“All I desire is a husband who can sit pretty on the throne beside me and keep his mouth shut while I rule. You don’t fit the criteria, Killian. I am not looking for a warrior.”

“When the men at court point their swords at your neck princess, you’ll need a warrior by your side instead of a puppet. You won’t be able to get rid of me so easily Amelia. Not when I have made up my mind to have you.”

“I am not something for you to simply have Killian.”

“Aren’t you? The men out there seem to be putting a good price on your future. Become my wife and I will become your weapon. I will make sure this throne belongs to you.”

…

Fancy tiaras and dresses never interested Amelia Blackwell, current princess of the Backwell castle. It had always been the throne in the middle of the court that caught her eyes. The throne was the only thing she ever desired but the men in her life reminded her of how it would never belong to a princess. 

When talks of her marriage flood the castle and news that her father wishes to make her cousin Fraser Adams his heir, Amelia takes matters into her own hands. She sets off to find her own husband and plots to take the throne.

Meeting the king of the north Killian Bune doesn’t make her life any easier. Along her way she finds love, betrayal, death, envy, and more as she tries to become queen. 

“I promise you, this throne will belong to me.”

The Throne Is Mine

"Now that we have all enjoyed this pleasant conversation, Cyrus, please come inside and get rid of the spider before it disappears," Amelia practically pulled Cyrus inside of her bedroom and slammed the door shut. "That was annoying," she sighed.

"Thank you but I'm afraid you've pissed him off more by mentioning his daughter."

"I don't care. I would love to know why he was so close to my room when there is no business for him on this side of the castle. Why is he even here? Doesn't he have a home? I'd hate to find out my father has his followers living in the castle now," said Amelia.

"There is something important we need to discuss. I've been down to the dungeon and spoke with the northerners your father captured. They are too quiet as if they are waiting for something, Amelia. I promise you those men are skilled enough to escape. Why did you return from town so soon? Did you see anything?" Cyrus had to know as her answer would change everything.
