One is a Queen built on secrets. The other is a maid who risks everything for the heart.
In the suffocating halls of the Gyeongbokgung Palace, Queen Hyo-jin is known as the "Ice Peony"-a stoic, cold masterpiece hiding a birth secret that could topple the Joseon Dynasty. To the world, she is a goddess; in private, she is a prisoner of her own crown.
But the frost begins to melt when she meets Sohye, a brilliant and observant maid who sees the woman behind the royal mask. In the flickering shadows of the library, a forbidden love blooms-one that offers Hyo-jin her first taste of humanity, but carries a price paid in blood.
In a palace of predators where whispers are deadlier than blades, their bond is a death sentence. As a Blood Moon rises and political traps close in, Hyo-jin and Sohye must decide: will they sacrifice their love to save the throne, or burn the kingdom to the ground for the truth?

Abhiranika ~ The Withered Princess
I was in love with a man I knew nothing about. Until I was wedded to the one I was destined for. I thought it would be easy to forget him and move on with my life. I was ready to give it a chance. He had broken my heart, after all. But things don't always go the way you want, do they? Everything changed when I stepped into this marriage and realized it needed me more than I needed it. I had a huge family. A whole line of brothers-in-law and a grumpy sister-in-law, who was also once my best friend. I did as I was told. I didn't even give it a thought, how drastically my life was about to change because of this decision. Love doesn't always bloom roses in your garden. Sometimes, it leaves behind dead trees that never bloom, no matter how many springs come and go. I was that tree. My husband was everything a woman could ask for. I don't know if he hated me or not... but I was certain I couldn't give him the true love he deserved. Every time I think of it, I realize I am just a withered Princess. No matter how many roses my husband blooms for me, I will always be crushed beneath the weight of my past and mistakes. As always, I found myself standing by the window, feeling the cold air kiss my cheeks while my husband slept on the bed behind me. I rubbed my arms to warm myself. The moon was pretty.

The Fragrant Ger's Second Spring
"In my previous life, I spent years wishing for a family. In this life... I woke up with a husband and an adorable son." Born as an omega with the rare Pheromone Deficiency Syndrome, Yu An was everything society considered perfect-gentle, talented, and the owner of the Federation's most famous perfume brand. He could create fragrances that captivated millions, yet his own body betrayed him. Unable to form a stable pheromone bond and told he would likely never have children, he lived with the quiet pain of being an "incomplete omega." The only person he ever loved shattered his heart. Betrayed by the alpha who had only coveted his wealth, Yu An lost his life in a tragic accident... ...only to awaken in the body of a ger in an ancient world. This time, he has what he once dreamed of-a kind but distant hunter husband, an irresistibly chubby two-year-old son, and a peaceful home tucked away in a mountain village. Yet the original owner left behind broken trust, lingering guilt, and a reputation that won't disappear overnight. Determined to cherish the life he was given, Yu An slowly wins back his family's hearts with warm meals, gentle care, and the fragrances that once made him famous. As his perfume business flourishes across the empire, the quiet hunter beside him begins to reveal a secret powerful enough to shake the entire dynasty. Can a man who lost everything finally protect the family he never thought he would have? Or will the past hidden behind his husband's gentle smile destroy the peaceful life they built together? A slow-burn romance filled with family warmth, village life, adorable childcare, business growth, hidden identities, political intrigue, and the healing power of unconditional love.

Swaran Raheel~ The Battle Of Blood Vs Crown
He was my love, but I was just his path towards the crown which he never owned. When my parents warned me he was a terrorist, I laughed. I didn't believe them. Not until he robbed his own love and left her to die in tiny deaths, moment by moment. We weren't just a few years apart in age, but miles apart in our thoughts as well. Our origins were different, our upbringings were different, we lived in different directions of the world, and yet I never let any of these cause a crack between us, until he decided to build one. REVENGE. His revenge. I was born with the title of Princess, and he was forced to become a knight. He was ready to destroy both of us in the flames of his revenge, lapping around our relationship's newly dug grave. And yet, I stood there firm, unshakable, unbreakable, indestructible, ready to see what his extent was. Because no matter what, at the edge where he ends... I begin. Our marriage didn't only gave a new direction to our relation, but it also sparked an unspoken hunger in him. I don't know why I was getting punished for something I never did. Not only did I betray the promise to my parents, but I also betrayed my every boundary for him. My love for him turned to my dedication when he gave me the only reason to hate him. He put his blade on the neck of the only one I loved the most. So, I put my blade on him, slicing off all the threads of our never budding relationship. He wanted to win it all for the Crown. So, I destroyed it all for the Blood. It was the battle of Blood vs Crown. And the winner was yet to be announced.Concluida

The Crown Prince's Destined Bride
For eighteen years, they have known each other's names. For eighteen years, they have known they are destined to marry. For eighteen years, they have never been allowed to meet. A prophecy declared that Yuvrani Nandhini Devi Mahadevan of Chandravali and Yuvraj Rudra Veer Pratap Suryavanshi of Suryagarh are bound by fate. But the same prophecy carried a terrifying warning: If they see each other before the White Comet returns eighteen years later, one of them will die. Now the comet is returning. As destiny prepares to unite them at last, Rudra finds himself chasing the truth behind his elder brother's murder-a mystery buried beneath secrets, lies, and powerful enemies. Together, Rudra and Nandhini are drawn into a dangerous hunt for the truth, uncovering conspiracies that threaten not only their kingdoms, but the future fate intended for them. And somewhere between prophecy and reality, duty and desire, grief and healing, they discover a love far deeper than destiny itself-a bond built on unwavering trust, fierce loyalty, and a connection that feels as though their souls have always belonged to one another. A story of fate, love, royal intrigue, family bonds, hidden enemies, and two hearts destined not only to find each other-but to become each other's greatest strength.

The Man Destined To Kill Me Became Obsessed
Yara Isaye loses her family in an accident. Two days later, she wakes up in a novel she once read, as the story's villainess, Yara Julian Isaye. Tyrannical, cruel, and unforgiving. Destined to be rejected by her own family, and the one fated to die at the hands of the Empire's most unfeeling man. She already knows how it unfolds. So she keeps her distance. She does not reach for them, does not question the role she has been given. It is easier to accept what has already been written than to hope for something else. Grief dulls everything else, whether she lives or dies no longer feels important. Until the story begins to shift. A hesitation where there should be indifference, a quiet concern that does not belong, and the man who was meant to kill her, once distant, and unmoved, no longer looks at her as he should, but with something far more difficult to name. Yara tells herself it changes nothing, because some endings are deserved. Aren't they? [Disclaimer: English isn't my first language so expect grammatical errors]
