Not a Damsel in Distress

Princess Orla is clever, fiercely independent, and entirely unimpressed by the idea that a princess should wait around to be rescued.
Prince Gabriel is equally proud, effortlessly charming, and far too accustomed to getting his way.
Born into neighbouring royal families bound by friendship, duty, and expectation, the two have spent years learning exactly how to push each other's buttons. Their sharp tongues and stubborn personalities make every encounter a battle of wills-and neither has any intention of surrendering.
Orla refuses to be treated like a fragile princess.
Gabriel refuses to be told what to do.
Between royal duties, endless banter, simmering rivalry, and an undeniable chemistry neither is willing to acknowledge, their relationship becomes a dangerous game where pride is the armor and affection is the one thing neither knows how to defend against.
Because sometimes the person who challenges you the most is the one who understands you best.
And Orla?
She was never a damsel in distress.
