Synopsis
Elena reclaims her life after discovering her fairy-tale marriage was built on lies and betrayal.
This is not a fairytale. No, this is a story of what lurks beyond the "happily ever after." Once upon a time, Elena assumed the role of Princess Veronica, married the crown prince, and lived what appeared to be a perfect royal life. But beneath the glittering surface of palace life, dark secrets and dangerous games lurk in every shadow. When Elena discovers that her fairy tale ending was built on lies and betrayal, she finds herself with a second chance to rewrite her story. This time, she won't be anyone's pawn. Armed with knowledge of what fate awaits her, Elena must navigate the treacherous waters of court intrigue, where every smile hides a dagger and every promise could be poison. In a world where appearances deceive and trust is a luxury she can no longer afford, Elena must decide who she can trust—and how far she's willing to go to claim her own destiny.
