STELLAH MARIS

Enemies-to-lovers. Palace intrigue. A woman who was never meant to survive-let alone rule. They called her a maid. They branded her a curse. But fate had other plans. When a blood moon rises over the Empire of Vaeloria, the ancient prophecy stirs-a forgotten empress shall awaken, cloaked in shadow and flame. Lyra, an orphaned servant girl with no name and no past, is dragged to the palace as a human sacrifice to break the empire's dying curse. But the ritual backfires... and marks her instead. Cursed, crowned, and condemned, Lyra becomes the empire's most hated symbol. Worse still, she is bound to Prince Kael-the cold, ruthless warrior heir who vowed never to take a bride. He believes she's a threat to the throne... and he plans to destroy her from the inside out. But Lyra is not the weak girl they expected. Magic pulses beneath her skin. Secrets whisper from her blood. And as war brews beyond the palace walls, a far more dangerous battle begins: The war for her heart. In a kingdom of masks, lies, and betrayal... Can love grow between two enemies, or will the curse devour them both?

Five years. I wasted five years of my life in a damn cell! The reason? For a crime, I didn't even commit! I will always remember that day, that day that changed my life so much. It was my wedding, I was so happy, but someone had to ruin this wonderful time in my life that only lasted a few minutes. The lifeless body of my sister-in-law, Paulina, will forever be etched in my memory. She was so sweet and kind. So why kill her? Why kill such an innocent girl? I was devastated after discovering her lifeless body in my room lying on the floor. There was blood everywhere. Everywhere. But what hurt me the most was that everyone I trusted didn't hesitate to point fingers and call me a murderer. I was devastated. My parents disowned me, my friends turned their backs on me, and my fiancé spat hurtful words in my face that I will never forget. Words that pierced my heart. Words finished me off. I also remember the surprise I wanted to surprise him and my family and friends. However, I lost it after Leo hit me hard. A tear rolled down my cheek thinking back to that night. I had lost everything. All. I was so naive at the time that I didn't see it coming. But all that is over! Yes, it's over! I spent five years of my life surviving in the hell they call prison. I was beaten by many prisoners day and night. And thanks to that, I became stronger! Stronger than I've ever been!
