At the heart of this tale stands Isabel Harvanser, the cast-aside daughter of King Louis Brail. Once the cherished heir to the throne, she is now stripped of her title and future, Isabel harbors a single, burning vow-to reclaim what was stolen from her. But as she navigates the treacherous politics of nobility, she begins to realize that power is not simply given-it must be taken. Alongside Isabel's story is the story of her family. Her maternals figures, once radiant and ambitious young noblewomen attempt to play the courtly game with ease. Their paths are destined to end, and their fates tangled in a battle of wits, will, and whispered alliances. As noble daughters are bartered for power and kings secure their legacies through blood and marriage, Isabel must decide who she will become-a pawn in the hands of those who rule or a queen in her own right. A Single Rose is a gripping tale of ambition, family, and the cost of power. For in a world where crowns are won through cunning defeats, and love is a luxury few can afford, only the ruthless will rise. Will Isabel carve her own destiny, or will she be buried beneath the weight of duty and betrayal? One thing is certain-she will not go quietly. Notes: The title of Lord Baron is given to those who rules a region of land in the ruler of the country's name. So the king is the ruler of the entire country, and a lord Baron is the ruler of a designated region within that country.Complete

Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.

She is thrown into a life of servitude to the king. But What happens when the king develops a deep desire for her? Will she fall in love with the merciless King? 𝑬𝒙𝒄𝒆𝒓𝒑𝒕: I hear the king get up from his seat and start walking over to me. I see his shoes come into my line of vision. My senses are clouded by his strong scent of cedarwood. I refuse to look up at him. He gives off an aura that is dark and intimidating. My eyes begin to swell with tears at the thought that I will end up like the man before me. "Look at me," he commands in a deep voice. I refuse. He commands again this time more cynical, "Look. at. me!" His voice booms off the walls, echoing in the room. I flinch at the tone but still refuse. Then suddenly, he roughly raised my chin. My eyes meet his cold blue ones. His eyes seem to soften for a moment then quickly return to their cold state. He muttered something under his breath that I didn't catch. He lets go of my chin and walks around, scanning me with his eyes. "What am I to do with you?" He mutters to himself. After a few moments, he is back in front of me. He smirks, "I will make you my personal chambermaid." CONTINUE THE STORY INSIDE...
