The Princess and the Knight~ A grumpy x sunshine slowburn. . . . The Princess must choose her royal match before she can be named Queen, and every noble house is eager to offer a perfect one. But none of them feel right. At every dance, every suffocating parade of silk and smiles, she grows more certain of what she doesn't want. Polished men with perfumed ambition, and hands that reach for a crown before they would ever reach for her. And through it all, there is always the Knight. Kaelric Vayne. Posted to protect her, always looming in the background, like a shadow carved from stone. The court fears him in a way it fears storms, something vast and controlled, indifferent to pleading. With him, she is not a princess, not a crown. Only herself. She can not tell if that is personal, or simply duty done too well. Through it all, Princess Cassiopeia may end up finding the one person who never asked to be chosen at all. Falling, quietly and helplessly, for the one man who would never dream of asking her to choose him. After all, he is the King's most trusted knight, and she is only his duty. . . . Grumpy male lead x sunshine female lead Not a single dull chapter ;) Enjoy!

"Your parents don't know, do they?" he asked, walking around me like a cheetah cornering its prey. "What would they do if they knew their little princess was gallivanting around with two guys?" My mouth dropped open in shock, the words sticking to my tongue like molasses. Adonis's smirk grew wider, his eyes gleaming with mischief. He knew. But he didn't know everything. If anyone saw us outside, one could assume Roman was my boyfriend and Levi was a close friend. His threat was solid, but how could I give in so easily. "What are you talking about?" I blurted out, my voice shaking slightly. But the lie was a poorly stitched patch on a tattered dress. Adonis stepped closer, his breath hot on my neck as he leaned in. "Come back to me and your little secret remains as such." ➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿➿ Alina Collier never thought she would ever see the kinky side of her life ignited. She had been cautious of men since her last bad breakup, giving her almost five years of blissful solitude. But her new sexy neighbor had other plans, lighting a fire in her that she had long ago put out. Levi Grey never anticipated moving to a new city and sleeping with his neighbor hours before being invited to meet her family. Behind closed doors and out in the open, he had always been the dominant type. No woman said no to him, and Alina was no exception. Roman Porter, a man of few words and killer looks, has his eyes on both of them. Something about them intrigues him, drawing him closer to the past he so desperately wanted to leave behind. But even when things start going his way, the world seems to be against the future he wants to build. ©️ 2024 RhydianAdhaya

Not about enemies. Not about allies. And certainly not about emotions. He is the man who ends wars with a single command. The man whose silence is more terrifying than violence. Cold. Calculated. Untouchable. Love was never part of his world. Until the day a girl in white became his bride. Too soft for his ruthless empire. Too innocent for a man like him. Her eyes lower whenever he enters the room. Her voice trembles when she speaks his name. And sometimes... her eyes fill with tears. He tells himself he doesn't care. But something about those tears irritates him. Annoys him. Makes his jaw tighten and his patience disappear. Because for reasons he refuses to understand- he cannot stand seeing her cry. Not because he cares. But because she is **his**. And the ruthless mafia king doesn't like the feeling of something that belongs to him breaking. So he watches her. Too closely. Not out of love. Not out of kindness. But with a quiet, dangerous obsession even he refuses to name. Because in a world ruled by blood and power, the most dangerous thing about 𝐀𝐫𝐲𝐚𝐯 𝐑𝐚𝐢 𝐒𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚 is not his cruelty. It's the innocent bride slowly becoming his only weakness. ✦ 𝑨 𝑴𝒂𝒇𝒊𝒂 𝑹𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒄𝒆 ✦

On the night she thought she would finally get everything she had ever wished for, Celeste Devereaux lost it all. The dazzling lights of her birthday gala became the stage of her humiliation. The man she spent years loving stood before everyone and reached for another woman's hand. Her best friend smiled. The cameras flashed. And the world watched as Celeste Devereaux became a joke. Heartbroken, she left the party without knowing that death was already waiting for her. A deserted road. A car chasing from behind. Brakes that wouldn't work. A blinding light. Then darkness. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself trapped beneath the ocean, staring at her own lifeless body. She thought nobody would come. She was wrong. A man she had never seen before dove into the freezing depths and carried her broken body back to the surface as if she were the most precious thing in the world. "I'm sorry." "I came too late." Unable to leave his side, Celeste followed him and uncovered the truth she had never known. The betrayal. The conspiracy. The people who destroyed her family. The secrets hidden behind every smile. And the identity of the man who loved her in silence. By the time she learned everything, it was already too late. Or so she thought. When fate sends her back to the past, Celeste is given another chance. This time, she won't chase the wrong man. This time, she won't ignore the people who truly care for her. And this time... She'll choose the man who crossed an ocean to find her. The man who avenged her. The man who loved her. Even after death. Because in her first life, she chose the man who destroyed her. In this life... She chooses him.

Prologue She was unconscious for four days. No one from her family came to see her. Her heart broke. She was in the hospital, yet no one cared enough to visit. Even after everything that had happened to her, she remained alone. As she walked slowly through the hospital corridor, her legs weak and her body aching, she saw them-her family. They stood there, talking in hushed voices. Relief and pain twisted inside her as she limped toward them. Then, without warning, a sharp slap struck her cheek. She stood frozen, numb not from the impact but from the words that followed. "Are you at peace finally? She has been raped because of you. Look at her condition, she is dying." A broken smile formed on her lips. Anyone could see her own ruined state-anyone but them. Once again, they had played their game. Once again, she was the one proven guilty. She wanted to scream, to tell them the truth. "It wasn't her who was raped. It was ME." But no words came out. Only silence.

Lia Valencia was supposed to be just another student. Quiet. Invisible. Forgettable. Until Adrian Monteverde noticed her. Cold billionaire. Guest professor. Dangerous man.

He never lets it go.

Her husband left her on the road. A truck finished the job. She woke up with nothing - no name, no memory, no baby she never knew she was carrying. And the man sitting at her bedside? A complete stranger. But sometimes strangers see you clearer than the people who were supposed to love you.
