When powerless, unfavoured Princess Soleia was arranged to marry the newly titled Duke Orion Elsher, she assumed they would find love eventually.
Who knew that her father would send off her husband mere hours later to fight a war?
Soleia was left alone to deal with an impoverished fief, a crumbling estate, and spiteful, vindictive relatives of the Duke who all wished to see her gone.
She couldn’t leave― there was nowhere else to go. Soleia desperately wanted her husband to return so he could offer her a helping hand. However, when he did, he returned with Elowyn, a woman he claimed was his true love.
A woman hellbent on taking her place as the rightful Duchess, no matter what she had to do to get Soleia out of the way.
Mistreated, misunderstood, and miserable, Soleia was eventually thrown out of the estate she helped build.
Fortunately, when one door closes, another one opens. Unknown to Soleia, a man more powerful than her husband had been watching her, waiting for the right time to snatch her into his gilded cage. Duke Elsher had been foolish to let go― but the crown prince of Raxuvia wouldn’t make the same mistake.

Prequel to Stolen by the Rebel King.
For those who have read 'Stolen by the Rebel King', this book is the prequel that happens one generation before the events of SBTRK. While both stories are stand-alone novels (meaning you do not need to read one to understand the other), there will of course be a couple of small spoilers here and there if you read one before the other. It's nothing that will spoil the reading experience, of course, but the dots would just be connected way quicker! For those who have waited for a sequel to SBTRK, so sorry this is late. But hey, better late than never, right? [awkward laughter] As for new readers, hello and welcome! I do hope you'll enjoy this story. While waiting for the updates, feel free to check out SBTRK first. I promise it will be a hell of a ride. ❤️
I love it, an awesome book. I love FL she's so strong, intelligent, and independent. Also, I love the story and enjoying it very much. ML is a bit cheeky, shameless, and funny.
A beautifully written story. There is magic, love, intrigue, betrayal and hatred. I can't wait for the next chapters.
