I'M NOT THE MONSTER YOU SHOULD FEAR.
A world of bloodshed is all Yazia has known despite never having struck a blade to one's heart-that is until everything changes when an attack lures her into a spiral of revenge for her parent's death.
With nothing but the throne of Sankori left to her name, a new war threatening the crown is on the rise. Wishing for no more death of her kind, Yazia has pledged to keep the last of her people alive, no matter the cost.
Her plan is simple: infiltrate the rivalling kingdom, and usurp the King of Abingor. But what happens when who you thought was your enemy isn't your enemy at all?
Only her ability with a blade can protect her through the dangerous politics of her foe. But amidst the schemes to finish everything Yazia has stood up for, it is not too late before she realizes she is merely a pawn in the game. Yazia uncovers something far more sinister than a powerful monarch; something even the most feared are afraid of.
An assassin. A traitor. A prisoner. Her mission has unexpectedly changed-she will bring the looming war back home.

A crown of Secrets and Fire
I grew up safe, protected, adored, certain of the life that awaited me. A grand estate, a devoted father... a wedding to the perfect man. But the altar crumbled beneath me, my world ripped apart in a heartbeat. The silk turned to ruin, vows to ash, and in one heartbeat, everything I knew was gone. I find myself trapped in a fortress in the mountains, under the gaze of a man whose heart did not hesitate to shatter mine years ago.... Whose hands promise protection... and claim. He doesn't ask for my trust, he takes it, drags me into a world of lies, bold betrayals, and secrets I wasn't prepared to see. And the truth? I can't tell if he's my salvation... or the most delicious kind of trap I've ever known. I am Genevieve. My life was safe, my choices clear. But now, nothing is as it seems. And the man in the shadows... he is the storm I can't outrun. ⚠️ Content Disclaimer ⚠️ This work contains mature themes and potentially triggering content, including but not limited to: violence, death, emotional abuse, manipulation, trauma, sexual tension, and morally complex relationships.

Broken Crowns
This is a draft. It's not complete and currently writing. I'll be editing and changing things as I go but will post revised when I change or update things. ****** In Extrovia, every crown is built on blood. Princess Dahlia Loth was born to play the role of the merciful heir: silk-clad, silent, and obedient. But behind palace walls, she is her father's favorite victim-punished for kindness, scarred for defiance, and promised to a man she despises. Her mother can heal wounds, but not break chains. Her brother plots rebellion, but the cost may be everything. Her sisters cling to innocence in a kingdom that devours it. And when an envoy from Nytherra arrives under the guise of diplomacy, Dahlia's mask begins to crack. Secrets are revealed, alliances tested, and the fire she has buried for years threatens to consume the throne itself. Their leader.... Makes Dahlia feel things she's never dreamed of. A tyrant's reign is not eternal. A princess's silence is not forever. And a crown-once broken-cannot be mended.

Mortance: A Miscarriage of Hope
Twelve-hundred years ago, the first king of Sacreon led a rebellion against an empire of witches. The war for who would rule next continues to this day. A false guise of peace came over Ert after two genocides, but there is no one so foolish as to claim the fighting is done. A prophecy claims that war will return to Ert when the moons are full once again on Ascenday. That day is growing closer now, and there is not a fool in the warring nations who does not dread its coming. In the midst of this all, the heirs to Sacreon struggle to find their place in this world of kings and knights and gods and elves and witches. A princess falls for someone she cannot hope to have, prince travels south to broker an alliance, a warrior seeks vengeance for the death of her sister. and the heir to a long forgotten kingdom quests for glory. Behind all of this, one man journeys north to an island of long forgotten magic with plans of justice, and The Wolf Witch goes west, searching for the one who can stop this war and unite Ert once again: The Silver Girl. Note: The Wolf Witch is meant to be a prequel to this book, and Sora will make an appearance, but she will not be a main character. By the way I take huge inspiration and influence from A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones so if you like that you'll probably like this (and my other writings I hope). Cover created by the most excellent @apprehensiveanne. It's very cool.Concluida
For The Sword
"I don't want your crown," he murmured, "just the parts of you you've never given away." He kissed her like he meant it. Lied to her like he didn't. ⚔︎⚔︎⚔︎ Once upon a time, in the mist-laced hills of the Gilded Kingdom, a princess was born - not merely to rule, but to become the greatest queen Aurelia had ever known. Raised behind the palace walls she was taught to walk with grace, speak with poise, and bury herself in the ancient tomes of the Great Library. But what becomes of a princess who dreams not of silk gowns, but steel blades? Who craves not a throne beside a king, but the freedom to forge her own fate? When the time comes to select her consort through the age-old contest, Lydia finds herself suffocating in a world of masks and manners. Among the peacocks of polished nobility that now swarm her home, she must navigate deception, ambition, and perhaps, the stirrings of something far more dangerous than politics. As snow falls red upon the palace grounds, whispers stir from the far reaches of the world. The Nine Kingdoms are rising. And destiny - long buried in blood and prophecy - begins to awaken. Lydia's path will lead her to a choice that could shatter her crown, her heart, and the very foundations of her realm. Her hand is at stake. The prize is her kingdom. Because when fairytales end... only steel remains. #1 of The Gilded Kingdom series![Motheaten Memories [Yandere Prince x Enemy Princess Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/258211229-256-k881466.jpg)
