Rebirth of the Forsaken Empress - Synopsis Betrayed and left for dead, an elite assassin awakens in the frail body of Empress Selene Valeria-reviled, abandoned, and imprisoned in the Cold Palace. Once discarded by the emperor and falsely accused of poisoning a favored concubine, Selene wasted away in despair. But this is no longer her story. Determined to rewrite fate, the assassin refuses to beg for love or power. Instead, she vows to reclaim her dignity, outmaneuver the treacherous court, and most of all-protect the one person the former empress abandoned: her son, Crown Prince Caius. With sharp wit and deadly skill, she will show the empire that she is no longer a helpless pawn but a ruler in her own right. And if anyone dares to stand in her way, they will learn-too late-that this empress was once an assassin who never failed a mission.

As an avid- and fairly unsuccessful- writer of fantasy fiction, I know that dragons are pretty much the pinnacle of existence. I dare anyone to argue. So, when my mundane existence comes to an end and I am offered a choice of whatever race I liked upon reincarnating into a fantasy world, of course I chose dragon. Little did I know that my life as a dragon would take more than its fair share of twists and turns. But hey, I was a dragon... Everyone knows you don't mess with dragons. This is the next one to be added up on Royal Road in a couple days, once Broken's current chapters are done being added :)
