Title: Cinderella in Chains Writer: delanach Status of work: Complete Characters and/or pairings: Jared/Jensen Rating: NC-17 Warnings, kinks & contents:[Click to read]D/s relationships, mentions of BDSM, mentions of corporal punishment, and some dark themes Length: 23,651 Summary: Written for the j2_fairytales challenge. A retelling of the Cinderella story with added D/s relationships. Jared loses his best friend when they are both children, but he never forgets him. And he never expected that he'd get him back.
Reccer's notes: A magical tale of poor heartsick Jared on a mission to eradicate every wolf from his kingdom and avenge his friend. There is nothing like vengeance and magic going head to head, (and a little Chad), to make everything better. A wonderfully fun reinterpretation of Cinderella with dominance and submission thrown in as well as a proud, possessive Jared. MMMM MMMM good
[Short excerpt]Once upon a time, in a land where dominance and submission were a way of life for every subject, Prince Jared the Fair had reached the age where he should be bonded to a mate, a submissive that would share his life and fulfill his every desire. But for all his travels, for all the balls and parties he’d attended where submissives would happily kneel at his feet hoping to be chosen, he’d not yet met anyone he wanted to be bonded with for the rest of his life.
His parents began to despair that he would ever meet a suitable person, wondering if it was time to suggest an arranged bonding.
Jared insisted that his soul mate was out there, somewhere. He just had to find that special person. But secretly, he wondered if he was capable of falling in love. He’d spent time with many men and women, all beautiful, intelligent, willing submissives. He’d satisfied his need to dominate, and given them nights they would remember always, but never once had he felt drawn to anyone enough to bond with them.
What Jared didn’t realize was that his heart was already broken, and until it healed, he wasn’t capable of love. It had broken when he lost his soul mate, although given he was only eight at the time, Jared had only known then that the boy was his best friend in all the world.
