Raven Vale

In the kingdom of silver chandeliers and poisoned whispers, the royal assassin was feared like a shadow with a heartbeat. Her name was Raven Vale, a woman hired to eliminate traitors before sunrise ever touched the castle walls. She never failed a mission. Until Her Highness smiled at her. Princess Evelyne carried elegance like a blade hidden beneath silk gloves. The assassin was ordered to watch the princess closely after rumors of rebellion spread through the kingdom. Instead of finding weakness, Raven found warmth. Late-night conversations slowly replaced deadly silence. The princess trusted Raven more than anyone in the palace. Raven secretly fell in love with the woman she was supposed to protect, not adore. But every romance inside a royal court grows thorns eventually. One night, Raven disappeared after being framed for treason. She believed Evelyne had abandoned her to save the crown. What Raven never discovered was the truth left behind. Before she vanished, the princess had fallen pregnant with Raven’s child. Now years later, the assassin returns to the kingdom, unaware a little girl with her eyes calls the princess “Mama.”
