Lady Calanthe Aldebourne has always known her destiny: to become crown princess, and one day, empress. The empire calls her the Lavender of the Kingdom, a jewel of beauty and grace, and her engagement to the crown prince has secured her path to power.
But when Duke Adrian Ashford—her childhood friend turned war hero—returns victorious, the past she thought buried stirs once more. Years ago, they exchanged a promise as innocent children. Now Adrian has come to collect on it… and he will not be satisfied with friendship, nor with titles.
Caught between her loyalty to Prince Lucien and Adrian’s unrelenting claim, Calanthe must walk a dangerous line through court politics, whispered betrayals, and forbidden desires. Every alliance comes at a price, and every choice draws her deeper into a game of shadows—one that could win her the throne, or cost her everything.
Will she rise as empress beside the man she was promised to… or fall into ruin at the hands of the one who refuses to let her go?

"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.Complete

One night. One mistake. One heir to the throne. Alina Evercrest is the youngest and only daughter of a noble house-kind, sharp-eyed, and devoted to a life far from royal intrigue. But after her coming-of-age celebration at the palace ends with her waking in the Crown Prince's bed, everything changes. Especially when whispers start, and her monthly cycle doesn't come.

As tensions rise and enemies circle, Alina is thrust into the heart of royal power, where secrets burn and trust is rare.

Because in a world built on bloodlines, politics, and power, nothing is safe-not even the child they never meant to create. He would kill for her. She would fight kingdoms for him. Together, they'll burn the old world to build their own.Complete
