The BloodStone Harem
Empress Yanelis Kalino is feared and revered by many. She is strong willed, smart, clever, and a master with weapons. Being both deadly in skills and in looks, she has the world practically laid out before her. And now, an heir is in order. She finds herself sending a request to have a Prince from the Kingdom of Phasikar, uniting it to her Empire of Kuxecaea. The smaller kingdom isn’t something she worries about, but will offer her protection so long as a decent prince is offered. However, she doesn’t necessarily rush into anything, and finds some interesting things about her new husband, including him being an illegitimate child of the King Diarmait Crandomna. When she makes him an offer he couldn’t refuse in exchange for him choosing two suitors for her harem, pleasing her is simply the start of their path for revenge against the Kingdom of Phasikar and all that had dared to betray them.
Excerpt:
“And your wish, state it clearly for all to know.” Yanelis leisurely commands, looking as though she hadn’t a care in the world knowing full well what her Emperor is going to say to her council.
“I, Emperor Asteropaios Crandomna, first of my name and devote spouse to Empress Yanelis Kalino, wish for the Empire of Kuxecaea to conquer the Kingdom of Phasikar.” He states with all of the strength of a true Emperor, a deadly and malicious aura rolling off of him in waves.
“Your Majesties, we must have a justifiable reason to start a war…” Duke Vakhtang Shishman says without thinking before recovering from shock.
“When have I ever needed a reason besides ‘Because I want to’?” Empress Yanelis asks with a huge smile that causes fear to rise in her subjects. With a snap of her fingers, she gives a sharp order. “Whip him twenty times for speaking such nonsense. I expect you to meet us in the war room after, Duke Vakhtang Shishman.” And with that, she rises and leads the way to their war room, pleased with her Emperor for the moment as the sharp crack of a whip is heard.
