Melina Lore

Marked by the Ruthless Princess

In her previous life, Lina Riley harbored an unrequited love for the Fifth Princess, Victoria Ashwood. Lina sacrificed everything for her—securing her place on the throne, protecting her borders, and losing her arm and sight in the process. Yet, her loyalty was repaid with a goblet of poisoned wine and the execution of her entire family. Victoria despised her, accusing Lina of cruelty and of orchestrating her elder sister’s death, deeming her unworthy of love. When the poison took effect, Lina closed her eyes in despair, only to awaken back in the moment they first met. On that fateful day, Lina had stumbled upon Victoria being beaten by palace maids, an encounter that set everything in motion. This time, Lina turned away, choosing a different path, but a faint fragrance of plum blossoms lured her in. One reckless night led to a moment of despair when she awoke to find the coldly beautiful face of her bedmate—Lucille Everard, the Princess Regent. Lucille, while outwardly uninterested in court affairs, was notorious for her swift and decisive actions that had seen emperors replaced with alarming frequency. Compared to Lucille’s power, Lina’s past dealings with Victoria seemed like mere child's play. As Lucille stirred awake, Lina's nerves were frayed. “Given the circumstances, Your Highness, what do you think of me now?” she asked, resigned to her fate. To her surprise, Lucille chuckled softly. “I think you’re wonderful.” Stunned, Lina could only manage a confused “Huh?” From that moment, everything veered off course. Lucille's palace soon bloomed with roses—Lina’s favorite. Amidst the swaying blossoms, the resolute Princess Regent would gently take Lina’s hand, her once-frigid gaze warm and tender. “My dear Lina, you are the finest woman in the world.” In her new life, Lina often dreamed. She dreamt of someone leaving a bouquet of roses at her grave, their robes trailing the light fragrance of plum blossoms. They sipped wine with a wry smile, murmuring, “Silly girl, I avenged you.” Victoria Ashwood was reborn too. She hadn’t expected that killing Lina would provoke her aunt’s ruthless revenge. Determined to avoid a similar fate, she resolved to feign affection for Lina, even if it took a lifetime. At a palace banquet, Victoria was taken aback by Lina’s beauty. Draped in fine silks, Lina was a dazzling sight, so different from the weathered woman Victoria remembered. Drawn to her, Victoria was about to approach when she noticed Lucille at Lina’s side, gently wiping her lips with a soft smile. “Take it slow,” Lucille murmured. Lina paused, then chuckled as she adjusted a strand of Lucille’s hair. Victoria’s heart twisted in fury. When her desperate attempts to win Lina back failed, she demanded, “Why won’t you love me?” Lina sneered. “Show some respect, Fifth Princess. You should address me as Aunt. Besides, your hypocrisy and cold-heartedness make you unworthy of love.” Years ago, a young Lucille Everard encountered a lost girl in the palace gardens. The girl declared that Lucille was beautiful and promised to marry her one day. Thirteen years later, a fateful misunderstanding during a bout of poisoning entwined their paths. What began as teasing quickly turned Lucille from a hunter into prey, helplessly ensnared by the woman she never forgot. Tags: 1.

THE ALPHA’S BLIND MATE

Fifteen years ago, Damien Blackwood made a vow he would carry with him forever: the girl who saved his life, Ariana Grey, would one day be his mate. She had risked everything to rescue him from the flames of a raging fire, sacrificing her own sight in the process. For six months, they had lived together in the wilderness, surviving on each other’s strength and forming an unbreakable bond. It was during that time, while they fought against the odds, that Damien swore he would protect her for the rest of his days. But when his father, Alpha Reginald, found them, Damien was ripped from Ariana’s side. His father, with threats of violence against his family, made it clear that she was not to be brought back into his life. Now, Damien stands on the cusp of becoming the next Alpha, the weight of the pack’s future resting on his shoulders. But Reginald imposes one final condition for Damien to claim his rightful place: he must find a mate. His heart, however, still clings to Ariana—the woman he’s been searching for relentlessly for over a decade. During a solitary journey into the wilderness, Damien finally senses his mate. But when he finds her, he is bitterly disappointed. The woman before him is not Ariana. She is Melina, a blind girl and the daughter of a pack servant, and yet, her presence haunts him, reminding him too much of the lost woman he once loved. Consumed with guilt and bitterness, Damien rejects her without hesitation. What Damien doesn't know is that the woman he’s just cast aside is Ariana herself, living under a new identity, blind and unrecognized. Though she has always loved him, the pain of his rejection is too much to bear. As time passes, Damien’s cruelty escalates, culminating in him framing her for the murder of his own mother after witnessing his father commit the crime. Unbeknownst to him, Ariana is carrying his child. Banished and imprisoned, she endures years of suffering while Damien becomes the Alpha, haunted by the regret of his actions. But when Damien discovers that his father never sought out Ariana and has been manipulating him all along, his guilt turns to rage, and he nearly kills Reginald, leaving him in a coma. Haunted by the truth, Damien realizes that the blind girl he wronged was, in fact, Ariana. Rushing to free her from her prison, he finds a heart broken beyond repair, hardened by the pain of his betrayal.
