“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

"You can open your eyes now," Killian said as soon as he landed on the balcony of their room a moment ago but Amelia still clung to him. He quite liked it and contemplated staying with her like this until she realized it. "Any time I want you to cling to me I should just fly you around."

"Why didn't I suggest the carriage? Why would I make you fly?" Amelia asked, shakingly getting out of Killian's arms. The moment his feet left the ground she closed her eyes and held onto his shirt as much as she could. The fear of falling was not something she could escape. "I am not doing this again."

"You resemble a cat after being tossed in the water," Killian said as he watched her walk.

"A cat tossed in water? I am not even going to assume it was anyone but you who has tossed a cat in water for your own enjoyment."

"It was not me. I simply watched it happen," Killian replied, recalling the trembling creature.
