Her Royal Shadow

“She’ll make a fine doppelgänger for my daughter. She can pass as the fake princess. Well done, Dimitri.” The king's words hit Fiona like a physical blow, shattering the illusion of a fairytale. The ballroom, once a place of glittering dreams, now felt like a suffocating trap. He’d bought her. Trained her. Used her. All this time, the stolen glances, the whispered promises, the tender touches—it was a lie. A calculated deception. Her gaze, burning with betrayal, locked onto Dimitri’s. How could he? His eyes, usually warm and reassuring, were now cold and distant, fixed on the king with a chilling intensity. A knot of dread tightened in her stomach. Fiona, a young girl, is sold off to Dimitri, a prince who rejected his title, where she is trained to become a doppelgänger to the cursed princess.

When Fiona finds that her parents were involved, she has to uncover the secrets behind her parents death, the princess curse and her role in all of it. But what happens when Fiona falls in love with both Prince Eric and Dimitri, and things don't go according to plan?

When the Black Maw calls, no one refuses. Elias was born in the slums of Valtaros, where survival is measured in stolen scraps and whispered prayers. But when the Maw chooses him, he is thrust into a trial of blood and madness, where only the strongest—or the most ruthless—survive. Inside the Maw’s twisted realm, Elias quickly learns the truth: mercy is a weakness, trust is a lie, and only power matters. He carves his way forward, eliminating anyone who stands in his path. Yet even as he embraces the Maw’s brutal logic, he cannot escape the one challenger he never expected—Lyara, a warrior whose compassion defies the Maw’s cruelty. She refuses to break. She refuses to let him fall. But when she sacrifices herself to save him, Elias is left with a question that shakes him to his core—was she right? As the final trial begins, Elias must face the deadliest battle yet—not just against the monstrous horrors of the Maw, but against the man he is becoming. And when the Maw finally devours him whole, he will be forced to make the ultimate choice: Will he rise as the Maw’s chosen, a being of pure destruction? Or will he defy fate itself, becoming something the Maw never intended? One way or another, the trial will end. And Elias will never be the same.

I freaking did it the wrong way. I kissed Willem Gale Sullivan. You might think it's not bad. It wouldn't have if he wasn't the Crown prince of Darkey. I kissed the crown prince of Darkey who had a fiancéé. Kill me now.
