In the kingdom of Allenia, it is a law that royals marry royals, and peasants marry peasants. The kingdom has been that way for thousands of years; that is, until Caspian met Farah.
Caspian, the future King of Allenia, has always obeyed the rules, to a certain level. He's the only child of the royal family, and therefore, will be the one to take the crown. He's had everything he's ever wanted his whole life. If Caspian wanted a horse, he got a horse. If he wanted a new suit, he got a new suit. If he wanted a girl, he got that girl. Although Caspian was always told 'yes', he was and is amazingly humble and selfless; always putting his kingdom first. But what will happen when Caspian befriends Farah? Will things change?
Farah has always been a wonderful, outgoing and kind girl. She doesn't exactly live the best life, but still finds a way to enjoy her day. When she finds Caspian, a rich young man who will soon rule the whole kingdom, she immediately realizes he doesn't favor every moment that's given graciously to him by the fates. She decides to help him out, by always trying to brighten his day and become a good and loyal friend to him. But what if he begins to feel more? She knows her place, but will he put that into consideration when he realizes for his whole life she's been the one by his side; helping him through the tough life of royalty?
Read on, to find out what happens between the royal family and the lower classes as two worlds that were never meant to cross begin to collide, and seem to go hand in hand.

Catalina Azura's life ended in misery. For 3 decades a war has ensued between Elimina and Azura, and in it, Catalina was only a pawn. Sent to the Elminian kingdom to be wed to the Crown prince, Caspian Atticus Elmina III, by her Step Brother the King; she is sent into a den of wolves. She is timid, but there is one thing that Catalina has, powers, ones that have been thought lost to time. She cannot be discovered, as witches have long been feared and more importantly, slaughtered. In Elmina, Catalina treated as a slave, being abused by her own ladies in waiting. She's completely abandoned, with no one from Azura to help her, and Caspian? He has long lost interest in his frail wife. Unable to stop the war, she sees her husband carry her friend's heads on pikes from battle, another desperate reminder she is helpless. Eventually, Catalina is sent to death, on charges of witchcraft, by Caspian, all so his concubine can become queen. As the executioner sharpens his scythe, he asks Catalina for her last words, she only cries, pleading her innocence. She prays for a last chance, for whatever gods there are to show her mercy. What happens when Catalina wakes up back in Azura, where her step-brother instructs her that she will be sent to Elmina to be wed to Caspian? She has traveled 7 years back in time. Catalina vows to have her revenge on those who hurt her, starting with Caspian who killed her, and ending with the King of Azura who sent her to this bloody hell in the first place. She will rule Azura and Elmina, as queen, and she will get her revenge. The only way to do that? Be more dangerous than the danger. ----------------- "I assume you've never been told no?" I ask, batting my lashes and placing my hands on Caspian's chest. He smirks "Not ever." "Well then Your Highness, let me be the first" I smile "No Caspian.

I'm not really what someone would call a true princess. I'm not into those frilly pink dresses and waiting for a knight or prince to save her. I'm the kind of princess to save that so-called prince charming. It probably didn't help that I grew up knowing that what normal girls were told, were lies. ------ "I know, but that doesn't mean that Caspian couldn't find a way around it. You know how they are in Jahat." "What does that mean? I always thought that we were fair?" The voice that I hate the most spoke from next to me. "Caspian, I swear to the broken depths of Jahat, I will kill you if you bought those humans here," I treated him. We may have known each other since we were kids, but that doesn't mean that I like him.Complete
