betrayal champion dark extreme fantasy internal king knight manipulation medieval perception

Being a king wouldn't be all that hard, right?

After taking the crown by force, the Champion undertakes the kingly role. Still, he has one goal in mind, yet he remains blind to what's around him. Unrest builds within the kingdom he dreams of leading to victory and improving beyond what a normal man could even hope for. All the while, a war's brewing and coming right to the kingdom that is in no shape for such an onslaught.

As the commander he was trained to be, as the relentless killing machine known for massacring the orcs, the Champion has rarely changed. The title of king did little to waver his very straightforward mindset. But without Shimmer--his sole purpose for guiding the humans by their hand--without any company, he succumbs to the horrors of isolation. 

A hero has somebody to fight for, a motivation. How could the Champion be one, then, if he doesn't have anybody but himself?

Shadows Reborn (2nd Book) by Seralto

Two years passed. Two years since their utter destruction. Since Ayleth's kidnapping. Since the death of their guild. Vengeance stung their souls, and the Shadowy Death's will made the young Shadow Champion whole, casting a powerful spell upon Althalos Fendrelsson. But like everything else, the price of vengeance is costly. Will they be willing to pay it? Whatever price is demanded? To say nothing of the demon lord's own commands to the young Shadow Champion. The shadows have arisen, and now they prowl for the taste of blood, of chaos. The Disciples of Dawn, though, will have more to say about such things. "Walk always with the father's radiance, or be purged otherwise!" Can Althalos Fendrelsson weather the trials set before him? Can he finish the tasks commanded by his only god, Merec himself? Or is he destined to fall? To fall back to the Void that created him in the first place? Doomed to everlasting torment and failure?

Of Blood and Duty by WhiteGoldFangs

Wattpad Exclusive! Nearly beaten to death, a man wakes up in a place he does not know. Neither can he remember how he even ended up there. Waking up in the middle of a road he discovers a world of pain only to drift off into unconsciousness again. His body having been crushed and broken beyond his wildest dreams. Falling out of consciousness from the pain, he later wakes up in a bed. A new place he does not know, but being looked after by someone. A woman. Why was he in the care of this beautiful but strange person? How had he ended up in her care? Why had she taken him in and why was she and everyone else so guarded around him? Determined to make his way back home, wherever that may be, the man soon realizes that things are not as easy as he first had thought. Learning to fit in with the people who took him in at the brink of death, he learns that a war is raging between two kingdoms, and which one he belongs to, he cannot remember... if he belongs with to any of them. All he has to remind him of his life before is a sword with a crest of two lions on its pommel... and a woman named Jade who screams for him in his sleep. This is a spin off of The Prince's Choice and Hunted Queen. I recommend reading those two before this one to get the best experience possible!

Bloody Crown [COMPLETED] by __urbabygirl__

She was born a wolf in a world that wanted her tamed. Seraphina Ravenshade never asked for silk gowns or gilded palaces, her place has always been the training yard, blade in hand, unflinching before men twice her size. But when the Crown summons her family to the capital, she finds herself forced into a deadly game of politics, power, and temptation. The Crown Prince, Kael, is as dangerous as he is mesmerizing, his golden eyes see too much, his touch burns too deep, and his intentions blur the line between protection and possession. But the shadows whisper another name. Silais, a man with silver hair, a past soaked in blood, and a vow that ties Seraphina to secrets the royal family would kill to bury. Between a prince who cages her with fire and a phantom who claims her in darkness, Seraphina must decide where her loyalty, and her heart truly lies. And in Aurelius, love is just another battlefield. --- 🩸A dark fantasy romance where love is dangerous, power is bloody, and every choice can destroy a kingdom. Read now. But beware, no one escapes unscathed. Hello there! This is my first attempt at writing something, so please bear with me-I'm a bit sloppy when it comes to endings. You might find this story familiar if you're a fan of manhwa. That's no coincidence! This story is inspired by a dream I had after reading a typical romance manhwa (though I can't quite remember which one). All the double gaps means some time delay or skip. I hope you enjoy this little slice of my imagination! 💭✨ This was a one shot in one of my old account (which is not working unfortunately)

𝐊𝐈𝐒𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐑 by nocturnalsilk

"Afraid of me? Why are you so afraid, princess?" He placed his hand on the wall next to her head, effectively trapping her between his body and the cold stone. "I'm not afraid of you," she lied, her voice steady despite the tremble in her hands. "I'm not afraid of anything." He chuckled darkly. "You should be." His lips barely brushed against hers in a tantalizingly soft touch. She was frozen in the spot, her mind a chaos of escape thoughts, but her body refusing to carry her away. It was like he took advantage of her daze, closing the remaining gap and crushing his lips against hers. _________________ In a corrupted world full of superficial and greedy people, in a world driven by lust and desire, Regan's thoughts and actions are alien to most. She feels like an outsider amidst a blur of faces that mirror the very disdain she holds for society. But she's not naive. And what will happen when she's thrust into the heart of the very system she despises, into the claws of a terrifying, demonic beast who happens to not want just her body, but her soul?

The Cursed Throne [Under Revision] by ShadowedRunes

Bound by chains, haunted by a curse, and trapped in a palace of shadows. When a tyrant king claims that she is the reincarnation of his treacherous queen, Elara is torn from her life of anonymity and thrust into a world of power, manipulation, and danger. The king demands her loyalty, but his motives are as dark as the curse that plagues his throne. In the gilded halls of the cursed palace, she discovers secrets that could shatter the fragile line between love and hate. As their deadly game of power escalates, she must decide: Will she destroy the king to save herself, or surrender to the darkness that binds them both? The throne demands blood. The curse demands sacrifice. And her heart may demand something far worse. Trigger Warning: This story contains themes of emotional manipulation, toxic relationships, dark romance dynamics, and morally gray characters. Reader discretion is advised. DISCLAIMER: I know the names change around chapter 15 or so, I don't know what was going on in my head. I'll revise it as soon as possible. Just picture Liora and read Elara instead. I'm really sorry!

The Villain? No, That's Not Me. by KhAri0350

In a world where reality itself bends to the will of a lazy god, one boy moves in the shadows.. not for conquest, not for revenge, but for something far greater... personal pleasure. With the ability to manipulate, create, and control others with an unbreakable grip disguised as free will, our nameless protagonist has no grand ambitions. No desire for war. No thirst for destruction. All he wants... is an obedient, devoted harem in a world where chaos reigns. And yet, despite his best efforts to lay low, he's drawn the attention of Duke K'lone, the legendary Sword Saint, after effortlessly bending the duke's pride and joy, the Sword Princess Veronica, to his will, without her even realizing it. Now, the entire kingdom is on edge. Who is this mysterious boy? How did he defeat the princess without lifting a finger? And most importantly, why does he seem completely uninterested in power? As knights, nobles, and adventurers scramble to uncover his identity, he continues his game of control, deception, and absolute obedience. Because in his mind, he's not the villain. ...But the rest of the world isn't so sure. "I'm not trying to take over the world. I just want to enjoy my life." "Then why does everyone you meet end up completely devoted to you?" "...Coincidence?"

Feared Crimson King by MsDarkerdays

I flinched as his hand reached to my face, and aggressively pulled down the cloak from my head. His eyes scanned me, taking in my tear-stained face, my jewelry, the hem of my dress. Then he spoke, voice cold and measured. "What is your name?" I opened my mouth, but no words came. Fear tightened its grip. "I believe I asked you a question," he said, eyes darkening further. "Alice," I choked out between tears and ragged breaths of panic. His cold eyes stayed on my face a moment longer before he finally released my cloak from his grip. His gaze drifted to the window. "You will address me as Your Highness. I do not tolerate mistakes. I will not shy away from punishment, and if I have too, I will make sure you learn to never defy my order again. Do I make myself clear?" -------------------- In this world, everybody has a soulmate-two people destined to be together for the rest of their lives. Finding them isn't as hard as you might think, since every pair who belong together share the same symbol somewhere on their body. It is something you're born with, something unshakable, something meant to be. No matter the status or wealth, there is no doubt: soulmates belong together. Some grow up knowing their future soulmate, others find them later in life-but in the end, they always find each other. In my family's kingdom of Lyria, marrying someone who isn't your soulmate is a punishable crime. My father always believed in the bond. But what if the bond isn't meant to be after all... Or could it be that my soulmate is none other than Darkness himself-the heartless king our country is currently at war with, the one who leaves neither women nor children alive... ----- Rewritten version 2025 CAUTION This book contains violence and gore along with cursing. Also if you're triggered by domestic violence DONT READ THIS BOOK. Take care.
