When Princess Amelia returns to her father's kingdom after nearly a decade in an all-girls Catholic school, she knows what awaits her-duty, politics, and the weight of the crown she was born to wear. What she does not expect is Queen Lilith. Beautiful, unyielding, and impossibly commanding, the queen-her father's second wife-is tasked with shaping Amelia into the ruler she must become. Under her sharp gaze and relentless discipline, Amelia learns that royalty is not a privilege but a burden, one that demands sacrifice, control, and absolute obedience. But obedience has never been her strength. Lilith is more than a ruler-she is a force. And Amelia, despite every warning, is drawn to her like a moth to the flame. Every order, every punishment, every lingering glance becomes a dangerous thrill. Until the night she stumbles upon a secret that could destroy them both. In a kingdom where magic is outlawed and power is a dangerous game, Amelia's greatest threat isn't the court or the king. It's the woman she should fear-but cannot resist. Now, she must make a choice: become the queen the world expects-or risk everything for the one she was never meant to want.

'Well, that kind of normal for us werewolves. We normally find our mates at sixteen and have pups at nineteen at the latest. I think it is normal because we know that with our mates, it is for life, everything is.' "How old are you again?" I felt like he had told me before but it didn't really hit me until then, he could be sixteen for all I know. Based off what he is telling me finding his mate is a sixteen-year-old thing. 'Twenty-five.' I couldn't help but gasp. He was almost ten years too late. "Oh wow, late bloomer huh." I joked though it made me reminisce on how I was holed up for almost all of my life, and almost the second I left camp, I met him. It was kind of amazing to think about actually. 'Well, it's not all my fault, it took you forever to show up.' He teased. 'But I would wait for you all over again if I had too.' -- Currently 45,743 words
