Crowned in Shadows.
For years, the kingdom of Velmont has thrived under a false lineage, a history rewritten by blood and betrayal. Kael Veyne was never meant to survive. The massacre that claimed her family should have erased her existence, buried her past beneath the ashes of a forgotten name. Yet, fate had other plans.
Living in the shadows, honing her skills as an archer and assassin, Kael has spent her life surviving, never daring to hope—until a single discovery shatter everything she thought she knew. A lost book, hidden beneath the ruins of the past, whispers the truth: she is the rightful heir to the throne stolen from her family. And her brother, the one she believed lost to time, is still alive.
With nothing but a name and the weight of a stolen crown, Kael embarks on a treacherous journey to uncover the secrets buried beneath deception and war. By her side is Riven Dain, a prince bound by his own burdens, a man of sharp wit, dangerous charm, and a past more entangled with hers than she could have imagined. Together, they must navigate a world of shifting alliances, hidden enemies, and an unseen force that has manipulated the fate of the kingdom for years.
But reclaiming a legacy comes at a cost. As old wounds resurface and forbidden truths come to light, Kael must decide what she is willing to sacrifice for vengeance, justice, and the family she thought she lost. And amidst the chaos, as danger closes in and loyalties are tested, she will have to face the one thing she never prepared for—her own heart.
The past was stolen. The future is uncertain. And in the shadows, the real enemy watches, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
**In a world where memories can be erased and history can be rewritten, some legacies refuse to die.**
