The Rosacea Stain, écrit par ElmaZehraRizvi

They called her the Villain Duchess, a name cemented by rumors of bottomless vanity, malicious indifference, and a love for luxury that bled the Duchy of Rosacea dry. Duchess Edna Rosacea wore the infamy like a silk shroud, until one day she simply shed it. Leaving behind the gilded cage of high society, divorce papers, and her young son, Frederick, to the care of his 'hero' father, Duke Bernard Rosacea, Edna vanished across the ocean. Years later, the scandal is a fading, bitter memory in the distant courts. Edna is now just Edna, a woman of calloused hands and sun-dusted peace, nurturing a thriving farm business. She has built a quiet sanctuary, certain the suffocating life of the aristocracy could never touch her again. But sanctuary is a fragile thing. The past, like an old, relentless ghost, finally finds her door. One brisk afternoon, a knock shatters the silence, and standing on her worn porch is the one man who still carries the scent of her former life: Bernard. He has not come for a reconciliation of hearts, but for a desperate appeal that threatens to drag Edna back into the very world she risked everything to escape.

In the quiet shadows of the palace, they shared something soft, something sacred... until the world outside tore it apart. Now, Selena lives a quiet life in the town no one of importance ever visits, raising her son with careful hands and a guarded heart. She asks for nothing. Expects even less. The boy she bore is hers alone, and she intends to keep it that way. But when the newly crowned king returns and their paths cross once more, old feelings begin to stir-and buried truths rise to the surface. Alexander is back... not just in her world, but dangerously close to the one secret that binds them forever. He wants to know his son. He wants to understand what he lost. But after everything he left behind... will she let him in? A story of first love, betrayal, and the slow, aching journey back to one another-where the cost of silence may be the only thing keeping them apart.
