He is her salvation. She, his demise. Yet, he refuses to let her go…

Mineah, the youngest Princess of Ebodia, was cursed at birth to remain untainted and bring misfortune to those around her. This prophecy looms over her like a dark cloud, growing bigger every year it does not come to pass. 

She exists in hushed rumors as a pitiful figure - fragile, meek, unwanted. Underneath that mask is a strong and feisty vixen worthy of being a queen. And this would-be queen has set her eyes on breaking her curse, even if that means tricking the most cunning vampire ever born. 

Nikolai, though reclusive and enigmatic, is revered by the Kingdom of Valcrez as a wise and powerful ruler. Unbeknownst to his loyal subjects, his image of perfection is a web of lies that if exposed can send their kingdom and everything they hold dear crumbling beneath their feet. 

When these two find their paths crossed in a marriage alliance, the game of Crown's Seduction begins. But just who is the hunter and who is the prey?

Excerpt:
“Why are you stripping naked in front of me?” she questioned with a frown, doing little to hide the irritation in her voice. Her goal was to capture only his heart, not his whole body!

“Am I not allowed to have a bath with my wife?” he remarked with a cold tone. “I purposely asked for a big tub to just make sure that the two of us will fit in it together.”

She sighed, not tearing her gaze away from him as she regained her composure. Seeing him smirk she forced herself to get comfortable as he spoke. 

“That’s more like it. You said it yourself that no one forced you into marrying me. Instead, you offered and volunteered yourself willingly for it, so I expect that you’ll be confident enough to share a bath with your husband,” Nikolai confidently stated. “After all, we’ll do more than this soon enough.”

Shameless… 

Preventing herself from rolling her eyes, she managed to give him a smile as she said, “Don’t blame me if you die on me then.”

The Crown's Seduction

'What is this?" Mineah murmured as she stared at her trembling hands covered in blood clutching the divine dagger.

'It can't be,' terror surged through her body. Was this another premonition of her curse?  Was it Seer Beirut's vision of her stabbing Nikolai with the divine dagger?

Mineah released the dagger she was gripping tightly and watched it fall into the pitch of darkness. She knew this wasn't real, that she was probably inside her dream but her emotions were all over the place.

"No," she shook her head, staring at her bloody hands in disbelief.

Her eyes widened and her lips quivered, hearing Nikolai's low and pained voice. Her heart thudded loudly in her chest as if it would burst out in no time.

'What is going on?' she wondered, rooted to the spot, unable to move. Her eyes remained fixed on her bloodied hands, afraid to look at Nikolai.
