It's been three years since Selene made Bas bleed for love and like it.
The kingdom is thriving.
The King is still a menace.
Diego is still dying inside.
And the royal wedding is finally happening.
But when Selene's estranged younger sister Lia arrives at the palace-uninvited, dressed in scandal, and carrying secrets-it turns the entire court upside down.
Worse?
Eros, Bas's mysterious cousin and royal heir, recognizes her.
Or at least... he thinks he does.
Because Lia isn't just any noble.
She's the girl Eros once loved-and betrayed.
And now that she's back?
She's made it very, very clear:
"I'm not here for you. I'm here for my sister. Don't get in my way."
But Eros was never one to follow orders.
Especially not from the girl who once broke his heart with a single, perfect lie.
=====================
💬 AUTHOR'S NOTE:
This is Book 2 of a 4-part royal romance series-where ex-lovers return, secrets dress in silk, and emotional damage is served with wine at royal dinners.
If you love angst, second chances, and men who pretend they don't care but would burn the palace down if you cried-this one's for you.
Some heartbreaks never heal.
Some lies never die.
And some love stories aren't over-they're just waiting to be rewritten.

My Lucky Star (Complete)
There are two stories in this book. #1. My Lucky Star What would you do to change your fate? Pray with all your heart. Then give all your bad luck to someone who really care for you. Would you be able to do that? That's what little Daniel did to his childhood friend. Maybe the bad luck made her crossed dressed into male clothes half of her life. Or maybe the freedom given by the clothes. In the end, it's Jules' choice ***** Jules says, "People said a Lady is weak and helpless. They certainly never met me." She adds, "My name is Jules Knight. I'm my own savior. I don't need a man like you to solve all my problems." What crossed her male friend's minds... "Hard to win her heart. She is even more gentleman than I." "You taught me to accept flaws. There's beauty in imperfection. You crossed over and tossed my life upside down. Now I could no longer return to my old life." "She is like my evil twin. We devoured desserts in all the shops we ventured." #2. It started with a LIE "It's okay. Think of this marriage as a simple way to end our problems. Three years later, we shall abolish it. You would have a chance to marry the Lady you love." Ian stares her with unblinking eyes. Abby is a beautiful Lady. Not lacking suitors. He asks, "What did you get from this marriage?" "Freedom. Father is very ill. He wanted me to marry before he died. I don't want him to arrange my marriage with a stranger. At least we are childhood friends." "What if he didn't die in three years?" "It doesn't matter. My beloved would come by that time. He would take me away, far from England." One simple lie. It started their marriage in the wrong path. "Tris, my love for you is never a lie."Complete![Eros' Destiny [COMPLETE]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/129410888-256-k31929.jpg)
Eros' Destiny [COMPLETE]
Love, something I can't remember feeling for at least a thousand years. My mother never taught me to love, barely even showed me any. Only told me I was the God of it. The God of Love. And everything else that came with it. Desire, passion, lust, adoration, fondness and infatuation. I do remember very faintly how it felt like. The tender squeezing of the heart when I saw her smile. The way her sweet lips drugged me, making me want more. The way I wanted to protect her from everything, even from my mother. The pain that seeped into me when I couldn't have any of that anymore. When the memories of her haunted me and kept me awake every single fucking moment. All until I laid my eyes on her, when I finally found Destiny. ================================ Hello everyone! Welcome to my third book here on WattPad! A few stuff to take note of before we begin on this incredible journey with Eros. 1. No copying, plagiarising of any kind with my story. As usual, if I find out of such activity, I shall get a unicorn to pierce your cold dark heart ;) 2. This story will mostly be a guy's POV! *shocker* Yes really because I felt more inspired to write it in the testosterone's point of view and here we are. And yes I will write some chapters in the woman's POV every now and then in the book (like the prologue) but for now, we shall stick with the almighty Eros X) 3. This story is inspired by me wanting to write a story based on a man who had the power to somehow manipulate love and I thought Cupid would be a perfect idea. But we already have a Cupid book on WattPad by another author so I shall not jump onto that bandwagon. Instead I took Eros, he is somewhat like Cupid but is the Greek version. 4. THERE WILL BE SOME CHARACTER CROSSES FROM MY PREVIOUS BOOKS! And yes Eros may appear in my other stories as well because he is that versatile ;) And that's it! I hope you enjoy reading as much as I enjoy writing this crazy story! With love and regards, Janice GoldShakenComplete

She seeks to do best at all the things she do which makes her father the proudest of her. Like her name, she is beautiful, kind, reliable, secluded, and serene.

He doesn't want others to feel what he felt when he was left untended. He is scarred; he is hopeless. When he met her, he pushed her away but to no avail.

She's ready to sacrifice her comfortable and reserved life just to be with him. But he didn't want her to break apart. If it means he should drown just to save her, even if it will cause her to hate him entirely, he will let her go. And so he did. She came back loathing him, as he wished. And he swore he'll win her over.
