The Queen of Ashes

Princess Luna endured venomous thorns and silent suffering for her fiancé—only to be cast aside when he mistakes a cunning mistress for his true savior. The schemer steals Luna's healing gem and claims her bridal chamber. On her wedding day, Luna shatters her vow ring at the altar and offers herself to Hades, rising as the Underworld Queen. Her repentant lover is left to drown in agonizing guilt, while Luna reigns in shadowed glory—no longer a princess waiting to be saved, but a queen who rules the dead and remakes her fate in fire.
