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

"Tch," a monarch chuckled as he pulled the reins on the horse he was riding. He was joined by another, entering the woods near the palace of Eyeris. 

"Does she think we're here to play dress-up? Find a ribbon?" the first of the monarchs snickered. 

"Don't underestimate the Princess yet," the second answered. He eyed the first, looking beyond what lay ahead. "Hearsay has it that it may appear petty, but she means business." 

"Do you like her?" the first monarch scoffed. 

The second one hummed, pulling on the reins of his horse as he moved past the first. 

"Maybe," he answered. "Maybe not. I'm not sure, but one thing I could be sure of is this; you better brace yourself. What lies ahead might surprise you. Break a leg! Hyah!"

The monarch that was left behind spat on the ground. He kicked his horse, but the animal neighed instead, suddenly afraid of something.
