last drop of his remaining control not to do something stupid.

“You killed it?” He asked look at James, because he couldn’t look at Sirius. Though it was Sirius who snorted.

“It was a team effort.” James said, sending a frustrated glare and their friend.

“That’s…” He started, Geat? Good? Fucked? What exactly would be the right word for holy hell you killed a giant cursed bear?

Siri snickered, obviously knowing what he was thinking. But James frowned.

“It wasn’t just us.” his friend said, sitting down on the ground next to them.

“There was a leopard. Had have been an animagus from the way the way it acted. But why it helped us? Or who it was, I don’t know.” James said, looking worried.

“It wouldn’t have helped us, if it meant trouble.” Siri said.

“Possibly,” James agreed, “but if it was an animagus it knows we are too.”

Remus sighed, “Right now, it doesn’t matter. You two need to get back to the dorms before anyone notices your gone. Hopefully Peter is already there.” The both gave him unhappy looks.

“Go.” He said in the stern voice, one he knew worked on both of them. James glared at him, the dominant creature inside not likely being bossed around. But then he sighed, stood up, dropped Remus’s wand next to his head, reached down grabbed a grumbling Sirius and dragged him off.

“Bye Moony!” Sirius shouted as he stumbled behind their other friend.

After that he got to his feet and searched for one of the bags they kept hidden throughout the forest with clothes for him. He found one close the the dead bear, which was convinect as he wanted to investigate it.

There was a smell coming off the bear and the area around it. Moony’s sense of smell and his memory recognized it, Luke , the new slytherin. He exhaled. It would explain why the new kid had kept his secret. Probably how he knew. If he could use his leopard senses while human, he maybe have scented the wolf inside Remus.

He turned and hissed as the skin on his side pulled at his wounds. Maybe he should rest a bit before returning to the castle. He headed for the shack.

He was just in time to see Luke and Even stun the willow and head into the tunnel. He stood there frozen for a second. How had they known?

He growled out frustrated, maybe it was time to ask them. He jogged down and into the tunnel before the willow started moving again.

He walked carefully as he neared the entrance to the shake, and as he got closer he could hear voices.

“What the hell?” He heard Luke curse.

“It’s where he changes. Or used to, by now I think he changes in the woods with the others.” Evan replied. Causing Remus to stop moving. Maybe he didn't have to confront them, all he had to do was listen.

“Explain.” Luke groaned, sounding annoyed.

He heard a sigh, “It safe here. He can change and not have to worry about hurting anyone.” Evan said, “But by now, the others have become animagus and he can change out in the forest with them. They keep his werewolf from hurting others..or himself. ” Remus’s stomach knotted, Evan sounded, so sad for him. He wasn’t sure he had ever heard anyone sound like that when talking about him before. He closed his eyes.

“Maybe he wasn’t that hurt?” Luke’s voice said, surprisingly gentle. Remus opened his eyes and wondered if it was time to rethink his outlook on slytherins.

“You said that thing hurt him. He should be here.” There was a waiver to Evan’s voice, the other gryffindor was truly worried about him.

“Maybe he is still out in the woods with the freakishly large dog and slightly terrifying stag.” There was a shifting sound of someone moving and then an “Owww.”

“Don’t joke about them.” He heard Evan snap, but he sounded better, less worried. Remus was betting Luke had made the comment on purpose, but why?

He was debating entering the room when he heard something behind him. He jumped and turned around only to find Lucius Malfoy standing there. He stood frozen.

“Not my fault Potter turns into a stag.” Luke muttered behind him. His eyes widen and he felt for his wand. He didn’t know what he would do but he couldn’t let Malfoy know about his friends.

There was a snort behind him, “I like Siri’s dog form more.” Evan joked.

Malfoy didn’t move, and he couldn’t just attack. Which left them both just standing there, listening to the boys in the room.

“I bet my father would love to know about this.” Luke said.

“He knows about Remus remember, third year?” Evan snapped. What the hell? Remus thought, dying to turn around and go into the room and demand answers.

There was a sigh from Luke, “I’m sorry about that. Alright? We weren’t friends then and I didn’t know how important he was to you.” A sigh, “Not that I think I could have stopped my father.”

What were they talking about? How did Evan know him? And why would he be important to him? He felt Moony’s need to growl. And he couldn’t just stand here anymore. There wasn’t much he could do about Malfoy right now, not without starting a duel he was too exhausted to win. So, he let go over his wand and turned around ready to storm into the room and finally demand answers.

Only his arm was grabbed and he was slammed against the wall, a hand pressed over his mouth.

“Wait.” Malfoy growled, “I already had suspicions about you. And could care less about Potter or Black. However, I am most curious about these two.” The slightly taller blonde whispered. Then he slowly let him go and backed away.

He wasn’t sure what to do, but heard one of the other two sigh and the sound of someone dropping down onto the group with a heavy thud.

“What’s wrong?” Luke’s gentle voice asked, and then Remus heard another thud as the other boy sat down.

“I don’t know if I can keep doing this.” Evan mumbled.

“We have no choice.” Luke said, “Until we find a way home. We are stuck here. Blending in and staying out of trouble,” a snort, “is the only way that’s possible.”

“I’m sick of blending in!” Evan shouted and from the scrapping Remus could hear, it sounding like he struggling back to his feet. “I’m sick of having to stare at Pettigrew's disgusting face every morning, knowing what he will do, what he will become. I’m tired of having to sit and listen to him talk and joke with my father and my godfather like he isn’t the one that is going to destroy their lives. Like he is their friend. All I want to do is tell Remus protect Sirius, stop him before he makes the biggest two mistakes of his life.” Evan let out a frustrated sob, “I want to tell my parents not to trust Dumbledore, warn them about what’s going to happen to them, or hell, ask my father what is bloody going on with me because I feel like I’m going insane.”

“You think I don’t have questions!” Luke snapped back, “My father is shagging my godfather! And don’t you think I want to warn them too. Tell father how miserable his going to be with mother, or about the stupid mind games my grandfather is going to play with him. How he is going to end up trapped and cowering to madman all because of power!” A pause, “But we can’t.”

“Harry, I know how badly you want to save them. To save everyone. But we can’t. If we warn them, we risk changing the future in ways we can’t imagine. Remember? You were the one to tell me that.

There was a weak chuckle.

“What?” Luke asked.

“You called me Harry,” another chuckle followed by a sigh, “Draco, I just want to go home.”

“Me too.” Luke muttered.

Remus tried to take it all in. But his mind was spinning and from the bewildered look on Lucius Malfoy, he was just as lost and confused. He was about to ask...well he wasn't really sure what he was going to ask, when heard movement from the room, two sets of feet moving towards them.

He cursed under his breath, grabbed Lucius arm and rushed towards the entrance to the tunnel before they could be seen.
