The Helio's Bride
A princess with a twisted past. When her fate takes an unfortunate turn, she is thrown off her pedestal and into the web of marriage with the bloodthirsty king of the enemy kingdom. Faced with life and death choices, Delaney must decide whether to side with the enemy—her new husband—or her family who betrayed her. __ As the son of the sun goddess, Darius finds his life unnecessarily long and boring. Until he meets his bride, Delaney, the feisty, fiery princess who is rumored to have rejected suitors by the dozen, the only female descendant of his arch nemesis, and a demon princess. When they get married, will he use her in his quest for revenge, or fall in the trap of her charm like every other male does?
A princess preparing for battle (3)
The battle ended much earlier than anyone ever expected, taking merely three days. According to Darius, fighting against a divided kingdom was easier than drinking water. Axel had an army of his own, and since he had spent ages trying to gain the favor of the people, he was not lacking in supporters when the war broke out.
King Raymond had been taken captive, stripped of his power and Axel had ascended the throne as soon as he could.
In the end, Itrusia had won, having taken Raymond's supporters down in less than a day.
When everything had calmed down, Darius returned to the castle and was greeted enthusiastically by Delaney, who couldn't wait to jump into his arms.
"You are back."
"In one piece, just like you wanted me." He smiled, hugging her. She seemed to realize what she had done but she didn't pull away as fast as she would before. Instead, she took a step back. "Welcome back. Are you hungry?"
