"He was born in the shadows. Now the crown will burn with his name."
Elias was never meant to be a prince. Born of the king's shame and a mother whose past is veiled in mystery, he has lived his life on the edges of the throne-unwanted, unclaimed, and unseen. But on his twenty-first birthday, secrets long buried begin to surface: a prophecy, a necklace left by his mother, and a fury that no longer stays silent.
As nobles whisper and kingdoms tremble, Elias must decide whether to remain in the shadow of his father's crown... or seize a destiny that could set the world on fire.

But my family is like really really really famous for being... talented what the original person in this body didn't have so he was pretty much just know to be useless and worthless. The only thing he was good at was annoy people like.. he was really really good at that. He had a bad reputation. His father, couldn't make any other children and he couldn't let his son ,a good-for-nothing, take over his company or make money...

He couldn't technically go to it because of he was talentless so he asked for money. His father accepted but the only things that help is to worsen his reputation... Now! What am I gonna do!!??Complete

Ashes Of The Throne | Part I
"Not every heir wants the throne." PART I | She buried her name, her crown, and her past-but some things don't stay dead. Her kingdom is gone-burned to ash, buried in betrayal. She escaped with nothing but a haunted heart, a fractured name, and a secret sharp enough to split her soul. Earth was never meant to be a refuge. But in its quiet chaos, she tried to become someone else- smaller, safer... invisible. Then she met Matthew. Arrogant. Magnetic. The kind of man you clash with first- before you realise you'd fight for him just as hard. Because in a world like this, love doesn't come easy- and loyalty costs more than most people are willing to give. Sera has lived between two lives, two names, two truths. But the past doesn't stay buried. When it finds her- it comes with teeth. Because secrets rot. Kingdoms fall. But the people you choose to stand beside? They're the only thing that makes the fall worth surviving. Now everything she ran from is closing in. Not to crown her- but to break her. Fate doesn't ask permission. Destiny doesn't wait for peace. And not every heir wants the throne... ...but some are born to burn-and some will burn the world to protect the people they love.Complete
