bodyguard cute forbiddenromance knightinshiningarmor princess regal romance royal royalfamily

Princess Isadora was born to rule, a jewel in the crown of a kingdom that demands perfection. She knows her duty-to marry for alliance, to wear the mask of a queen before she even ascends the throne. But in the shadows of the gilded palace, behind silken veils and whispered courtly games, she finds herself drawn to the one man she can never have.

Sir Elijah is bound by oath and honor, sworn to protect the princess with his life. He has spent years at her side, a silent sentinel, a loyal blade. But when stolen glances turn into lingering touches, when desire burns brighter than the torches lining the palace halls, he faces an impossible choice-betray his duty or his heart.

Their love is a secret carved in moonlight, a war waged in hushed breaths and trembling hands. But in a court riddled with deception and power-hungry nobles, nothing stays hidden for long. If their forbidden romance is discovered, it won't just be Elijah's life at stake-Isadora's crown, and the kingdom itself, could crumble.

𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐊 & 𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐒. by dioxxys

You were born to silk and ceremony. A princess bound by etiquette, by duty, by the suffocating weight of a crown you never asked to wear. Beyond the palace walls, the city whispers of lantern-lit markets and moonlit nights - of freedom you've only ever dreamed of. When you slip past the gates one evening, you don't expect to find him: a ragged, soft-eyed boy begging in the shadows. He should mean nothing to you. Yet every stolen glance, every secret meeting by starlight, pulls you further from the world you've always known. He's forbidden. You're untouchable. But under the moonlight, none of that seems to matter. And soon, you'll have to choose: the crown you were born to wear, or the boy who's teaching you how to live.

CROWN & STEEL.. by Elvyscott11

In a kingdom bound by duty, honor, and blood-love was the greatest rebellion of all. Prince Rowan has always lived beneath the weight of his brother's crown, destined to marry for alliance and power, not for love. But his heart belongs to Sir Tristan Hale, a knight sworn to protect the throne. Their love, tender and forbidden, burns brighter than the fires of war-and threatens to destroy everything they both swore to protect. When their secret is discovered, betrayal and heartbreak follow. Torn between duty and desire, Rowan must choose: obey the crown or fight for the man who owns his heart. As swords clash and kingdoms tremble, love becomes both their greatest weapon and their deepest wound. Yet amid the chaos, unlikely allies rise-Queen Elora, Sir Gideon, and even the noble Princess Eliar-proving that not all battles are fought with steel. Some are won with courage, sacrifice, and the quiet defiance of two souls refusing to part. "Crown and Steel" is a sweeping tale of forbidden love, loyalty, and redemption-a story where hearts bleed as fiercely as blades, and where love, in the end, conquers the throne itself.

YOURS TO BLEED FOR - A Mystery Thriller Romance by OmotolaAledare

Sierra Whitmore was never meant to be anything more than a responsibility. At least, that's what Caleb told himself the night he took her in-traumatized, orphaned, and marked by the violence her father left behind. As the heir to a powerful security empire, Caleb vowed to protect her from everything. Even from himself. Years later, Sierra is no longer a fragile girl hiding behind locked doors. She's brilliant, brave, and heartbreakingly off-limits. And Caleb? He's still the man who would kill for her... but never touch her. When Sierra's estranged father resurfaces-deadlier than ever-Caleb's iron control begins to fracture. Because protecting her now means dragging her closer, not pushing her away. And Sierra is done pretending she doesn't want more than safety. She wants *him*. But loving her could destroy everything. And this time, Caleb may not be able to walk away. ---

Child Of The Phoenix by femertens

As heir to the kingdom of Astral, Princess Alessia Astrael is no stranger to rules - she's lived her whole life behind them. Sharp-tongued, perfectly composed, and trained to navigate the polished cruelty of court life, she's mastered the art of restraint. But beneath the surface, cracks are forming. Christian Russel, a seasoned soldier with a quiet edge and a gaze that misses nothing, is assigned as her new personal guard. He's not charming. He's not soft. He's loyal, infuriatingly calm - and completely off-limits. Their connection shouldn't deepen. But it does. What starts as tension blooms into something forbidden. A slow-burn loyalty neither of them fully understands, forged in quiet hallways, glances that linger too long, and truths spoken when no one else is listening. Yet Astral's palace is a nest of old secrets, shifting alliances, and masked intentions. And while Alessia tries to keep her heart guarded, everything around her is starting to move - including pieces far beyond her control. In a kingdom that demands perfection, desire has consequences. And love might be the most dangerous rebellion of all.

Love, By Any Other Name by penandpressure

Amid the glittering courts and whispered intrigues of late-nineteenth-century Estoria, the Season begins - a spectacle of elegance, envy, and quiet war. Lady Isadora Ravenshade, orphaned daughter of a disgraced duke, enters society under the wary guardianship of her aunt, Duchess Beatrice of Ravensleigh. What begins as obligation soon becomes transformation, as Isadora's grace - unstudied, unpolished, and disarmingly sincere - unsettles those who rely upon artifice to survive. Two princes will come to notice her: Lucien de Montclair, the charming Lysandrian diplomat whose words are as smooth as his smile, and Prince Sebastian Valemont, heir to Estoria's throne - reserved, observant, and drawn to quiet strength. Between them lies more than affection; there are treaties, rivalries, and a court that never forgives those who misstep beneath its chandeliers. In a world where every glance can wound and every dance conceals intent, Isadora must learn that survival at court is not granted by beauty or birth - but by understanding the game itself. Intrigue is its own kind of love story. And love, in the wrong hands, is the most dangerous intrigue of all.

Behind the Throne's Veil by BrowNiesniyongbok

In the gilded courts of Aethelgard, Princess Siorse is a gilded sacrifice - her hand in a marriage a political tool to forge peace and ensure her legacy. But, behind the silk and smiles, Siorse keeps a secret that can destroy the fragile alliance: her heart isn't a distant prince, it belongs to her protector Idris, the silent, muted knight who is meant to protect her from everyone - except for himself. Idris is held to a vow of loyalty once made, but every gaze and whispered word becomes a treasonous act. Their love is fierce, a quiet fire propped behind the heavy curtains of the throne room, knowing that both of their time is almost up. As the day of the royal betrothal approaches and the stakes become deadly, a clandestine group starts hunting for the secret vulnerabilities of the crown, and Idris finds his vow to Siorse conflicting with a darker, long-held oath. Does he break the King and risk the kingdom falling into civil war to keep the woman he loves, or does he uphold his duty, that may lead both to a lifetime of agony and separation? The veil is prepared to be lifted. Two hearts are beating as one but only one heart can survive the breaking. The question is not if their secret will be uncovered but what awful sacrifice will be asked of them once the truth about the love Behind the Throne's Veil is unveiled.
