The politics in Antis were known all over the world for being founded on dramatics and flair. Newscasters from different countries delivered daily reports as the world watched in anticipation as the Great Four families pulled strings, tore down reputations, and even included international political figures in order to ensure that their Champion would become the next Regus. To the world, it was almost like a cleverly staged reality TV show, but the repercussions of the wrong Champion winning would threaten the balance that Antis had long sought to create.
Edith Arias was a woman that grew up loved, respected, and instructed to do whatever it took to ensure 'the end goal'. Her father had been the prime example of clawing your way to the top when he launched his own business in Antis, and Edith planned to do exactly that.
However, the chance of grabbing the Regus throne and securing the country's stability all lay in her ability to win the heart of strongest Champion: Benedict Malucci.
An easy enough feat, she was sure.
Edith would be more than just a pawn; she would be a Queen.
*** This story is a completely rewritten version of my first published story: The Crown Formality. However, nearly everything in the story has changed as I have developed myself as a writer and hope to give my first characters the recognition and character development that they deserve.

Mrs. Oberoi's
"The only people who can change the Mr. Oberois are their wives-the Mrs. Oberois." The Oberois are rich, powerful, and famous. Their business empire is admired across the world. To society, the Oberoi family appears dignified, cultured, and deeply respectable. But behind closed doors, reality is far different. The men of the Oberoi family are ruled by ego and arrogance. Power matters more than people, and emotions are seen as weakness. They don't believe in changing themselves-and this mindset is passed down to their sons. Since the women of the household never challenge this behavior, it becomes tradition rather than a flaw. The new heirs of the Oberoi legacy are no different. There are four heirs-each with a distinct personality-but one trait binds them together: ruthlessness. Image and business come first, just like their fathers. They care little about emotions, consequences, or the hearts they trample on their way to success. But everything begins to change when four new girls enter the Oberoi mansion. These women are nothing like the previous Mrs. Oberois. The four wives are different in nature, strength, and perspective-but they share one powerful quality: a soft heart with unbreakable courage. They feel deeply, love fiercely, and refuse to stay silent. Where others accepted cruelty, they question it. Where others endured, they stand their ground. Everyone carries their own scars, secrets, and stories. And when these four women step into the lives of the four ruthless heirs, destiny takes an unexpected turn.Complete![THE CHILD OF THE PROPHECY [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/260314095-256-k406015.jpg)
