Kalevala: The Nightshade Crown

In a gilded empire built on betrayal and blood, Princess Kalevala Trevairia was born to rule - or to be ruined. The daughter of a ruthless Emperor and a god-touched lineage, her beauty is both her weapon and her curse. Every smile she gives hides a blade; every promise, a poison.

When a brutal tournament crowns a new champion - a man who wins her hand through violence and fate - Kalevala finds herself ensnared in a game she once thought she controlled. To survive, she must master the art of cruelty her mother perfected, even as her heart stirs toward the one man who threatens her empire's cold order.

But the throne she fights to inherit is not made of gold - it is woven with lies, blood, and nightshade. And as enemies close in and gods whisper her name, Kalevala must decide: will she be her father's curse or her empire's salvation?

The crown is waiting. Who will bleed for it.
