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.

Fifth Month— Dava, Day 24

The day was relatively early when Daevi Baddenkur arrived at Light Tower Palace in a carriage sporting the Sigil of her House. 

It was not a conspicuous arrival, and nobody had paid much attention to it, but as soon as she arrived, a eunuch whisked her off to visit the Su'Adrit's shared office with Cera Dionar Sarivi.

Ra'ni Baddenkur was feeling jittery, and her hands clenched into fists under her sleeves as she followed the eunuch. 

Daevi Baddenkur was not very old, but she knew quite well that being summoned to the palace alone was not a good thing for her. 

In a place where people did not hesitate to devour each other for power, she was being sent in alone, and it had not been long but her father's warning was still ringing clearly in her ears. 

Win the Su'Adrit's favour and gain a foothold in the palace. That should not have been too difficult to do, right?
