"Princess Mia! Quiet!!" Evandros gave a menacing look at his sister's daughter.

Crown.Prince.of.our.Kingdom" Everyone was dumbfound at Queen's shocking revelation. "Mother, you are mistaken, he has robbed our Royal treasure. The lost Diadem has been found" He proudly showed the immaculate diamond Diadem that dazzled in the sunlight, but she shoved his hand away and approached the boy, caressed his cheeks ever so lightly, fearing that he would disappear into thin air with brimming tears, "My treasure has been found!!" *How can a thief be the crown Prince? *Given the Queen's wit and valour, can anyone fool her? *Without any interrogation, how did she declare that he is the crown Prince? *If so, who is the real thief that had stolen the Diadem?

Playing for Keeps[Kingx#1] [COMPLETED]
Highest ranking: #1 in teen fiction. I though I knew Archer McCarty. The controlling, stubborn bad boy who always try and get his way, the bully who made my childhood days waste away. The guy who grew up to be hot as hell. That was why I agree to play the game, for revenge. I wasn't prepared to see a whole different side of him. He is overwhelming and possessive. He goes all caveman when another guy so much as breathe in my direction. He let me break his defense. The tables are turned and I see everything in his view. It seems to make more sense. I wasn't expecting to fall for him by unraveling him but it was easy. I don't know how to tell him that all of these started with that game. Do I even want to? [WARNING: PG-13 Some scenes may be inappropriate for younger crowds. If you are not a fan of over the top possessive hero. This is not the book for you]Complete
