THE SCARLET DECREE...
-By Celestia Virelle
They took her family, her throne, and her future. Now she's taking everything back- one blade, one lie, one kiss at a time.
At just twenty-two, Lyra Dravaryn is no pawn in their game-she is the game. Armed with a mind as sharp as any blade and a beauty that disarms even her most ruthless enemies, she is both seductress and sovereign. Every glance is a trap, every word a calculation.
Trained in deadly dance of diplomacy, seduction, and war, Queen Lyra wields her power with elegance and unrelenting precision. But as whispers of rebellion spread and long-buried secrets rise, her enemies close in- unaware that she's already planned their end.
Then comes him- a rival king , cunning, and impossible to ignore. In a world where love is weakness, Lyra must choose: yield to the pull of desire, or turn her heart into her sharpest weapon.
The Scarlet Decree is a dark, seductive tale of political betrayal, forbidden passion, and a queen's relentless ascent. In the kingdom of Virelia, power is pleasure, vengeance is duty, and only one woman dares to rule them all.
