Where kings kneel to a single man, King Kael Aruzi sits as the iron-handed king of fifty-seven realms. He's feared and respected, and his name with fear. Kael's heart belonged to Seraya his first queen, a orphan with grace who could soothe his rage. Yet, her stubborn womb puts shadows on their union. Pushed by laws and fellow kings, Kael takes another wife-and another, and another, with each giving birth to daughters but none to a boy. Yet, his heart never relinquishes Seraya. But envy's a snake in a silk glove. Eshara, Kael's youngest and deadliest wife, spins a poisoned plot to kill Seraya. A wine piked with drugs. A planned betrayal. A dead guard. In a torrent of rage, Kael banishes Seraya into darkness-to strip her of a crown, to chain her below a palace she once reigned over, to condemn her to a life of agonies. While Seraya is beaten, starved, and scorned, the wives gain power. Eshara becomes heavy with child-with Kael's long-awaited heir. But even as his womb might bear his legacy, Kael's heart remains tormented by the woman he once cherished. The whispers spread. The allegiances come undone. And Seraya-abused but undefeated-conspires against not vengeance, but truth. In a palace where lies bloom like roses and power is sharpened like a blade, Seraya's fall is only the beginning. A storm is rising. And when it breaks, thrones will burn, masks will shatter, and the fire she once knelt before. will be hers to command.

Throne of Flames Chapter 1 - THE FALL

From the ice cliffs of Zarasha to the burning dunes of Taloré, the might of King Kael Aruzi stretched over fifty-seven kingdoms, and every king bent their knee to him. His name was spoken in awe. His presence was like a storm. He was handsome and merciless-from the stars-for one of dominion.

Kael was seven feet tall, his voice could break silence, and his fists could end wars. No man was more powerful than he, and no force is bigger than his army. No woman could ever have him except, an orphaned one.

She hailed from the Vale of Ellah, famous for honey-skinned girls and silent rivers. Seraya was not merely beautiful, she was entrancing.

Her eyes were full of enigmatic power, her voice could easily restrain the angriest person, and her figure resembled a work of art from the most famous sculptors. She became his queen, the most precious jewel of his house. However, five years had gone by and she was still childless. Kael's advisers were not in a mood to sit still.

They became the focus of the oracles' whispered speculations. The kings of the vassal lands were whispering behind their veils. "A king with no heir invites war," they said. Therefore, he got married again. Later more. Until he had five wives.The second wife, Lina, was furious and loud-mouthed. The third, Velira, was of noble descent.

The fourth, Rhana, was charming and crafty. Eshara, the fifth, was the youngest and the most dangerous. They all have given him two daughters each, total being 8. Gorgeous girls with their mothers' charm. Still, the son was missing. Besides that even though Kael tried hard, he loved Seraya most. Only she could appease his anger.

No one else but her could speak to him without fear. Thus, she became an enemy.The fifth wife, Eshara, could not accept the fact. Like Seraya, she had a pretty face, was full of wits, and very seductive and wild. She understood Seraya's quiet smile as an attack against her, the grace of it as a joke. So, she decided to get rid of her.One night, as the royal court gathered for the Feast of Moons, Eshara whispered to Lina, the second wife, and Rhana, the fourth. They were still rivals but the feeling of jealousy is stronger than blood relation, isn't it? They agreed that today will be the day Seraya falls. Eshara'sservant confiscated a small amount of powder and placed it in Seraya's wine.

While the feast was filled with laughter and music, Seraya was no longer able to keep up with the pace. Giddiness consigned her. Her fingers went numb.Take her to her chamber," Eshara said in a sweet tone. "The queen must rest." Lina, with her venomous silence, dispatched a loyal palace guard to sneak into Seraya's chamber after the drug took hold. She then turned to Rhana. "Go. Tell the king. "Let him catch her in the act."

When Kael's war general whispered a word in his ear, during his speech at the high table, he replied, "Your Majesty... there is something you must see. Now." Kael was at a loss as to whether he should indulge his curiosity or remain in ignorance. At the moment Kael stood up, the hall turned silent. None of the revelry sounds were heard, just the tapping of his boots on the marble as he rushed along the corridors of the palace, his cloak following him like a trail of fire.

His jaw was clenched, his eyes burning with suspicion, and his fingers were dangerously close to the hilt of Ul'nor. "Lead the way," he yelled. Rhana trailed behind him, her eyes on the ground to mask her satisfaction. Eshara was at her heels, her heart pounding and already picturing the queen's screams, the king's anger, and the downfall of the only woman who was standing in her way. The royal guards swung open the chamber doors.

The golden doors swung open with a noise made only by a man in a very great rage. Kael did not find the scene in the room what he had pictured. Seraya was sprawled on the silk-covered bed, in her feast clothes, with one arm over her side, and one leg hanging loosely from the mattress.

A golden cup was on the floor, turned upside down, and the wine that spilled from it stained the rug beneath her. The guard, who was shirtless and standing beside the bed, was like a nervous person, breathing hard. Kael's narrowed eyes. "This what?" The tone was full of menace The space felt too small like it was earlier. The banquet noise went away and was now replaced by the pounding of his heart. His gold-ringed fingers moved slightly. The sharp intake of his breath flared his nostrils. "WHAT. IS. THIS?" the loud voice broke the silence.

The guard immediately sank down on his knees. "My king-I beg-listen, I-she-she wasn't-" Kael didn't catch it. His gaze was fixed on the cup that was on the floor. The spilled red wine. Seraya's limbs were loose. The smell of treason that stung his nose was even worse than poison.Behind him, the third and fifth wives-Velira and Eshara-were standing and watching. Heads bowed. Faces calm.

Rhana, who was standing besides his highness, whispered, "It is just as we feared, Your Majesty..." Kael just barely turned his head to hear her words, but it was not enough to cool the storm that was raging behind his eyes. Seraya stirred then. She groaned softly, her brow corrugating because of the confusion. Her hand passed across the silk. She was trying to raise her head, but it was too heavy, so it went down. Her lips moved. "kael?" she whispered.

Kael felt his heart breaking-however, his rage was coming stronger and it was twisting it shut. "YOU DARE to say my name?" His voice was shaking the pillars.Seraya was blinking, attempting to get up. She noticed the guard that was on one knee. The sword that was at Kael's side. The line of guards at the door. She blinked again. "What... what is going on?" Her voice was very low and it was broken. Kael drew out Ul'nor, its dark steel shining under the light of the fire. The guard was screaming and was crawling backward.

"I am not guilty! I swear"Kael took a step forward and swung.With a single motion, without any hesitation, the sword came down and the guard's head was off clean. The voices of surprise were heard from behind. Red paint-like blood started spreading out on the floor that was made of silk. Seraya cried out when her body shocked suddenly and became alert because of the terror. "NO! KAEL, PLEASE!" Kael slowly turned around, his golden eyes were bright. He looked at her, his chest going up and down.

You have disgraced me in my own home," He said in a cool voice. "You have not only taken your room but also my house of honor." "No!" she shouted. "this is really a misunderstanding, please, listen, I am not aware of what has happened here." However, Kael did not hear her and he certainly could not understand her. He gave a look to his men. "Take her to the underground cell.

Make sure she is not given food and water until I say so."Seraya made an attempt to get up but her legs were not steady, the sleeping powder that was still active in her body made her feel heavier. Two guards took her arms. "I AM NOT GUILTY!" she said in a loud voice that seemed to penetrate the palace like a curse. He went away from the room. Seraya's voice still carried long in the air after him.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.

I arrived at the hotel with Julian's favorite takeout, ready to surprise my fiancé before our big merger. But the moment I swiped the keycard, the silence of the hallway felt heavy and wrong. Inside, a red-soled stiletto lay on the marble floor-the same one I'd watched my best friend Lila try on at Saks last week. Through the cracked bedroom door, I watched Julian's back arch as Lila looked me straight in the eye and smiled, wrapping her legs tighter around him to mock my heartbreak. I fled to the penthouse to hide, only to find Grafton, Julian's "crippled" brother, waiting in the dark. To my horror, the man who was supposed to be paralyzed stood up from his wheelchair, gripped my chin with cold fingers, and forced me to sign a contract that gave him control of my family's shares. He knew about my mother's secret medical bills and used them to buy my silence, effectively turning my life into a calculated game of corporate chess. The betrayal tasted like acid, and the injustice of it all burned in my throat. My fiancé was a liar, my best friend was a thief, and the man now controlling my fate was a predator who had been faking his disability for years. I couldn't understand how everyone I trusted had turned out to be a monster. I was trapped between a man who cheated on me and a man who wanted to own me, with no way out and no one to turn to. But when Julian came looking for me, Grafton didn't hide; he stood tall, looming over me with a possessive glint in his eyes. "Help me destroy Julian," I rasped, realizing that to survive the Faulkner men, I had to become the most dangerous player of them all.
