Rhaenyra Escapes King'S Landing

The Leper King's Healer

After a tragic accident that sent her back 845 years in time to the year 1177, in the Middle Ages, during the reign of Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, Kate Mitchell, a wealthy business tycoon in the pharmaceutical industry, a gifted ex-military, a pharmacologist and botanist, and a brilliant archer from 2022, wakes up as Lady Philippa, a pretty, innocent, frail, and proper young lady of House Antioch, with whom she shares nothing in common. She realised she had died on that day, and her soul travels back in time and takes over the body of Philippa, a helpless lady who would face tragedy, betrayal, and scandal before dying young and heartbroken. She chose to live as Philippa because she had a second chance at life and only one goal in mind: to live and survive at any cost. To succeed, she must thrive and learn to live in the Medieval era, where nothing is common for her, and, above all, she must avoid an arranged marriage, which will doom Phillipa to death after a terrible heartbreak. Lady Philippa, unfortunately, is about to be engaged to an unknown man, and she must devise a plan to prevent this from happening. Kate's background as an ex-military officer, pharmacologist, and botanist, as well as her limited knowledge of history, will be invaluable in surviving the historical mediaeval times when modern technology was out of reach. However, she requires the assistance of the reigning king, Baldwin IV, who is suffering from leprosy at the time. She'll have to take control of the situation. It is up to Kate's bravery and intelligence to find a way to persuade Baldwin IV to help her, and she has few options other than joining his royal court. Will the king accept her, or will she perish as the body's original owner? Will she be able to change her destiny? Alternatively, will she be able to find the love and family she seeks?

The King's Royal Maid

Orphaned maid Delma has silently served in the royal household for many months, hiding her dazzling good looks under plain clothes and a wig. Her goal is straightforward-to remain invisible and not be tied down with complications of the palace. But it all changes when King Luis comes upon her while she is bathing in the river and becomes instantly smitten by her beauty. What starts as a passing attraction soon becomes an all-consuming obsession, and Delma is left reeling with the king's advances, pulling her deeper into his world. Forced to become the king's personal maid, Delma struggles to resist his magnetic pull, even as he makes it clear that he considers her his alone. She attempts to discourage him from his enthusiasm, hoping that his passion will wane away; instead, every hour makes Luis more possessive. Queen Alicia becomes suspicious of her husband behaving strangely and feels his closeness an ache of a knife. The queen, however, reassures herself by her father's advice: in order for her to secure her place, she should give the king an heir. Thus, she starts making her own plans to get the affections of the king again, even if this would involve desperate measures. As the tension builds, Delma becomes embroiled in a web of palace intrigue, jealousy, and power play. The plotting of the queen, the relentless pursuit by the king, and the cruel gossip of the maids threaten to overwhelm her. While Luis battles his own conflicting feelings-desiring Delma yet conscious of the pain he inflicts-Delma must draw on her last reserves and take up the fight for her freedom and self-determination. But it is hard to run from a king's grasp, especially when hearts and fates are intertwined. In danger from all sides, Delma will have to make a choice: just how far will she go to protect herself, and is the life she dreams of still within her grasp?.
