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

The queen looked baffled. She stared at Ysabel, about ready to reprimand her when the latter caught her gaze and raised her hand before she could say anything. 

"No, mother. This isn't disrespect. What Gwendolyn did is. If you want to know what it was, ask him. If he doesn't tell the truth, the truth will still come out. I have witnesses with me. That's all."

Ysabel curtsied, remembering to be polite. 

"Have a great night."

Ysabel turned to leave. 

A few monarchs who were close enough to hear what had been exchanged whispered and watched as Ysabel exited the grand ballroom. 

Her heart was hammering so hard inside her chest, she was ready to collapse. But she managed to make it outside.

The young monarch looked back, staring at her family whom she left dumbfounded. 

The doors slowly closed them off, letting Ysabel breath. She placed a hand over her heart, her fingers were trembling.
