The Death of a Tyrant's Concubine

I died on the night he crowned another woman his queen. While they celebrated, bathed in the adoration of their subjects, I took my last breath alone in the cold, abandoned wing of the palace, clutching a small, lifeless fox. The fox had been his promise to me. Back when he had nothing, he'd sworn that one day he would give me a crown and a kingdom. I stood by him, from a disinherited prince of a fallen kingdom to the emperor who united the fractured lands. But when he finally ascended the throne, he chose another to be his queen. He gave her the most magnificent crown, the most lavish gowns. He let her snatch my little fox, my only companion, and have it skinned for a muff. "I'll get you another one," he'd said, as if it were nothing. He didn't know. I was already gone. Author's Note: I post a new chapter almost every single day!

I am Dragomira Ivanovna. Let me tell you the story of how I became a vampire queen. Listen carefully. It is full of twists and turns, love, hate and secrets. Find out whose blood will be spilled and who will survive. "Hearts are wild creatures, that's why our ribs are cages." (Morticia Addams) Dragomira grew up in poverty. Brought into the shining lights of the royal court. She learned to crave power. And was forced to marry the cruel king everybody fears. Stuck between two men, brothers. Between the decision to save herself or her family. Between her desire to run away or to take the crown. Her mind fights the heart. And maybe she doesn't know who she is anymore and what she wants, because her present mingles with the past. And so, trying to escape her fate, she is once again thrown into the maelstrom of court intrigues and drawn into a plot to kill the king. Whose heart will be broken? Who will die? And who will sit on the throne? ___FIRST_DRAFT___ ♥ 12.04. 2025 - #4 in Highfantasy ♥ 16.04. 2025 - #3 in Highfantasy ♥ 25.06. 2025 - #2 in Darkfantasyromance

[IN NEED OF SERIOUS EDITING] This is a dual POV book. Sneak peek ;) "What are you doing here Ace?" I whispered. He took a step towards me. My breath hitched. "Victoria, you really thought I would let you get away with everything you planned? Just because your rotten little family died? God you people are so oblivious." I took a step back; his words were drenched in venom. "B-but... y-you...I" I choked on my own words. "Oh please, you really thought I was in love with you? It was my plan all along. To get into your pity group, find out your backstories, fall in love with you, find out your master plan and destroy it." Tears pricked my eyes, but I wouldn't let them fall. I wouldn't let him see me suffer. I wouldn't. Before I could process anything that had just come out of his mouth, he lunged at me.

But when the Crown summons her family to the capital, she finds herself forced into a deadly game of politics, power, and temptation. The Crown Prince, Kael, is as dangerous as he is mesmerizing, his golden eyes see too much, his touch burns too deep, and his intentions blur the line between protection and possession.

Between a prince who cages her with fire and a phantom who claims her in darkness, Seraphina must decide where her loyalty, and her heart truly lies. And in Aurelius, love is just another battlefield. --- 🩸A dark fantasy romance where love is dangerous, power is bloody, and every choice can destroy a kingdom. Read now. But beware, no one escapes unscathed. Hello there! This is my first attempt at writing something, so please bear with me-I'm a bit sloppy when it comes to endings. You might find this story familiar if you're a fan of manhwa. That's no coincidence! This story is inspired by a dream I had after reading a typical romance manhwa (though I can't quite remember which one). All the double gaps means some time delay or skip. I hope you enjoy this little slice of my imagination! 💭✨ This was a one shot in one of my old account (which is not working unfortunately)

~ COMPLETE AND NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON ~ In the Five Kingdoms of Saol Eile, magic is the only currency and those who have the most cast long shadows across the land. Amidst lavish parties, sumptuous banquets, and sprawling castles, despicable tyrants have risen, calling themselves kings by right; emperors, by the laws of old magic, and monarchs, by the wealth they've procured. When it's rumored that an army of flesh-eating monsters has risen from the shadows, tyrant-kings are forced to submit to a far more dangerous power - the sorcerer standing at the head of it all: The Cursed One. Orphaned and penniless, eighteen-year-old Cecily Trask's magic has always been reluctant to emerge. But with the kingdoms at the brink of war, she vows to do whatever it takes to keep her people safe-even if it means breaking all the rules, reaching into the depths of her soul to unravel the bindings around her true power, and allying with the potentially dangerous prince, Daire Niadh, to do it. In a landscape thick with mistrust, desire, and incipient hope, Cecily and Daire cross paths in an unfamiliar world forever changed by violent forces neither of them understand. They should hate each other. They should want each other dead. But their grief both draws them together and breaks them down, until all they have left is their shared goal - to defeat The Cursed One, even though for Cecily, the journey means almost certain death. ❧ Copyright © Marcella Colavecchio, 2014 - 2020.

Love is a fragile thing. It can be nurtured, like a delicate flower in spring, blossoming under warmth and care. Or it can be neglected, left to wither under the weight of indifference until nothing remains but dust and regret. This is the story of a love that was once whole, then broken, then lost entirely. A love that burned brightly in the heart of a Queen-so deeply, so fiercely, that it consumed her. And a love that the Emperor never recognized until it was too late. She loved him. More than she should have. More than he deserved. She had given him her loyalty, her devotion, her very soul. And in return, he had given her nothing. Not his trust. Not his protection. Not even his mercy. Her love for him had died long before her body did. If fate ever gave her another chance, she would never love him again. But fate is cruel. Death was not the end. She would return, reborn from the ashes of her suffering. Not as the woman who once waited for his love. Not as the Queen who had begged for his favor. But as someone who would never waste another moment longing for him. This time, it would be his turn to burn.

He barely believed in living. Most days were spent in silence - a numb, gray existence made of sleepless nights, empty mornings, and a constant ache he couldn't shake. People called him cold. Emotionless. Maybe they were right. Then he met Viara. She was a stranger at a convenience store on a rainy night - two dollars short and smiling like she had no reason to be. Ren gave her the money. She gave him something far more dangerous: a reason to feel again. What started as curiosity became obsession. Every glance, every word, every secret he uncovered about her pulled him deeper. Soon, Ren wasn't just watching from the shadows - he was protecting her, perfecting himself for her, and removing anyone who dared to get in the way. Love made him better. Love made him worse. Because when you put her before you, there's nothing you won't do. Even if it means blood on your hands. Even if she never asked for any of it. Chapters Will Be Added Overtime.

He has watched her die in many lifetimes, each ending more brutal than the last, all because of a curse he cannot break - and a love he was cursed to never forget. But when the world fractures and destiny shifts, the woman he saves is not the goddess he remembers. None of her predecessors were, yet she too was sentenced to death by capricious fate. In a land of gods and monsters, where memory twists and fate is a deadly weapon, death may be the only escape.
