Emilia Markham never planned to be queen—especially not to a king everyone fears and no woman survives in his palace. When her family is accused of treason, Emilia makes a bold and reckless choice: She marries King Lucas Rutledge, trading her freedom for their lives. She expects a cold tyrant and a loveless throne. What she doesn’t expect is a palace crawling with jealous women, deadly whispers, and a husband who seems far too interested in provoking her. Lucas is distant, infuriating, and impossible to read. Emilia is sharp-tongued, stubborn, and refuses to play the obedient queen. Their marriage quickly becomes a battle of wills, heated arguments, and dangerous attraction neither of them wants to admit. Surrounded by scheming consorts, a manipulative Queen Mother, and a throne rumored to be cursed, Emilia must learn how to survive royal life without losing herself—or her heart. After all, falling in love with the king who married her for convenience might be the most dangerous move of all.

Taking him under her wing as her personal guard, Nyima’s true intentions remain unclear, even to those closest to her. Three years later, their bond has deepened, but questions linger: Who is Kenji really? Can Nyima navigate the dangerous politics of her kingdom while uncovering the truths of his past? Amid generational revenge, political intrigue, and secret loyalties, Nyima and Kenji must confront their own emotions, the shadows of their families, and the hidden forces that threaten both kingdoms.

NO SMUT. In the crown-bound kingdom of Valedryn, the Church teaches that humanity was cursed by a single girl. Ophelia — the first woman — defied God and was cast out of His garden. For her heresy, Heaven stripped mankind of its magic. Now humans kneel while elves and dwarves wield power like birthrights. Desperate for forgiveness, the priests offer God a penance. Punish the daughters. Girls are named omens, born sinful, and destroyed at birth. Only the most “useful” are spared — raised not as people, but as property of the throne. Veiled. Numbered. Promised to noble houses or the king himself to strengthen bloodlines that Heaven has long abandoned. They are never called she. Only it. Seris Zephyr was meant to be one of them. Too beautiful to discard, she is taken to the palace and groomed to become a royal vessel — obedient, silent, and grateful to serve. But Seris does not bow. She does not kneel. And no prayer has ever left her lips willingly. There is something wrong with her. Candles flare when she’s angry. Doors unlock at her touch. The air bends like it’s listening. Humans are not meant to have power. As whispers of unrest spread through the cathedral courts and the Church hunts for signs of divine punishment, Seris begins to suspect the kingdom’s greatest truth is a lie. Perhaps Ophelia did not curse humanity. Perhaps girls were never the sin. And if the throne discovers what Seris truly is, they won’t crown her. They’ll burn her. Because in Valedryn, a girl who refuses to bow is not just disobedient — she is heresy. PHOTO IS NOT MINE, I GOT IT FROM PINTEREST.

However, she chooses the Illegitimate Prince to marry to change his destiny. **** Sullivan Blackwood is the illegitimate prince of the Ryuxan Kingdom. His terrible fate was decided and locked when the King brought him to the palace. He grew up loveless and was constantly bullied by other princes and their friends.

When the Duke's daughter, Dahlia Ermacora, suddenly proposed to him, he was puzzled at first. However, he readily accepted her proposal and married Dahlia. "You made a mistake, Dahlia. You will die in the end because I have my selfish motives," Sullivan whispered in her ear after taking the final vow. ***** "Should I listen to see if your heart beats for me?" Sullivan asked in his dangerously low voice. "Huh?" Dahlia froze, her cheeks flushing a deep crimson red. "N-no," she stammered, shaking her head. "Why not? You listened to mine without hesitation," Sullivan saidm "I won't do it again," Dahlia replied quickly. "That's unfair, Lia. You can touch me whenever you want, but I can't do the same? Seems a bit one-sided, don't you think?" he whispered now his lips moved dangerously close to hers. And then, Sullivan lowered his head, he tilted it and rested his side face over her chest, which started pounding like a drum. Sullivan's pupils enlarged, his fingers moving up slightly up to open her closed ones. Dahlia's brain froze, her body involuntarily reacted and her fingers opened slowly. Sullivan intertwined their fingers as he kept hearing the loud beats of her heart. SHE WAS INDEED IN LOVE WITH HIM. ~~~~ Follow me on Instagram: rayoflight__pcy **The Story is a pure fiction.
