Stolen Crown

"They buried a Princess... but awakened a Queen."
~
Princess Evelisse Aurelia was born with everything a girl could dream of.

A loving family.
A kingdom that adored her.
Three brothers who protected her.
A prince who promised to love her forever.

And a childhood friend who quietly loved her more than anyone ever knew.

But everything she had was taken from her-not by an enemy kingdom, not by war, but by someone who stood beside her all her life.

Seraphine, the daughter of the royal head maid, was born on the same day as Evelisse. Raised together, they were often called sisters by the people of the kingdom. But while Evelisse saw a friend, Seraphine saw a life she wanted to steal.

The crown.
The admiration.
The family.
The love.

Piece by piece, Seraphine rewrote the story.

With carefully crafted lies, fake tears, and a perfect image of innocence, she turned the kingdom against the very princess who once trusted her the most. The people who loved Evelisse began to doubt her. The family she cherished began to fear her. The man she loved chose to believe the lies.

And when Seraphine's final scheme succeeded, Evelisse lost everything.

Her name became a curse.
Her heart became a battlefield.
And her own family delivered her final punishment.

But death was not the end.

Five years before the day her world collapsed, Evelisse awakens with the memories of her past life still burning within her.

This time, she knows every lie.
Every betrayal.
Every person who abandoned her.

But a second chance comes with a question she never expected:

If she changes the future, will she save the people she loved... or will she become the cold-hearted villain they once believed her to be?

A rebirth story.
