The Dethroned Monarch

A great monarch is not one without flaws, but rather they are those who recognize their shortcomings and continually refine them, turning their flaws into strengths. Such were the principles that Ysabel's mother taught her. However, the very woman had killed herself when her flaws brought her to stand before judgment. Wounded by her mother's betrayal to the crown and their people, Ysabel was stripped of her title and dethroned on the very day she was ready to confess her love to Prince Hinrik. Exiled to live the rest of her life outside the kingdom, Ysabel met a mysterious stranger who gave her a second chance to fix what had gone wrong. Accepting the offer, Ysabel found herself waking up several days before her coronation as the new Queen of Eyeris. Determined to discover the mystery behind her mother's death, Ysabel knew changes were bound to be made. No longer posing as the kind-hearted monarch, Ysabel met Prince Hinrik, the man she had fallen in love with in her previous life. Dead-set on never repeating the same mistakes, Ysabel distanced herself from the dashing Prince. Yet, how long would she be able to resist him when he was living within her reach? -- DISCLAIMER: Cover is not mine

"Things are never quite scary when you've got a best friend."

Ysabel barged into her bedchamber. Her heartbeat skyrocketed as she found that Prince Hinrik wasn't exaggerating. 

"Reis," Ysabel greeted. Reis spun and curtsied. A myriad of emotions had Ysabel hesitate on how to proceed next. But in the end, she came toward Reis and pulled her in a tight hug. "Thank the gods you're alright."

"Your highness," Reis sounded like she was going to sob. Ysabel pulled away and smiled at the palace maid. 

"Is something the matter?" Reis inquired. Her eyes grew animatedly wide as she looked at Ysabel, concern evident in them. 

The news about the quests must have reached her ears. But that wasn't what was troubling the young monarch. 

'She was supposed to be in Bezmun, away from Simeon.' Ysabel thought bitterly. 'This is all my fault.'
