After the Prince Fled, I Became the Tyrant King's Darling

Elara, a young woman from the North, was sent by her family into a royal marriage alliance. On their wedding day, Crown Prince Kian publicly fled, leaving her humiliated. To secure medical treatment for her ailing mother, she gritted her teeth and upheld the engagement, but she refused to bear the blame for Kian's cowardice. Her quiet strength and resilience caught the eye of Kael, the King of the Seven Kingdoms, who stepped in and married her on the spot in his son's place. From having no choice in her fate, Elara gradually grew into a woman who dared to resist, decide, and take responsibility. Standing side by side with Kael, she helped thwart the coup led by the Crown Prince and a rebellious general. In the end, she earned the respect of all seven kingdoms and became their true and rightful Queen.
