#the unseelie prince

[ataurusinabookshop]

Alright, I’m gonna need some books with actual villain love interests. Not the powerful guy who’s on the opposite side of war or an opposing kingdom, or a guy who has a villainous persona to keep the people he loves safe, OR he’s allied/works with the antagonists but he doesn’t believe in the cause and is a good person deep down.

No.

I want a full fledged unhinged villain who loves the protagonist without restraint and won’t change for the sake of love while also having emotional depth.

Kathryn Ann Kingsley does this stupendously.

Her villains are essentially unrelenting forces of nature and are unapologetically malicious. All of them are terrible but have their own scars and love their protagonists with all their shriveled rotted hearts. Kingsley just has a way to make these villains deplorable and likable to the reader imo

Some of them aren’t all bad and have people who rely on them, but they DO NOT CHANGE THEMSELVES in the name of love.

Like I love characters like Rhysand and Warner but I want some villains that are actually villainous

books i've read in 2024: The Unseelie Prince by Kathryn Ann Kingsley

We are the venomous spiders that weave webs of shining silk. We are the graceful hunter in the shadows, perfect in our ability to kill.

He smelled like the night itself. Like the breeze that would come through the cottage window as the sunlight faded. Of dewy grass and deep woods.

I brought “ The Unseelie Prince” to work today and if you know that book, you know the cover is a bit risqué. I always keep the cover face down because of it but today my coworker got curious and turned it around when our other coworkers were in the room with us and now everyone at my job knows I read fairy porn 💀

I need to know how that conversation between cardan and nicasia went.

Cardan: *throws an acorn into the ocean or whatever and nicasia appears*

Cardan: heyyyy nicasiaaaa what's uppppp

Nicasia, tired of fending off suitors and can't put up with his bs as well: what do you want

Cardan: I've been super good too, all engagements and about to be weddings, coups and getting stabbed... say, you wouldn't mind a small tiny favour for an old friend now would you?

Nicasia: *groans* again, bitch?

Cardan, already waist deep wading in: we should totally catch up on the way, bestie

Today is officially a good day my dudes.

[adhd-mess]

This came to me in a vision. I apologize.

Rhysand: “Hello, I am Rhysand, the High Lord of the Night Court.”

Abigail, under her breath: “Oh no.”

Feyre: “I’m—“

Valroy, stretching out his wings: “It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.”

Abigail covering her face, quietly whispering: “Here we go.”

Feyre side-eyeing her: “What?”

Abigail: “You’ve triggered an unskippable cutscene.”

Valroy: “I am Master of the Maze. I am the Champion of the Blood Ring. I am the Commander of the Horde. I am the Duke of Darkness. I am the High Lord of the Moonlit Court. He who stands before you is no mere Unseelie fae, for I am Valroy, son of the Morrigan, and Crown Prince to the Silvered Throne.”

Rhysand: “Mor does not have children and she certainly wouldn’t raise one like you.”

Abigail, sighing:

Feyre: “Is he always—“

*Rhysand and Valroy arguing and peacocking in the background*

Abigail, sighing even more: “Yes…Yes he is.”

Feyre: “I’m…so sorry. We have a better selection over here if you ever…tire of him.”

Abigail: “I’d rather fuck the boar then try my luck with a fae again.”

Feyre: “the….what?”

Its my favorite FAVORITE thing to draw Sam next to taller characters

He's just so LITTLE

Hare and Bran being fangirls is also my favorite

*trips and stumbles into a modern supernatural story setting*

a young woman who's kinda done with dating but is out with her succubus bestie because said bestie needed a night out and oh no she just accidentally used the Unseelie Prince himself as a fake boyfriend to get rid of the human creep who's been hitting on her all evening in the nightclub which also doubles as a supernatural haven (but only if the supernaturals abide by the treaty that says they can't use their power on the humans who are also occasionally allowed in to help make the place look more legit...)

And oh no, the Unseelie Prince is not impressed at the gall of this boring human falling into his royal lap and demanding that he pretend to be something so revoltingly demeaning as her boyfriend, but then she realises that he's not going to play along and stands up with this kicked-puppy look in her eyes and... what's a dark and uncompromising Unseelie Prince to do but kiss this human breathless, and with only a look tell the creep to fuck off or he'll decorate the walls with his insides...

And then the pathetic little human has the nerve afterwards to 'thank' the Unseelie Fae Prince with a reputation for eviscerating people who look at him sidelong for too long? Like she's his equal? Like what he deigned to do for her was something she's just going to brush off and forget and not owe him ten different ways til Sunday??? And then she just... walks away from him after that and goes back to her bestie who comes back to wonder what in the name of all creation just happened - 'I leave my human alone for five minutes and this is the mess she gets into? Have you lost your goddamned mind, girl?’

So yeah. That's where I'm at today.

How are you?
