She has lived a hundred deaths,
and still, the story begins with her name.

In a kingdom where sons turn into beasts and daughters bear no love,
Korina is chosen again.
Bound to a cursed prince with golden eyes and secrets beneath his skin,
she walks a path lined with shattered glass,
where memory is a burden 
and the truth is a blade.

The empire believes her a pawn.
They forget the girl who once cast the curse.
They forget the blood she's already spilled 
and the lives she's lost to time.

But the past has claws,
and the future burns with teeth.
To break the cycle,
Korina must remember who she was,
forgive who she has become,
and choose whether to love the very thing that destroyed her.

The Duke's Daughter by Aoife_Sel24
20 parts Complete
Cassandra Allison Claire Von Montefrancesco is the sole and esteemed daughter of the Grand Duke of the Atesian Empire, a woman whose striking individuality sets her apart from the women of any realm. Possessing an exceptional blend of courage, intelligence, strength, audacity, astuteness, and prudence, she chooses to conceal her true nature behind the mask of a meek, docile lady within the Empire. Unlike her peers, who embody the conventional ideals of sweetness and benevolence, Cassandra defies these expectations, offering instead a stark contrast to the typical noblewoman. Her unyielding spirit and unorthodox demeanor have earned her a reputation as an enigmatic figure-one often seen as a troublemaker, causing discord both within the Empire and her own family. Starved of love and understanding, she has become the proverbial black sheep of her lineage. However, everything changes when a young woman from a neighboring village arrives, claiming to be the true daughter of the Duke. She is immediately adored by the people, who mistake her for Cassandra, the Duke's only heir. The new arrival wins hearts with her innocent charm, quickly becoming the center of admiration, while Cassandra's reputation grows ever darker. But is this young woman truly who she claims to be? This story weaves the tale of a misunderstood, "villainous" noblewoman and a seemingly innocent village girl. What secrets lie beneath the surface, and how will their lives intertwine as the truth unfolds?
The Divine Devil  by manikarnika_
4 parts Ongoing
Every crown is a curse, and every heir is a sacrifice, When peace lies in bloody nights what will happen when the her ice cold heart melts in this warm embrace? She was not the woman she appeared to be. Behind those sharp eyes and cold composure was a soul shattered by betrayal and heartbreak. Once, she had known laughter, softness, and trust-but those days were long buried beneath layers of pain and rage. The scars of her past had carved away the girl she used to be, leaving behind a woman with a heart frozen in ice. Trust was a luxury she could no longer afford, and love? Love had become a cruel illusion she no longer believed in. All that remained was a single, burning desire-revenge. It was her fuel, her purpose, and the reason she rose each day with fire in her veins and steel in her gaze. She had become a devil in the eyes of many, but they didn't know the story behind the flames. And then, he came. A man unlike any she had ever known-warm where she was cold, gentle where she was fierce. He saw the thorns and bled willingly just to hold the rose. He didn't flinch at her anger or retreat from her silence. Instead, he embraced her darkness like it was a part of him. To him, she wasn't broken-she was beautiful in ways the world failed to understand. He loved her not despite her demons, but because of them. For the first time in years, she felt the warmth of something unfamiliar-hope. He would give up everything for her: his name, his pride, even his morals. Not because he was weak, but because his love for her was that strong. He didn't want to fix her-he only wanted to hold her, to show her that she didn't have to fight alone.

17 parts Ongoing Mature

Princess Caitlyn Kiramman is everything she must be. The perfect heir, obedient, calculated, and promised for power...not love. But when Violet Lane, a lowborn knight from Zaun, wins the royal tournament and saves the queen's life, she earns the offer of a lifetime. And with it, a post too close to the princess she was never meant to want. What starts as friction burns into desire. Stolen glances. Heated arguments. Kisses neither of them should have shared. Turning into breathless moments. A knight's grip on royal hips. A princess pressed to stone. Mouths colliding like a secret too long denied. Caitlyn was trained to serve her kingdom. Vi was trained to fight for survival. Neither was ready for the taste of real temptation, let alone for what would bloom from it. But in a kingdom already trembling under the weight of secrets, whispers of forbidden magic, Queen Cassandra demanding obedience and a House waiting to claim the princess, the crown, Caitlyn begins to realize that the fate of the realm rests in her hands. To obey means to hold onto the royal chains. To give in means risking it all. But in her Knight's arms... She feels it, not the weight of her destiny but the pull of her soul.
