battle betrayal bloodshed cinclair deceit deception hate kill king lies love mask murder passion princess queen romance royalty slave war

What can a slave girl do when she's but a pawn in a game of kings? Sent to infiltrate the enemy kingdom as the new bride of the King of Palandyre, Cinclair has only one goal in mind: the prize is her freedom, the price is his life, and the task is murder.

But the man she must kill ignites in her a fire she cannot quench, sends her blood racing with the first flash of his grin and the tilt of his brow, and it feels like a dagger in her gut to see him falling for a mask she wears and the lies she's spun, because one more day his passion grows means one less day that he may live. As stakes climb higher and the war drums pound louder outside the castle walls, the hour of his death draws unforgivably near.

But the heart cannot kill what the heart beats for... and her heart beats for his.

Marriages never last, especially with royalty and power. Being preferably selected from the huddles of women in her town, Nadia learns how quickly you must change yourself to fit the profile of a true, future queen. Finding it hard to even want to be married into a society like that she lives in, she and her future husband, Adrik, agree to divorce quickly after marriage.

How could that be possible, when a man she soon learns to love walks the halls of the royal manor?

The Ember Within by FathimaFaheen

"I'm not sure what I want, but when I do, I'll move mountains to get it. My desires aren't tethered to anyone else; they're solely about me. Sometimes, even the most delicate things can seem dangerous but these things are too fragile to be counted. I can choose him, but this fragile choice could ruin me or my cause, and I can't afford that, even if it means the end of my life. But the sight of him takes my breath away. I've met countless men in my nineteen years, but why is he different? Why is he the one whose gaze makes my heart, Calista's heart of iron, beat? " Scarlet the elusive leader of the Rebel, has dedicated her life to overthrowing King Edward's tyrannical rule over Redelvrid. For years, she has inspired her people to fight for justice and freedom, using fear and intimidation to keep the king in check. But when she unexpectedly discovers that the person she's been looking out as her only family for years is a target of her rebellion, her world is shattered. As Scarlet navigates this moral dilemma, she is confronted with new challenges and threats. Dark magic is being used against her people, and her comrades are falling victim to mysterious deaths. Now the question that arises is will she continue to pursue her goals, knowing it means eradicating the person who has always been her anchor? Or will she abandon her cause ?

Winter's Dance (#1 Ruthen Quartet) by firedance_icesong

(Completed) Two assassins were set to kill a girl. No questions asked. Just kill her and claim their prize. That was their mission. Except one of them was not supposed to visit Volney, the land of the dead and the other fall in love with a girl and totally forget about his mission to kill. For an heir who had dedicated her entire life for her kingdom, fate was not kind. Her sister should have returned home after her visit to her aunt's place. Her kingdom must have been safe, both terrestrial and by sea. But does anything ever goes planned? As a general, she must now decide. Kingdom or family? Suffice to say, slavery was the safest option for a bride. Hated by the king's daughter, she wonders what she had ever done in her life to deserve her hate. With her friend of fifteen years gone to join the rebellion, and without realising what it would cost her, she makes new friends. But would they keep her alive? Or would they sell her for their life? Friendships will be tested. Foes will become allies. Hunted will become the Hunter. And lover will become the betrayer. Not edited! Cover made by @Shadowsleek

Bleeding Hearts by bbllaacckkaangel

"I take what I want, princess, no matter what." TRUTH is hidden behind the LIES. Secrets are buried within the secrets. Darkness lurks in the Light and Light breathes in the Darkness. A tale of "BLOOD, SACRIFICES, AND OATH" What will be the outcome when their worlds collide? Will they be each other's salvation or each other's demise? My works are the outcome of my wild and roller-coaster crazy imagination that I nurtured with dedication and great love. Cheap liberalism and unwanted feminism are neither appreciated here nor wanted. So, if you have some self-esteem issues then take it elsewhere because I will report and block every negative comment and commentator. I hold all the rights under my name and by all laws. So think before trying to copy/paste and plagiarism. Cheating doesn't sit well with me and I am not generous with forgiveness. Happy Reading :)

Burning Red Of Wrath - ✨🪭 by remysolmoon

Ivaan's eyes narrowed, looking at the kit in his hand "Perhaps, I should... just maybe.......... listen to you" he murmured, " but what can I say.......I prefer tending to wounds that cut deeper than flesh." Indu stood her ground. "You're trying to own others. People aren't supposed to be won; they're to be cared for and respected if you genuinely wish to keep them by your side." Ivaan's lips curved into a dangerous smile. He leaned in, their faces mere inches apart. His eyes bore into hers, a silent challenge suffocating her as she was unclear of his intention "Yet, I'm the one who won-whether its the war or.............. .......you." _______ He was a prince who had lost his heart. She was a princess who had a heart of gold. The cruel fate forced them together. But what started as a nightmare could it turn into a dream? This is not just a love story but a story of war..... The war was a game, where love, betrayal, and deception were as common as swords, arrows, and fire. Each player sought to outwit, outplay, and outlast the others, using various tactics and strategies, such as alliances, marriages, assassinations, sieges, battles, and plots. But in the end, there could be only one winner, and the price of failure was death. ✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦✦ A Single Tear drop left her Eye when she was standing there still. Head still high with pride. She had a decision to make before it was too late. She Looked at his Face with disgust filling her, looking at his face. She lowered her eyes. Closing them.

She swore to herself, she'd make him pay. She had to choose between her family her people and her freedom. He had to choose between his throne and his heart.

Whilst there are six months avaliable with which to get to know his ten possible fiancees, Gavrila is determined spend as little time as possible away from the front lines, eager to return to the fight and win the war. Yet it seems the front lines may be harder and harder to return to, with the threat of rebellion and a much bigger fight call him to his father's side, whilst a girl who barely deserves a place in his season is tugging at the strings of his heart. For a cover like mine, please go talk to @subconscious_bitch. She made this one and that of the sequel with incredible accuracy and real professionalism. She seems like a really nice human as well :)

A Love To Die For by fallenangel_heaven

What happens when a young woman, cursed with the tragic fate that every man she fells in love with dies, falls hard for a childhood friend? "Forget me... just leave me alone . I can't love you...you'll die because of me," she sobbed, her voice trembling as she burried her face in her hands, trying to hide the tears. He moved her hands from her face, his touch gentle yet firm. As her tear-stained cheeks were revealed, he held her chin, lifting it so her eyes met his. His gaze, filled with deep affection and quite determination, locked onto hers. He cupped her face "i'd rather die than live a single day without your love," he whispered his voice low but resolute. "Don't push me away, because the only way i'd ever die is if you tell me you don't love me."
