The Prince would still be my heir, even though you're the Empress.‟ ‟Then why keep me, Sire, if I am of no use to you? It's obvious that you do not intend to add any more members to the imperial family besides yourself and the Prince, so why marry me?‟ *** Gianita, a princess from an eastern country is sent to marry the widowed Emperor of Angletonia, a vast and prosperous empire in the western hemisphere. To her dismay, the Emperor prefers the companion of his young son instead of his new bride. There were no traces of his previous marriage, only that the wife died shortly after the Prince was born.

Kalevala: The Nightshade Crown by WillowHarren

In a gilded empire built on betrayal and blood, Princess Kalevala Trevairia was born to rule - or to be ruined. The daughter of a ruthless Emperor and a god-touched lineage, her beauty is both her weapon and her curse. Every smile she gives hides a blade; every promise, a poison. When a brutal tournament crowns a new champion - a man who wins her hand through violence and fate - Kalevala finds herself ensnared in a game she once thought she controlled. To survive, she must master the art of cruelty her mother perfected, even as her heart stirs toward the one man who threatens her empire's cold order. But the throne she fights to inherit is not made of gold - it is woven with lies, blood, and nightshade. And as enemies close in and gods whisper her name, Kalevala must decide: will she be her father's curse or her empire's salvation? The crown is waiting. Who will bleed for it.

The Sovereign Empire by CosmicLamb666

She Was Born in the Shadows - Now the World Will Kneel. In a land of magic and chaos, a divine Queen rises from the ashes of the Undercity with one goal: to unite the powerful and wild, fractured Sovereign Isle under her reign. Armed with unmatched power, unwavering purpose, and a council of fiercely devoted (and dangerously conflicted) warriors, she's building a council and an empire from nothing - one blood oath, one battlefield, and one broken heart at a time. But when loyalty clashes with love, and ancient rituals demand impossible sacrifices, can the Queen hold her new empire together... or will the weight of her crown destroy everything she's worked to build? Lust. Power. Passion. Politics. Love. Welcome to the birth of the Sovereign Empire.

Path to Power by BKDaniels

In the glittering halls of sixth-century Constantinople, an ancient temple burns - and with it, a dark prophecy is set in motion. Justinian, nephew to the aging Emperor Justin, finds himself thrust into a deadly game of power where noble blood means everything and his common birth marks him for destruction. At his side stands Theodora, a former actress whose wit and beauty make her as many enemies as allies. Together, they must navigate a court where every smile hides treachery and every friend could be an assassin. As shadowy forces gather against them, Justinian builds an unlikely alliance: Belisarius, a brilliant young general from the empire's savage frontier; John of Cappadocia, whose brutal efficiency keeps the empire running; and Magnus Aurelius, an ancient noble whose measured counsel masks unknown ambitions. But in the dark forests beyond Constantinople's walls, an otherworldly power stirs. The Shadow Master's warning echoes through time: "That which is sanctified, once desecrated, demands its price in full." Path to Power begins an epic saga of ambition, love, and betrayal, where the fate of an empire hangs on the choices of those who would rule it - and the price they're willing to pay for power.
