Lady Aria of Li-Aval feels like a prisoner, with a magnificent manor as her cage. Her father hides her from the rest of the world because Aria has hair like strands of gold. Literally, her hair is gold.
When Aria's father tries to marry her off to an elderly man, she takes her deceased mother's necklace and runs away with her servant, Tina. They stumble upon Torenth, a city hidden behind a waterfall, and the Guardians welcome her into their castle like family. Lord Deric tries to win her heart, but Aria's eyes are on Owen, the shy blacksmith.
When Aria finds out she is the next Guardian of Torenth according to a prophecy, she must figure out a way to keep her father out of Torenth. For if she cannot be the next Guardian, Torenth will be lost forever.

Aria thought the forest was her escape until it pulled her into a world she wasn't meant to see. One touch of an ancient mirror, and she's torn from everything she knows, landing in a realm where shadows breathe, torches burn blue, and danger lurks behind every corner. Kim is the Warden of the Veil. A cold, unyielding guardian tasked with protecting the portal between worlds. And now, this human girl has crossed it. She's reckless. He's ruthless. And yet, fate has other plans. In a world where magic is deadly, secrets are currency, and one wrong step could mean death, Aria must navigate a realm she doesn't understand...all while facing a man she can't ignore. Will she survive the Mirror Gate, or will the secrets behind the glass consume them both? ━━✦❘༻༺❘✦━━ Aria ran harder. Legs burning. Breath slicing through her lungs. She turned a corner, tripped on her nightgown and pitched forward. A hand caught her. An arm wrapped around her waist and hauled her back against a body that felt impossibly solid and impossibly warm. She gasped as his breath touched her neck, cold enough to raise every hair on her skin and the cool edge of his metal mask grazed her neck. "If something else had been chasing you, little Wanderer," he whispered, "you would already be dead." Fear hit first. Fascination followed like a betrayal. "I hate this," she breathed. "You should." he said, and his grip tightened once before he let her go.

The hidden heir:Beyond the crown
In the high-tech, magic-touched kingdom of **Aurelia**, every royal is born into the spotlight - except one. **Princess Elara Vale**, the youngest child of the royal family, was hidden from the world after a prophecy declared she would "awaken what was lost." To keep her safe, her parents erased her existence from public records. She grew up surrounded by love from her siblings but always behind walls, longing to see the world for herself. When her secret is accidentally leaked, Elara runs away - not in rebellion, but in search of freedom, identity, and purpose. In the neon city of **Ravenport**, she meets **Kael Arden**, a quiet mechanic with no memory of his childhood and a strange amulet that glows in her presence. As they form a bond, they're joined by a group of unexpected friends - a hacker, a healer, and a street magician - each searching for their own truth. Together, they discover that Kael is the lost prince of the long-vanished Shadow Realm, kidnapped at birth, and that the prophecy ties both of them to the future of their worlds. Through their journey, Elara learns what it means to live beyond a title. Kael learns what it means to belong. And their friends - ordinary people with extraordinary hearts - become the family they choose. It's a story about **finding friendship, courage, and self-worth** in a world that often defines you by what you were born to be - not who you choose to become.

The Princess and the Royal Guard
Princess Ariana has been in love with her best friend Coby since they were little children. The only problem is, he has always loved her as a sister and nothing more. When she realises that he may never come to love her romantically, a heartbroken Ariana agrees to court Prince Jasper of a neighbouring Kingdom. But what happens when Coby realises that his feelings for Ariana are in fact more then platonic, but she is now courting some Prince, who in his mind is not good enough for her, but is still a man who outweighs him in society since he is just a simple Royal Guard. Jealousy, tension and of course love collide in this short tale, which proves that true love can conquer over all. * Completed and edited but may still have some mistakes. * *If you enjoy the Royalty genre please check out my other books 'Being the Spoilt Princess' and 'The Tale of a Princess Kidnapped by Pirates'*הושלם![The Airbone Fate [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/388025227-256-k547897.jpg)
The Airbone Fate [COMPLETED]
Arianna Sapphire always thought her life was ordinary-quiet days, familiar faces, and dreams that never reached beyond the stars above her window. But everything changed on that night. A sacrifice was made-one that tore her from the only world she knew and thrust her into another. One decision, one unraveling truth, and her simple life was gone forever. Whispers of royalty and magic soon followed. Arianna discovers that she is no ordinary girl-she is the lost heir to the mystical realm of Enchancia, bearer of the legendary Diamond Sapphire. Within her flows the ancient power of air, a force once guarded by her ancestors, now awakened in her. But with that power comes great danger-especially when the kingdom's most feared enemies, the Dark King and his merciless son Cyrus, set their sights on her. They want her gem. Her magic. Her life. To protect her, Queen Celestia assigns her most trusted warrior: Captain Travis Collen, a strict, mysterious royal guard with a dark past and even darker blood. Known for his cold discipline and silence, Travis never expected to care-not for a mission, and certainly not for her. But as they face trials together-ambushes, betrayals, battles that scar both body and soul-walls begin to fall, and emotions begin to rise. Against all odds, love finds its way between sword fights and shattered skies. But can love survive when fate itself seems determined to pull them apart? Will Arianna learn to control the power that she was destined to? Can Travis protect her from the darkness? Step into a world of royalty, elemental magic, forbidden love, and war that tests the very limits of loyalty. Because in Enchancia, nothing is ever what it seems. And sometimes, love is the most dangerous magic of all.הושלם
Veiled in Light and Ruin
Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.
