For 18 year old Tara, the desert had never been kind. It was a cruel master-one that took more than it ever gave, leaving behind stories etched in sand: tales of survival. Tara was one of those stories. Abandoned by fate. Forgotten by the world. Forgotten by *him*-the man she had loved with every thread of her being, for whom she would have become anything. He throwed her aside as if she had never belonged to him at all, as if her love had been nothing but dust in the wind. But that was two and a half years ago. Now, she had changed-and so had her heart. She wasn't that girl anymore. Or so she thought. Because he wasn't finished with her. And neither was the desert. •••••••• This story is intended for mature audiences. If you're uncomfortable with erotica or themes involving forced relationships, I recommend skipping this book.

Note: It's highly recommended to read Book 1, "Ruined by Royalty," before diving into this story because this is the second book and continuation. Title: Ruined by Royalty: Obsession Reborn Five years. Five long, torturous years of madness, of searching, of shattered sanity. Two princes-twisted by grief, consumed by obsession-have hunted shadows, whispered her name into the wind, lost themselves entirely in the memory of a queen they thought they'd lost forever. But Liyana... she's alive. And when destiny drags them back to her, nothing will ever be the same. A skip of time. A river. An old orange saree clinging to her figure, the sunlight glinting off the rippling water as she bends to wash clothes. A soft noise-an interruption-and she turns. Five years freeze in a heartbeat. Their eyes burn. Their breaths catch. "Liyana..." they whisper, barely audible, broken, haunted. She tilts her head, her gaze sharp yet innocent. And with a single, piercing question, she shatters the air between them: "Do I know you, sir?" Desire. Madness. Obsession. Revenge. Love. Everything they've ever wanted... and feared.

Ruined by Royalty Two princes. One girl. And a throne stained with lust, power, and obsession. Liyana was never meant to be seen. A palace maid with no name, no voice, and no right to dream.

Zuhair: the smooth-talking charmer who tastes like danger and whispers like sin. They rule the palace. They own the night. And somehow... they want her. She tries to run. They corner her. She tries to hide. They crave her. She says no. They don't listen. Trapped between obsession and royalty, Liyana must survive the heat, the hunger, and the twisted game only princes know how to play. She thought monsters wore crowns. She didn't know they'd kiss like gods. This isn't love. This is war. And Liyana is the battlefield. 18+

When an Imperial Decree demands that every noble household send their eligible daughters to the palace for the Xuancai (Imperial Selection), the Nangong Marquisate faces a dilemma. To protect their favored daughter from the risks of the inner court, they send Ning Xiang-the ignored, illegitimate daughter born of a lowly maid-alongside her legitimate sister, Nangong Bi. Bi is arrogant, haughty, and convinced she is destined to be the next Empress. Ning Xiang, however, enters the palace with only one goal: to survive long enough to eventually earn her freedom and find her mother. The young Emperor Li Zhao is a man of sharp intellect and deep isolation. Haunted by the fact that he has no heirs, he is surrounded by women who view his lap only as a stepping stone for their families. At the center of the web is Empress Xiao, a woman whose elegance masks a ruthless, calculating mind. She maintains her power by ensuring no consort stays in favor long enough to threaten her position. Beside her are the "Four Consorts," each more insidious than the last, turning the harem into a battlefield where a single wrong word can lead to execution. From the cold chambers of a Cairen to the silk-lined halls of the Huang Guifei (Imperial Noble Consort), Ning Xiang transforms. She sheds her innocence, learning that in the Daming Palace, one must either be the predator or the prey. As she stands one step away from the Empress's throne, she must decide if the power she has gained is worth the soul she has traded for it-and whether she can finally protect the empire from the schemes that threaten to burn it down. "In this garden of peonies, only the one with the sharpest thorns survives the winter."

In a palace where silence is safer than truth, Li Anya learns that death is not the end-it is a warning. Once a forgotten concubine, she lived her first life in quiet obedience, enduring the Emperor's cold cruelty and the Empress Dowager's disdain. Her existence was small, her voice unheard... until the night she was killed. No witnesses. No answers. Only betrayal lingering like poison in her final breath. But fate, it seems, is not finished with her. When Li Anya opens her eyes again, she is back in the same gilded cage, standing at the beginning of a life she has already lost. This time, she remembers the pain, the fear-and the certainty that someone close to the throne wanted her dead. Determined to survive, she treads carefully through a court of hidden daggers and smiling enemies. Yet everything begins to change when she discovers she is carrying the Emperor's child... and with it, a power she never held before. Favored by the very people who once despised her, Li Anya rises from shadow to prominence-but in the palace, kindness is often the most dangerous lie of all. Because somewhere behind silk curtains and whispered prayers, her killer is still waiting. And this time, Li Anya is no longer willing to die quietly.
