Lissa is in love with a man whose loyalty lies with her father.
The stolen moment together before she left for the union was everything. Cross was told to break it off, or her father would make her life a living hell. He thought he was saving her, but he ended up breaking her more. Now she is back playing games.
And a second contender now enters the picture: Klaus Novak, a pretty boy Russian prince who will do anything for Lissa. She is spiralling, going through different emotions, trying to find a balance. And life is full of tricks.
Small teaser:
"I said a lot of things when I was caught up in it. You're a kid. I got caught up in the idea of you. The princess is slumming it with the help."
The cruelty in his words was so precise, so practiced, it felt like surgery without anesthetic. "But this is real." He tapped his chest. "This life. It's ugly and it's hard and it's mine. You're leaving. You have a whole other world waiting. A better one. This... us... it was a summer thing. It's over."
I did that so her father would not break her spirit but the Union ended up breaking her any way... #badgirl #badboy #mafia #cross #romance #love #spicy #slowburn

Moonlit Thrones: Fated Doom
Some crowns are forged in blood. Some destinies are written in shadows. And some hearts are claimed long before they learn to love.
Princess Eden of Lysoria was never meant to choose her own fate. When she discovers that her life is nothing more than a pawn in her father's ruthless political game, she does the unthinkable. She abandons her crown, her kingdom, and everything she has ever known, fleeing into a world where a single mistake could cost her life.
But freedom comes at a price.
Hunted by the very kingdom she once called home, Eden seeks refuge beyond familiar borders, only to discover that cruelty wears many faces. Amid whispers of war, the suffering of innocents, and secrets buried beneath royal thrones, she begins to question everything she once believed. Her kingdom is not as righteous as she thought, and its enemies may not be the monsters she was taught to fear.
Then there is Aurelian, the Dark King of Drakar.
Ruthless, merciless, and feared by every kingdom that dares speak his name, Aurelian rules through a power few would challenge. He has no patience for naïve idealism, no weakness for misplaced trust, and no intention of allowing anyone to threaten his realm. Yet beneath his cold reign lies a truth even he has not fully understood.
Ancient prophecies do not bend to human pride. Some destinies are sealed before birth, and some promises are made before the hearts they bind ever beat.

An ancient prophecy has tied their fates long before they existed, Prophecies, as it seems, do not bend to human pride. Some destinies are sealed before birth, and some promises are made before the hearts they bind ever beat.
He is supposed to be the king she feared. She is supposed to be the princess he would never love.
Yet, as kingdoms prepare for war and buried truths threaten to shatter everything they know, the most feared king in the world may discover that the one person capable of bringing him to his knees is the very woman fate has destined for his throne.
Because sometimes, the greatest doom is not the fate written for you.
It is the love you were never meant to escape.
And when a king finally kneels, the world will learn that even the darkest throne can belong to a heart that has always been hers.
