"Meant to blend into the background, I act as a vase overflowing with stunning flowers; meant to sit and look pretty until my job is done. I am a servant, and I am unseen.
But somehow someone managed to see me."
⊰♚⊱
It is the year of 2042, and absolute monarchy has become the norm throughout the world.
While most kings are obsessed with power, Richard Salvador, the king of Alcott, prefers beauty. The rich can afford to be "beautiful," and therefore live in comfort. The poor are looked down on, and often perform the laborious work in the kingdom. But then there's that in-between area: the poor with natural beauty. They are chosen to serve in the palace, for King Richard loves to be surrounded by beauty.
Maud Lacouture, a stunning young girl, is in that in-between area. She was taken from her home at thirteen, chosen to serve the royal family as the queen's maid.
Now, at seventeen, Maud is starting to realize that something odd is going on inside the palace walls, and she has taken a dangerous interest to the mysterious Prince Luke who supposedly killed his older brother to become next in line to rule. Better yet, Maud has to team up with this prince in order to solve a murder case.
Meanwhile, the people, fueled by rage and longing, are ready to fight against the government. The carefully manicured beauty is crumbling, and the king is furious. Will the kingdom ever return to fairness and prosperity? And could the murderer be right under Maud's nose?

The Shadowed Queen
In a kingdom where beauty and power dictate worth, Princess Evelyne has always been the forgotten one. Overshadowed by her radiant sisters, dismissed by her own family, and treated as nothing more than an afterthought, she has learned to live in the shadows-silent, invisible, and aching for something more. But when the feared and ruthless Dark King arrives to choose a bride, no one expects him to spare Evelyne a second glance. He is a man of legend-shrouded in mystery, draped in power, and said to have a heart as cold as the night itself. The court watches, breathless, as he surveys the dazzling princesses before him. And then, he chooses her. Whispers ripple through the halls. Shock turns to outrage. Why would the Dark King-a man who could have anyone-claim the overlooked, unwanted daughter? But as Evelyne is whisked away to his shadowed kingdom, she begins to uncover the truth. The Dark King sees what no one else ever has-her strength, her resilience, the fire beneath the quiet. And in his arms, beneath the weight of his intense gaze, Evelyne is no longer invisible. She is his. But as darkness looms and enemies gather, Evelyne must decide-will she forever remain the forgotten princess, or will she rise as the Dark Queen, feared and revered beside the man who saw her worth when no one else did?

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Concluída
