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.

Seventh Month— Barthen, Day 12

Verinia glided through the halls of Light Tower, and a dead silence seemed to fill the atmosphere as the faithful shadow of her protector followed along behind her with soundless footsteps, clutching the hilt of his sword tightly. 

The faces of them both were expressionless, one more than the other. Sur Ka'iser glanced at his mistress as discreetly as he could manage from time to time, and nervousness could be seen in that fleeting look. 

It was like he was terrified that she would vanish into thin air, or worse, be assassinated, if he wasn't looking at her constantly. 

It wasn't that the First Princess didn't know, it was that she couldn't be bothered to dissuade him from looking.
