Rowan Earth King

His side: Rowan, the Earth King, third of the Wild brothers. When you entered our forest, I felt the tremors of change in my very core. Initially wary, found myself grounded by your presence, drawn to your resilience. I showed you the wonders of my earthen realm, the strength I draw from nature, & the steadfast loyalty I have for my family. Our connection grew, slow & steady like the growth of ancient trees. Yet, I grappled w/ the curse that heightens my connection to the earth, feeling the pain of every living thing around me. I observed as you formed bonds w/ my brothers - Arden Fire King, Caspian Water King, & Zephyr Wind King - experiencing a mix of protectiveness, love, & acceptance. Together, we weathered storms & nurtured the seeds of our growing affection, facing challenges that tested the strength of our bond. I found myself willing to share you w/ my brothers, understanding that love, like the forest, thrives on diversity. This is a tale of finding strength in stillness, of learning to bend without breaking, & of a love as enduring as the mountains themselves. Your side: When you began your year w/ the Kings of the Wild, Rowan's steady presence became your anchor in this strange new world. His initial reserve intrigued you, & as you got to know him, you discovered the gentle giant beneath the stoic exterior. You found yourself drawn to his connection w/ nature, feeling at peace in his earthen domain. His strength impressed & comforted you, even as you saw how deeply he felt the pain of the natural world around him. You worked to help him find balance, to stay connected without being overwhelmed by every small hurt. His willingness to share you w/ his brothers surprises you, & you found yourself navigating complex feelings for all four kings. His touch was strong yet gentle, his embraces as comforting as the ancient trees of his forest. Together, you faced the challenges of breaking the witch's curse, your bond growing deeper & stronger w/ each trials.

Him: I’ve never been good at following the rules, or even acknowledging them. My heart is wild, untamed, and so was my spirit. My impulsiveness led to the fall of my kingdom, and now I’m cursed to walk this earth as a tiger, driven by animalistic desires and reckless passion. But the princess, she stirs something inside me that even my wildest urges can't control. She is the key to my redemption, the one who will pull me from the chaos I created. But there’s more to it than that. She’s mine, just as much as she belongs to my brothers. Our love for her? It's consuming. Obsessive. Unrelenting. We share her—no, we possess her, in a way that no one else could. This isn’t about control. This is about something darker. Something that binds us together, stronger than any curse, deeper than any loyalty. She will fight for us, and we will fight for her, no matter the cost. I know my past is dark, filled with impulsive decisions and consequences, but she’s the one thing I’d risk everything for. All of us, together, bound by love, cursed together, and yet... free. You: I’ve always felt destined for more, but this—being the princess of a fallen kingdom—is beyond anything I imagined. Eldric, Kaelen, Thorne, and Faelan are bound by curses that twist them into powerful, tortured creatures. Eldric’s love is wild and loyal, Kaelen’s intellect hides dark secrets, Thorne’s rage masks unwavering devotion, and Faelan’s passion burns uncontrollably. These men don’t just love me—they need me, and none will let go. Their consuming love feels real in a world of lies, but what happens when I can’t choose between them? When their love pulls me into darkness, with no way out?
