They were never meant to fall in love. But duty has a way of binding hearts tighter than chains-and fire has a way of consuming everything in its path.
When Princess Seraphina is bound by an arranged marriage to the kingdom's fiercest prince, Caelan, she expects a cold union of politics and survival. He is infuriatingly strong, arrogant, and unyielding. She is stubborn, sharp-tongued, and unwilling to bend.
They say they hate each other.
But the way he steps between her and every threat, tells a different story.
As enemies close in and betrayal poisons the court, Seraphina and Caelan must stand together-or risk losing everything. What begins as duty ignites into something deeper, ... a love neither of them can deny.
And when the flames rise, one truth becomes clear:
he would burn the world to protect her-
and she would burn beside him.

But when the Crown summons her family to the capital, she finds herself forced into a deadly game of politics, power, and temptation.

But the shadows whisper another name. Silais, a man with silver hair, a past soaked in blood, and a vow that ties Seraphina to secrets the royal family would kill to bury. Between a prince who cages her with fire and a phantom who claims her in darkness, Seraphina must decide where her loyalty, and her heart truly lies. And in Aurelius, love is just another battlefield. --- 🩸A dark fantasy romance where love is dangerous, power is bloody, and every choice can destroy a kingdom. Read now. But beware, no one escapes unscathed. Hello there! This is my first attempt at writing something, so please bear with me-I'm a bit sloppy when it comes to endings. You might find this story familiar if you're a fan of manhwa. That's no coincidence! This story is inspired by a dream I had after reading a typical romance manhwa (though I can't quite remember which one). All the double gaps means some time delay or skip. I hope you enjoy this little slice of my imagination! 💭✨ This was a one shot in one of my old account (which is not working unfortunately)Complete
