Lilia Amaryllis has it all.
She's gorgeous, a princess and loved by her family - Yet she is loathed by the common folks.
"She's spoiled," they say.
"She's a snake," they whisper when they see her walking around in town.
„I heard She bullies her two sisters, even though she is just an adopted princess"
Lilia Amaryllis has everything... and yet she has nothing at all.
Behind the pretty facade, she is bullied by her step-sisters and servants, ignored by her foster parents - only a princess in-name. Suffering a life worse than death, each and every day she has to suffer little and big cruelties, with her only salvation being her aunt - the prime ministress-to-be, who helps her to overcome all the obstacles, until one day, on the eve of her 16th birthday, her chance at an escape out of the castle, presents itself on a silver plate.
Set in a world where magic is integrated into everyday life, follow the story of Lilia Amaryllis on her journey of revenge, friendship, magic, academy life and maybe even ... love?

In the kingdom of Elfhame, where shadows whisper secrets and power is a deadly game, Lilia has always stood out for one thing: she is human. Raised among the Folk, she learned early that strength is not just a matter of swords and poison, but also of will and words. She seeks neither glory nor revenge, but just a place where she can exist without having to fight for every breath.
Beside her is Jude, her dearest friend, who always seems one step ahead in understanding the ruthless rules of the fairy court. But Jude has her secrets, like the way his gaze lingers too long on Nicasia, the proud princess of the sea.
And then there is Cardan, a prince with an indolent air and a poisonous smile. He is everything Lilia despises: effortlessly cruel, frivolous by nature, and, above all, a problem she does not want to face. And yet, by a twist of fate, their paths continue to intertwine.
Lilia knows that challenging the faeries is dangerous. But challenging Cardan? That could be an even bigger mistake.
