The Golden Hourglass by Cinder_Quill

Summary
When he failed to get his wish, Jack Horner used his magical artifacts in an attempt to escape Death. He still died, of course; but Death had been injured in a previous fight, leaving the wolf vulnerable. Now Midas’ Touch is spreading, and Death can only slow the process until he finds a cure. He will need help for that, but most magical and non-magical beings would much rather let the embodiment of Death turn into a gold statue forever and grant everyone immortality. Well, most beings.
Or: Death gets a curse, a conscience, and a crush. One might argue he just got three curses. But Midas’ Touch is the more direct threat to his existence and work, so he will look for a solution to this particular problem, and ignore the other two until they go away.

Summary
“I remember a boy, telling the story of someone who shared the same name as the emperor.”
He turned towards Mobei-Jun, just slightly, but kept his distance. “I believe back then it would have been a little prince.”
Movie Jun bent low, letting his voice taper off so as tooff as tooff so as to not be heard by others. “Be careful, Qinghua. That little prince is an emperor now, and disrespect is not to be tolerated.”
Shang Qinghua’s eyes flashed with something indistinguishable, just briefly. “Disrespect,” he repeated, sounding breathless, as if it’d taken all of his courage to lift his hand. “My little prince,” he continued gently, fingers still brushing against Mobei-Jun’s cheek. “My prince, I say it with devotion.”

It had been something he and Gandalf had looked back on with bittersweet laughter.
This Gandalf however noticed his exact words. “Would they now? And what about you, mhm? What would you tell me about adventures?”

Summary
The Mother looked at Prythian and thought it in need of change. But change was difficult with immortal fae, too used to their own ancient ways. The Mother however, in her great power and wisdom, reached out for a rather unique and otherworldly solution…
That’s how Freya fell asleep in her own bed and woke up somewhere else.
She could anticipate many things - being kidnapped by a cult full of weirdos or having her organs sold on the black market.
What she didn't anticipate was being thrown into a body of the MC of a fantasy romance novel, especially one she had dropped after reading just the first few chapters.
What? She really did not like blonds.Series

Summary
Ilya let himself soften into it. He’d missed this, the simple camaraderie between teammates. He did feel lonely, but in some ways he felt safer with this team, and Shane had given him that, it was because of Shane that he moved to Ottawa. All the good things in his life curved back to Shane. Looking around, he tried to imagine him here, not Shane Hollander the hockey player, but his Shane, the man who made the darkest rooms feel like home. He felt suddenly certain that they would welcome him with love and respect. And, God help him, he was still hoping like an idiot that Shane would walk through the door.
Ilya tightened his grip on his roasting stick, jaw set, trying to divert his thoughts back to the present, when a ripple went through the group. Conversation dipped, then stopped completely.
“Um… what the fuck,” Dillon muttered, eyes flicking toward the house. “Is that Shane Hollander?”
Or Shane decides to go get his man after seeing Ilya’s instagram post in Chap.23 of TLG.

Summary
Regulus was an obedient child, therefore the favourite, and therefore spoiled rotten. He grew into a spoiled, mean-spirited youth with a general distaste for all those around him, a mutual distaste. At last, even his parents disliked his rotten nature and wished to marry him off, so they might be rid of him.
Regulus treats insulting his suitors like a sport – a sport he is quite adept at, and so every prince and princess who comes to see and court him, turns away. All but one - a handsome young man with spikey, wild hair like the prongs of a rake. But as Regulus insults him and dubs him "King Prongs", the King has had enough and proclaims that Regulus shall marry the next beggar man to knock on the Castle Doors.This Fairy Tale was my favourite growing up. It's the OG Enemies to Lovers
