In the kingdom of Ambercrest, where the winds whisper secrets and shadows hold power, Princess Rebekah Starridge finds herself at the heart of a brewing storm. 

As her family welcomes the enigmatic royal family of Nevander, tensions rise, and courtly games begin. The arrival of the icy King Alabaster and his two sons--his charming yet inscrutable heir, Kael, and the elusive Bastyn--threatens to unravel the delicate balance of power between their kingdoms.

Beneath the surface of formalities and political intrigue, Rebekah and Bastyn share a forbidden romance, a bond forged in stolen glances and moonlit meetings. 

Amidst courtship, whispers, and the weight of expectation, Rebekah uncovers the dark truths lurking behind the palace walls. With her own hidden powers awakening, she'll have to decide who she can trust before the shadows close in.

At the center of this tale were two women whose destinies were intertwined in ways neither could have imagined-an imposter princess and her steadfast maid. The imposter princess, a master of deception and intrigue, had usurped the identity of the true heir to the throne, assuming a life of luxury and privilege. Yet beneath the façade of royalty, her heart yearned for something genuine, something forbidden-the love of her loyal maid. The maid, bound by duty and loyalty, refused to acknowledge the tender feelings that blossomed within her whenever the imposter princess's gaze lingered a moment too long or her touch lingered a fraction too close. ━━━━━━━━━━━¡SHORT STORY!

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
