She wakes up in a manor, wearing silk, called Lady Elyra by strangers who expect her to act like royalty.
But Mira isn't a noble, she's a tired student who misses her cat and can't even curtsy.
Worse, someone's watching her. Whispering. Waiting.
Now, Mira must uncover the truth about Elyra's life, before it becomes her own.

The Thorn and The Crown: A Love Forged In Curse And Flame
The Thorn and The Crown Written by Francisca In a realm where magic is forbidden and hearts are bound by duty, love might be the most dangerous curse of all. Elira, the quiet daughter of a provincial noble, has always dreamed of freedom beyond her family's cold walls. But when her kingdom teeters on the brink of ruin, she is forced into a political marriage with Prince Kaelen - the exiled heir of the cursed Velmorian dynasty. A prince shrouded in shadows. A crown tainted by blood. Kaelen bears a monstrous curse that twists both body and soul, isolating him from the living and binding him to a forgotten, crumbling palace ruled by ancient magic and spectral creatures. His touch burns. His gaze bewilders. His secrets could break nations. As Elira navigates courtly intrigues, deadly creatures, and the treacherous whispers of a fractured realm, she discovers that the line between duty and desire is as thin as a blade's edge. Slowly, against her will, she falls for the man behind the monstrous mask - and unearths an ancient prophecy that hints she alone might hold the key to breaking his curse. But saving Kaelen means defying kings, awakening forbidden magic, and facing a tragic destiny written long before she was born. A tale of dark fantasy, forbidden love, cursed kingdoms, and battles that scar the soul. When thorns entwine crowns, will love conquer the darkness - or be consumed by it?

I stop, putting my hands on my hips. "Are you going to order all of them?" "If I want to, yes, I will." He doesn't budge. I sigh, sitting next to him. "You know that you don't have to do this. I can go buy my own dresses." "I know, but I want to see you wear dresses that I chose. Besides, is it so wrong to want to spend time with you?" ______ Note: This is entirely my work. I want to see if I'm able to write something without a plot set up for me. I hope you like it!Complete
