Royal Legacy: The Fae Queen

Royal Legacy: The Fae Queen

Emily Goulden

Nearly two decades after a devastating war, a young fae princess steps into a realm shaped by loss, power, and unspoken expectations. Raised by a king who never planned to rule forever, she grows strong, confident, and ready to claim a future that was always whispered as her destiny. Surrounded by magic, duty, and watchful eyes, she prepares to learn the art of the crown while staying true to herself. But just as she comes into her own, fate delivers an unexpected complication that challenges everything she thought she wanted. With wit, fire, and a sharp sense of self, she navigates loyalty, attraction, and ambition in a world where nothing is ever simple—and where rising to power may require more than she ever planned.

Unfortunately for Xavier, his father didn’t exactly do his research. You see, I haven’t been a virgin for a very, very long time. Not to mention, while I might look twenty-three, I haven’t been that age in, oh, 200 years? Xavier might think he owns me, but he has no idea that I bite. I bow to no one, the heir to Knight Enterprises included. They say what you don’t know can’t hurt you. They’ve got all that terribly wrong. Xavier, I’m coming for you. Your games are over. And when all is said and done, you will definitely be the one hurting. Because it ain’t gonna be me.
