"You may kiss the bride," proclaimed the officiant.
Nia froze, panicked. She had never been kissed before! Sensing her unease, King Kiyoshi gently tilted her chin upward. His eyes were cold and yet she found herself trusting him despite her misgivings. His lips brushed against hers, soft and tentative at first, then with growing confidence. His kiss was not demanding or forceful, but rather a tender exploration of her mouth.
It sent a shiver through her body, making her heart race and her cheeks flush with heat.
As they turned to face their kingdoms, cheers erupted, both within the hall and from the masses gathered outside. Though nervous for what was to come, Nia could not help but feel a sense of elation.
She was the Queen of Ivamis, and her husband was the most powerful king in the land. The weight of their responsibilities was not lost on her, but she also knew that they would face these challenges together...hopefully.

In the kingdoms of Niameda, Althea, and Ivamis, trade ships are mysteriously vanishing without a trace. When Kazi, the fierce General of Niameda and sister to Queen Nia of Ivamis, risks her life to save the King of Althea from an assassination attempt, he offers her an unthinkable reward - marriage to his arrogant second son, Prince Azreal.
Repulsed by the idea of being bound to a man in a society that demands female submission, Kazi hatches a daring plan. She disguises herself as a male guard to infiltrate Althea's royal family and investigate the missing trade ships from the inside. However, her deception takes an unexpected turn when she is assigned as Prince Azreal's personal guard.
As the charming yet infuriating Prince slowly breaks down Kazi's defenses, an undeniable attraction begins to simmer between them. But their growing feelings are built on a foundation of lies. Prince Azreal believes his guard is a man, while Kazi hides her true identity and motive for being in Althea. Tensions mount further as romantic rivals pursue Kazi, unaware of her disguise.
In a race against time to uncover the truth behind the vanishing ships before it shatters the fragile peace between kingdoms, Kazi realizes the enemy may be close. Can a relationship born from deception survive? And will she unmask the real culprit before all three kingdoms are consumed by tragedy?
Volume 3: Whispers Of Desires: A Sense Of Courage
Adanna, a plus-size woman of 27 and the third of her family's daughters, fears the inevitable label of spinster as she remains unmarried. Frustrated with her lack of prospects, she decides to take her search for a husband into her own hands.
After one attempt ends in disappointment, a friend suggests a bold alternative: a journey to another kingdom, where a competition for a Duke's hand awaits. But this isn't just any kingdom-it's Aerionia, a realm of griffin riders.
Accompanied by Princess Serena, sister of King Kiyoshi, Adanna ventures to compete, only to find herself caught up in more than courtly games. A mysterious series of threats and the Duke's father's sudden disappearance cast a shadow over the contest. Will Adanna find the love she seeks, or will danger eclipse her dreams?
πΏππ πΆππππππ ππ πΉππππππ - a small human kingdom surrounded by mythical creatures, both beautiful and terrifying. The people of Niameda lived in constant fear, always on edge, their lives a delicate balance between peace and chaos. The king, a wise and fair ruler, had managed to keep the peace for most of his reign.
For many years they had survived in this dangerous land, but now only fifty thousand people remained. The humans fiercely defended their land, determined to keep their ancestral home against the supernatural attack. But they knew they could not last much longer on their own.
Not with the sinister Kingdom of Rorvik to the north, home to an army three times the size of Niameda's. And to the south, there was the mysterious Kingdom of Umbris, with its one hundred and fifty thousand people. Rumours swirled about the strange alliances that Umbris had forged with creatures such as dragons and shapeshifters.
The king, King Madoc, was a wise and fair ruler, but even he knew that their time was running out. He had tried to negotiate with the leaders of Rorvik, offering them land, wealth, and even his daughter's hand in marriage, but the brutal ruler, King Morgrim, had only laughed in his face. As if sensing the desperation in the human kingdom, the other races that surrounded them grew bolder, pressing their attacks, testing the limits of Niameda's defences. Niameda stood surrounded and outmatched.
