A Single Rose: Part 1 by Istar1144
50 parts Complete
In a kingdom where duty outweighs desire, alliances are forged in marriage, and power is a game played in shadows, the noble houses of Harvanser and Kon weave an intricate web of ambition, betrayal, and legacy. At the heart of this tale stands Isabel Harvanser, the cast-aside daughter of King Louis Brail. Once the cherished heir to the throne, she is now stripped of her title and future, Isabel harbors a single, burning vow-to reclaim what was stolen from her. But as she navigates the treacherous politics of nobility, she begins to realize that power is not simply given-it must be taken. Alongside Isabel's story is the story of her family. Her maternals figures, once radiant and ambitious young noblewomen attempt to play the courtly game with ease. Their paths are destined to end, and their fates tangled in a battle of wits, will, and whispered alliances. As noble daughters are bartered for power and kings secure their legacies through blood and marriage, Isabel must decide who she will become-a pawn in the hands of those who rule or a queen in her own right. A Single Rose is a gripping tale of ambition, family, and the cost of power. For in a world where crowns are won through cunning defeats, and love is a luxury few can afford, only the ruthless will rise. Will Isabel carve her own destiny, or will she be buried beneath the weight of duty and betrayal? One thing is certain-she will not go quietly. Notes: The title of Lord Baron is given to those who rules a region of land in the ruler of the country's name. So the king is the ruler of the entire country, and a lord Baron is the ruler of a designated region within that country.

A servant's daughter befriends the prince and finds an unlikely friendship. One that would be greatly scrutinized. Pushed and pulled, the prince has to choose the future of the kingdom he is being raised to rule? One that has its place for servants, and those of the upper class. But two shall never mix. Or follow his heart? That tells him he sees more in her than just a servant? As they grow up, the once innocent hearts that believed all were equal, quickly learn that there is a rift between servant and prince. And to cross onto the other side would mean losing everything. Will love and friendship be enough to surrender everything?
