The Princess of Blood and Time

Verinia Hellfryne has had to do many things to get her way. She’s scheming, manipulative and ruthless! But how could anyone suspect their benevolent First Princess, who has taken on the burden of a substitute queen and raised her three siblings since she was eight years old? It’s unfathomable! But then, when her father brings to the palace his illegitimate son and the son’s mother, she meets her match! How can she face a woman who is as scheming and vicious as she is? How can she prevent her father from giving the throne to his bastard son instead of the legitimate heir? Verinia knows that she must fight to get what she wants, but an unforeseen scheme from the wicked concubine brings a new variable to distort her problems! “You’re a wicked woman, Your Sovereign Highness. Fortunately, I don’t like to play clean.” All her life, Verinia has vowed not to be swayed by men, but this scoundrel is just too smooth! “I’m a married woman!” He smiled. “I’m the prince’s proxy in this wedding. Treat me as such until he returns!” Secrets and schemes, blood and power turn into one big blur to distract from a chilling evil that lurks under the surface. An evil that could destroy the world.

Dava, Day 3 (4)

Verinia pushed the absurd interaction to the back of her mind and quickly forgot about it with her focus on the day's activities. 

Throughout the morning execution and the subsequent hunt, she kept herself close to Kaelbi to offer him some solace. It was clear to see that he wasn't used to the bloodiness of a festive sacrifice.

More than once she had seen Viola Grandpire sending her hateful looks, but whatever that woman saw or suspected in her was none of Verinia's concern. 

She was the Su'Adrit, and Kaelbi had been named the Su'Darath, no matter how abominable such a thing was. It was only natural that they be close. 

Viola had been kept away from her child since they were situated in the palace and chances were that now they would see even less of each other. 

One was bound to stay in the harem and couldn't leave freely without the Sovereign's permission. The other was now the heir to the continent and would be burdened with duties.
