Royal Scandal by storiesbyaprincess

One night. One mistake. One heir to the throne. Alina Evercrest is the youngest and only daughter of a noble house-kind, sharp-eyed, and devoted to a life far from royal intrigue. But after her coming-of-age celebration at the palace ends with her waking in the Crown Prince's bed, everything changes. Especially when whispers start, and her monthly cycle doesn't come. Prince Caelum is feared across the realm-lethal in war, ruthless in court, and entirely untouchable. He never intended to be tied down, especially not to the soft-hearted noble girl who's too clever for her own good. But the night they shared wasn't a scandal. It was fate. As tensions rise and enemies circle, Alina is thrust into the heart of royal power, where secrets burn and trust is rare. But she's not just surviving-she's outsmarting, outshining, and unshakably loyal to the man the world calls a monster... yet who worships her in the quiet. When love deepens, so does the danger. Because in a world built on bloodlines, politics, and power, nothing is safe-not even the child they never meant to create. He would kill for her. She would fight kingdoms for him. Together, they'll burn the old world to build their own.

The Duchesses by silviaaaclaira

Aurora opens her eyes only to feel the agonising pain in her body. That is to be expected when there has been an accident. It's excruciatingly painful. Aurora groans in pain and pulls off the blanket, taking in her surroundings. It is more appropriate for a hospital interior design to look to the mediaeval era. Not shabby, but more on the extravagant side. The nurses' attire, on the other hand, appears odd. Someone said out of nowhere, "Her Grace, please wake up! Call the doctor right away!" Aurora approaches the mirror and looks at the woman with deep red eyes in it. The woman had blonde hair that, while a little messy, flowed perfectly over her shoulder. Her fair complexion lends her an ethereal appearance. Not to mention that her outfits make her look like a noblewoman from a historical series. She pinches herself, only to realise that the blonde woman staring at her is herself. A thought struck her mind, as she utters her first statement in this world, "Fuck me". Medea has finished her work, but she is still unsure how to fix all of the messes. She hasn't been herself in a long time, and it's bothering her. The throne seems so far away, and the weight of the burden grows heavier with each passing day. A letter from the Imperial Palace has arrived, instructing the Duchess to look after the House of Smith's Duchess of Light, Natalie Wilson Smith. As an evil scheme was about to unfold, she smiled wickedly. 'This is my new card.' p/s: I can't find the original owner of the photo of the cover, if you know or you are the owner of the cover.

The Firebound Heart...By Mehek. by Mehek_X_Arabella

They were supposed to shake hands-not make out in the royal gardens. Crown Prince Mason is stubborn and arrogant. So is Princess Elira. Their mothers call it a "perfect match." Obviously, chaos ensues. The palace has a way of turning hearts into something else entirely... Cue royal drama, stolen glances, and way too many "accidental" touches. He'd burn the world for her. She might just let him. A slow-burn royal romance dripping with heat, heart, and the kind of love that could ruin crowns.

Princess Aria of Evermere has everything a royal girl is supposed to want: gowns of silk, tea with nobility, and a life of order within the palace walls. But Aria has never cared much for "supposed to." Trapped by duty, grief, and a father who treats her like a pawn, Aria dreams of a life beyond the marble halls-one that doesn't involve arranged courtships, kingdom politics, or her every move being reported by royal guards. When a childhood friend returns with a charming smile and mischief in his eyes, and a stern, disciplined royal guard is assigned to her side, Aria finds herself caught between comfort and challenge, safety and longing. But love is dangerous in a world where alliances are everything-and even affection can be used as leverage. As tensions rise in the kingdom and a suitor she despises is invited into her life, Aria must choose: obey the role she was born into, or risk everything for a future she craves for herself. A slow-burn fantasy romance filled with political intrigue, stolen moments, and a heroine who refuses to be tamed.
