Being the only heiress of the kingdom of Perlona makes Adiana's life even harder for her. She is expected, vastly, to be the next ruler; a queen that is both feared and looked up by the people of Perlona.
However, she isn't the perfect princess everyone assumes her to be. She isn't the princess with a brave and stone-cold heart like everyone thinks her to be, or someone with a deep-rooting determination to get to the throne and have the crown like everybody else.
In fact, she is far from that.
She's had enough of people wanting the power that the crown brings, of everyone trying to act like they sincerely want to befriend her, like they sincerely love her for being her. They never do. They only professed to love her because she's the closest thing to the crown; because it's an opportunity to get to its power.
All Adiana wanted in her nineteen years of being someone who had been pushed by high expectations with, in such a young age, was to feel the warmth of genuine care any parent would give their child. She only want for her parents to look her in the eye and tell her sincerely, how much they truly and deeply love their daughter.
All she ever wanted was for someone- anyone really, to show her that she is worthy of love.
But as the coronation for a new ruler is nearing its day, Adiana soon discovers the heinous truth of the crown, and becomes aware of the responsibility to start claiming what rightfully belongs to her.

I am the Queen of the Dark
This world is huge and beautiful. Yet, it also has so many mystery in it. Still, I hate this world. For me, it's just a full pile of trash. Thousands of fake words exist in this world. Not just this world, but also the other worlds. Including mine. Oh what a piece of trash. So many hypocrites exist in this unpredictable huge galaxy. Like those people who supported you, then stabbed you from the back. Those who smiled this second, then spit out their bad words towards you in the next second. Those who were with you this minute, then dumped you like you're nothing, until your distance with them was like the Earth and the Moon, in the next minute. Those who protected you this hour, then tried to destroy you in the next hour. So...trash. What is family? They're nothing but the annoying people whom always tied me up to follow whatever they said. It's like I'm their pet, instead of their daughter who wished to be free. What is friend? They're no more than those who used you, then dumped you when you're no longer needed in this world. It's all Hell. Hell I say. I don't need family! Nor friends! Or even love, or anything in this awful place. I just wanted to be alone. Alone and free. Yes, your eyes were not wrong! I'm so sick, that I wanted to be all by myself for the rest of my life. Yet, why...is it so painful..to see them go? ***** She is pretty.

And when she started to stand on her own feet, she could never say the word 'Mom' and 'Dad' anymore. Born in the darkness, she came to destroy the peaceful Earth, along with all the living beings in it. But as time passed, as she met new people, it all began to change.Complete
