They say her voice was once bewitching to all who heard it. She was like a siren luring sailors to their deaths on quiet nights...
Those are just rumours that once were, truth be told the youngest daughter of the Count was a mute. Her voice had long been lost in her childhood years, disappearing like a whisper in the wind soon to be forgotten.
She too disappeared with it, fading into the background, outshined by her talented siblings. The harder she tried to regain her worth, the more she was ignored.
Until a chance encounter with a stranger changes everything...

omitted heir
She once lived a life of tragedy, a princess scorned, unloved, and betrayed by the very people who should have protected her. The only true royal blood of the kingdom, yet treated as if she were invisible. Her husband fell into the arms of her adopted stepsister, a girl worshipped by the court despite having no royal lineage. A manipulative maid whispered poison into every ear, her own brother cared only for status and applause, and her parents, the king and queen, looked upon her not as their daughter, but as a blemish on their throne. Surrounded by deception, belittled and broken, she lived a life of silent suffering until the day poison ended her story. But fate was not done with her. She awakens in the past, fourteen again, returned to the moment before everything fell apart. This time, she will not be the obedient princess they used as a pawn. This time, she will not be overlooked. With the memories of her cruel future and the pain that once destroyed her, she vows to rewrite her fate, expose their lies, and reclaim the crown that was always meant to be hers. She was the forgotten princess. The erased successor. The omitted heir. And now she has returned.Complete
Crown of Shadows
She is elegant, strong, and carries a past no one knows-a childhood shadowed by loss, heartbreak, and sacrifices that shaped her into a woman both graceful and guarded. He is a prince, cold and untouchable to the world, carrying secrets of his own, a life dictated by duty, rules, and the crown he never chose. When their paths cross, the world outside stops making sense. She doesn't know he's royalty, and he hides behind a mask of distance, but neither can ignore the pull growing between them. In a palace of whispers, hidden agendas, and family intrigues, every glance, every touch, and every unspoken word becomes a battlefield of desire and restraint. As past wounds resurface, old secrets threaten to destroy them, and everyone around them seems to have an opinion about what love should be, can two hearts that have known pain and sacrifice find their way to each other? Or will the shadows of their pasts keep them apart forever? A story of slow-burning romance, royal intrigue, hidden identities, and love that fights its way through every obstacle.
She's A Villainess
A princess in a castle? Or a butcher in a crown? Hadley, the second daughter of the King and Queen of Laz-Isabel - a kingdom of magic and whispered spells - was no ordinary royal. Born of witches, she bloomed into power like a rose with thorns. On her eighteenth birthday, the castle gates opened wide. Music soared. Fireworks lit the sky. Nobles danced and commoners feasted. The kingdom rejoiced... not knowing doom was dressed in green dress. Among the guests was a handsome warlock, cloaked in charm and old magic. They said he was clever. They said he was strong. They said no beauty could undo him. But Hadley wasn't just beauty. She was ruin wrapped in silk. What happened that night? A kiss? A promise? A wedding? No. She slit his throat and smiled. Now, songs are sung of her smile - and prayers whispered in her shadow. For where the Princess walks, misfortune follows, trailing like a ghost in a bloody green gown. To break the curse entwined in her soul, she must bind her fate to a king - one damned by his own sins. He was older. Harsher. As wounded as he was dangerous. His touch burned, and his eyes... they saw through her. One forged by regret. One consumed by wrath. Together, they might rewrite fate - or bend his will to break the curse. Because Hadley was never meant to be the damsel. She was never meant to be the queen. She was meant to be the villainess.

The Forgotten Heir
The palace had been abandoned for centuries. Locals whispered it was cursed. Haunted. Forgotten by time. But when Rosa stepped inside, she felt something different. The walls seemed to breathe. The shadows seemed to watch. And in the silence, a pair of eyes from a faded portrait seemed to know her name. Drawn deeper into its mysteries, Rosa found herself caught between history and something far more unsettling, memories that didn't belong to her, and a love that felt older than time itself. Some places are more than ruins. Some stories are more than legends. And some connections... are impossible to escape.
My dearest Aurelia
They called you a witch. They made you disappear. But your story didn't vanish with the smoke. I never knew you. And yet, I carry your name on my tongue like a secret I was never meant to speak. The lies they told still echo in our forest, in the halls of the castle, in the eyes of those who fear the truth. But I will find it. Piece by piece. Even if it means losing myself along the way. Because if the world dared to silence you, then it's my voice they'll hear next.
