*Sequel to The Lady Knight*

As the heiress presumptive of Monrique's largest duchy and a Lady Justice in training, Lady Therese De Beauharnais of Roche has her hands full with her duties, studies, and of course - fending off all her suitors who seem to be only after her money and her body. However, as her father, the Duke of Roche, inches towards his death, and it becomes increasingly likely that she would succeed him without a husband by her side, she faces trouble from someone who does not want a woman to govern Roche in her own right. 

One of the Monriquan Armed Forces' best archers, Lady Katherine Harrington of Johanne is at the lowest point in her life. Desperate for a diversion, she is quick to accept a foreign Emperor's invitation to teach archery at his newly founded women's military academy. However, someone who does not want the initiative to succeed is determined to cause harm to the Emperor, and the students of the academy.

Both women are no strangers to injustice. As they struggle with their circumstances, only one question remains on their mind - do truth and justice always prevail in the end?

26 parts Complete
The Warrior Princess Princess Fauna of Scotland, last daughter of the king and queen of Scotland. Her only wish is to become a warrior like her brothers and sister but her parents are not willing to hear anything that concerns that, all they care about is her future as a princess, so she does what no normal child or even a normal princess would think of doing. She takes her future into her hands, disguised; she goes into the warrior camp without the knowledge of the king and queen. Dresses, tiaras, high heeled shoes, that's all for a princess, and oh, I forgot, being perfect also. I am not like the rest princesses who fancy royal parties and late afternoon tea, I admit I'm not a perfect princess, but I'm okay. I prefer archery, martial arts, sword fighting, horse-riding, things extremely different from what a princess should do and what a princess should like. I hate parties, I'm not weird, it's just my kind of person. Warriors Academy would have been the right place for me along with my siblings but those are my thoughts and they are not supposed to be heard, so I keep on wondering what my life would turn out to be. (Disclamier: No picture in this book belongs to me. Shoutout to the actual owners.) As at 6th of May, #1 in Bravery #9 in Archery #7 in Majesty
