She was only a Duke's daughter...of another kingdom.
Yet, she was the girl who kissed him 5 years ago...
Yet, He was the entourage of Princess Charlotte, his sister.
She had grown close to him...Without knowing him.
He looked back to his father's expecting face and made up his mind.
He descended the stairs making his way past the eligible ladies...
Past the dancing couples...
Past the orchestra....
All the way to the Grand piano....To her...
Her playing paused momentarily as she met his eyes...
Her eyes widened...
"Welcoming to the Ball...." The court eunuch started. "His Royal Highness..."
He gave her a small smile.
"The Crown Prince of the North-Eastern Empire..."
"It's you."
She recognized him.

Breaking the Chains of Destiny
A Modern Royal Love Story Serena was supposed to be the villainess. In the world of Crowned by Love, she was fated to be Prince Kale Olliric's unwanted fiancée-arrogant, bitter, and doomed to be exiled when he fell for the novel's heroine. But Serena has a secret. She's not the same Serena. She woke up at the age of three with memories of her past life-a life where she had read this story before and knew exactly how it ended. Refusing to be a pawn in a tragic tale, she carves her own path, away from nobility and the royal court. Instead of chasing after a prince, she becomes a world-class athlete, an Olympic figure skater and a tennis champion. She builds her own fortune, invests wisely, and even opens her own teahouse-an escape from the chains of nobility. She is finally free. Or so she thought. When Prince Kale unexpectedly walks into her café, drawn to the woman who should have been his fiancée but has become something entirely different, Serena knows her carefully built walls are beginning to crack. He shouldn't care about her-she's done everything in her power to make sure of that. Yet, for the first time, the cold and untouchable prince seems intrigued. Now, Serena faces a choice: run further from fate or stand her ground against the prince who should have never noticed her. After all, she already defied the story once. What's stopping her from rewriting it completely? This is my original work, it is based on modern day royaltyComplete
The Reluctant Princess - a Novella
***Warning: Explicit Sexual Content*** Lavinia gripped her sister's elbow, as the dinner guests mingled in the garden, champagne flutes in hand. "What is the matter? You look... um, belligerent." "I'm going to be imprisoned for crimes against the crown before this night is over, sister," Elizabeth said, with a good dose of malice, and swiftly downed the contents of her glass, in a most unladylike way. "Care to explain before we go in for dinner?" "I wish I could explain, but I really don't know where to begin, and I'm afraid you are the last person I should be telling my tale to." Lavinia looked puzzled. "Try me." Elizabeth sighed, wishing she did not have a sister who had chosen to live the rest of her life married to God. She was supposed to be the one person she could go to and talk about womanly things, damn her eyes. "All I will say is that earlier today I had an unfortunate encounter with my betrothed... and his... um..." she fumbled for the right word. She supposed penis was the correct, scientific term, but saying the word seemed plain wrong in the presence of her pious sister. She therefore made a vague, awkward, wave-like gesture in the general area of her middle, blushing furiously. Had Lavinia been drinking champagne, she might have choked on it, but thankfully, she did not indulge in spirits. She did look, however, aghast. "I beg your pardon?" Elizabeth shook her head, turning her attention to the other side of the terrace, where the king and queen were calling their guests' attention. This was not the time, nor the place to divulge any further details. "Well, speak of the devil..." Elizabeth muttered, snatching another glass of champagne from a nearby valet. Set in a fictonal kindgom, this is the story of Elizabeth who begrudgingly arrives at the royal palace to finally wed Henry, the haughty prince to whom she had been promised since they were chldren.Complete

Rowans Choice
Completed ✨👸🏼 Born to the fairy elite, the royal line, next in line to take the crown, a queen to be announced on her next birthday, with her royal responsibilities and...one choice... only one... everything else has always been decided for her. "Who has Princess Rowan chosen to be her eternal mate?" A question, oh a question, It was already whittled down by the draw upon her birth, a family name picked at random, to keep this fairy line fair, hardly fair to the one picking, to do so from such a small pool of options. Luckily fairy families were large but as Rowan searched the faces in front of her, five brothers... all handsome, all rather eager to take the beautiful Princess's hand... it was the sister, stood to the left, observing, that caught Rowans eye and if she only got this one choice then it was clear. She had read the rules, many, many times, they clearly state to pick from the chosen families kin, sixteen years and over only, nothing on the gender, not that it had ever been done before but rules were rules and Rowan smirked as she let her choice roll over her tongue. She would choose the one thing her father would be most furious about but couldn't change, her choice, and no other fairy, king or not could change it. "Andromeda" she would announce, finger flexed toward her, and the entire kingdom would erupt in the great hall with shock, as Andromeda of the sky line, was pushed forward by her mother into the mix with her brothers. "Rowan" her father would curse "if you place that ring on her finger your line has ended... please rethink your choice" But Rowan didn't care... and Andy had called out to her long before now, the beautiful brunette with striking green eyes, a daring smile and a powerful magic that Rowan had long admired. And after all... it was Rowans choice... to hell with the rules. *I DO NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR THIS BOOK TO BE COPIED, OR ADAPTED ON THIS PLATFORM, OR ANY OTHER, BY ANYONE ELSE* *Completed February 2023*Complete
