Juujuu_Sky
Avyanna does not even know she is a born princess. The only one who holds such a secret is the woman she calls 'mother'. Not even her father knew of her existence, and her real mother, Queen Violet, only had a glimpse of her before she breathed her last. King Gartner of Dancrest, a pure blooded witch, having been poisoned inside and out with greed and selfishness to have the world at his feet, had crossed his limits in the eyes of the sacred oracle, and for that, he was punished to have a full human with his human queen. Seeing it as a curse and highly chagrined by the news, he decided to kill his wife with the unborn child to impede this punishment or curse whatsoever. Under the cover of a night of thunderstorms, Queen Violet absconded with her handmaid, Cora, where she gave birth and handed her princess over to her maid, making her vow to protect her princess and not reveal her identity, before she closed her eyes. Forever. But fate does wonders by leading Cora and little princess Avyanna to the kingdom of the prince whom the little one was destined to marry. And this same prince was destined to end her father's reign. _____ Enjoy my first fantasy work, and do check out my other book. Cover edited by Gabs Initiative @facebook: Gabs Initiative.

The Contract With Her Father's Billionaire Rival

[Mature Content:] Alaric was too close to Nicolette. Her mouth was just inches away from his. He could smell the lavender on her skin, the heat radiating from within her. But he held back, refusing to be carried away by her charm… “Mr. Allens…” she purred, and he looked down at her. Her eyes widened with desire, and he knew, in that moment, that if he wanted to kiss her, she would let him. The last thing he wanted was commitment. He knew that Nicolette didn’t want that either. But why was she this tempting? So willing? It was that willingness that confused him. She blinked, then swallowed as she pulled the jacket off her shoulders. His eyes lingered on her exposed neck. God. He just wanted to bury his mouth in that hollow spot. “Here,” Nicolette said calmly, extending the jacket to him. He took the jacket, his hand brushing hers just a second. She flinched, her face turning pink as she clutched the towel against her chest. His stomach flipped at the sight. If only that towel would give way to… Before he could stop himself, Alaric pressed his arousal against her stomach, pushing her against the wall, cornering her. She gasped at the sudden movement and for a moment, he lost his mind. “Cole…” he breathed, crushing himself against her. Her eyes gleamed with desire and a vulnerability that rocked him to his core. He would be foolish not to give in to this feeling. But he would also be a fool if he did. She had chosen to marry him. Not her boyfriend. And definitely not Lucian Crawford.
