“All I desire is a husband who can sit pretty on the throne beside me and keep his mouth shut while I rule. You don’t fit the criteria, Killian. I am not looking for a warrior.” “When the men at court point their swords at your neck princess, you’ll need a warrior by your side instead of a puppet. You won’t be able to get rid of me so easily Amelia. Not when I have made up my mind to have you.” “I am not something for you to simply have Killian.” “Aren’t you? The men out there seem to be putting a good price on your future. Become my wife and I will become your weapon. I will make sure this throne belongs to you.” … Fancy tiaras and dresses never interested Amelia Blackwell, current princess of the Backwell castle. It had always been the throne in the middle of the court that caught her eyes. The throne was the only thing she ever desired but the men in her life reminded her of how it would never belong to a princess. When talks of her marriage flood the castle and news that her father wishes to make her cousin Fraser Adams his heir, Amelia takes matters into her own hands. She sets off to find her own husband and plots to take the throne. Meeting the king of the north Killian Bune doesn’t make her life any easier. Along her way she finds love, betrayal, death, envy, and more as she tries to become queen. “I promise you, this throne will belong to me.” ... The cover was done by IG r.voh.k
"What are you on about now, child? Your mother was not killed. She got sick and died. I had let you continue to search for evidence that she was killed so that when you came to the realisation that she was just sick, you would let go of this. You cannot continue to push the matter that your mother was killed. Let the woman rest," said Margaret.
Amelia wished her mother was here right now instead of hiding because of what she became. Today was the best day to have those who harmed her mother killed even if it was her grandmother.
"I was by my mother's almost every day. She was always wary about the food and sometimes would not let me eat it. Being queen does not make anyone safe. There are plenty of people in the castle who wanted her dead. Father's mistresses, the men in the court, and you," Amelia said, releasing her dress as she calmed her emotions.
