The Accidental Empress Book Novels & Stories

“I am a lawyer for Crownbridge Holdings. I stand for trust. The book must go under escrow unless you agree now.” The word trust hit like ice. Adrian’s face twisted. His voice broke. “You. You are the reason my life was ruined.” Aiko only bowed her head, calm and cold. “I am here for rights.” The house turned into a court. Nia pushed. Laurent pressed. Gabriel whispered warnings. Aiko smiled like a shark. I forced my voice steady. “The book does not move unless me and Nia open it. Here. Now. With cameras.” They looked at each other, then nodded. Cameras lit up. Phones ready. The book sat on the table like a beast.

But I accepted the wine anyway with a small ‘thank you’ and took a sip. Aric disappeared into one of the inner rooms and returned with a file. I set my glass on the table, my attention fixed on the file he placed before me. I flipped through it and pulled out the pictures. “Turns out, she is an empress—I just figured that out now.” He said, taking a sip from his own glass, which was filled with a rich brown liquid. I stared at the picture of a frail woman with short hair and light blue eyes. Her eyes glowed with mischief; a chill ran down my spine. This was her; for some reason, I just knew.

"The Empress is a kind person, she listened to me and I tried my best to explain to her the situation of La papillonne. Then she told me that the light sends her to me...." "What do you mean Alicia?" "The empress said that I am the new saint of the empire." Alicia's eyes become yellowish. The surroundings have become warmer and I can see particles of light coming from her. Is this the divine power? I keep my mouth shut. I already know that her power is for saints. I never told her because I know the danger but I guess the cat was out of the bag. Alicia continues to talk. "The Empress invited me to the palace. I was still confused but I took it as a chance to talk to the emperor. It was a sca

She caught his eyes on her chest and shook her head. "Never happening, Miles. Don't hold your breath" "Never say never, sweetheart" "Have a nice day and no, you cannot come in" she added when he opened his mouth to offer whatever services he thought she might need. Closing the door behind her, she moved to sit at the dining table and opened her laptop. Her newest heroine was a librarian who accidentally got transported into one of her favorite books that was set in the Georgian era. As a princess and the last royal, she has to fight for her throne and weed out traitors who want to overthrow her. Luckily, she knows how the story goes and is quick to avoid danger. Except, one small misstep tur

said the Prince. "Where did you guys come from? So what about Karina?" asked Norman who had just realized, the four people had returned to the apartment. "Karina has been kidnapped," replied the Prince who is now Liam. Alice wondered how the Prince could be so quick to give an answer without having to think about it, especially since the answer was absolutely correct. "Kidnapped? Who kidnapped her?!" said Norman politely, rolling up his sleeves. "You don't have to pretend like you are strong. I just touch you a little bit, you're already crushed like that," Justin said. Alice laughed at Justin's answer.

) My hometown was burned to ashes for no valid reason, and it was made to appear as if it had been destroyed by accident. The book I came across by chance was about the Empress' dark secrets. (... That old hag...) I now understood why Azazel is going to battle at the age of 14 on the orders of the Empress. It was because she wants to get rid of him, the illegitimate child that can be in her way. My eyes narrowed as I look at the book, and my eyes widened in realisation. (...... I'm sure Azazel is well aware that the Empress is attempting to kill him by enlisting him in the army at such a young age.)

said the Empress waving Chelsea's apologies off " I found it quite stuffy as well , I told that old man to stop putting more roses in but he just won't listen to me ! " The Empress glared at her tea cup losing her graceful and elegant air all of a sudden making Chelsea gape at her in shock . " Don't look at me like that " said the Empress watching Chelsea's experssion with a rather pleasant smile " before I came here , I was just a small baron's daughter , who rarely stepped out of her home, sometimes my father used to worry about my marriage but see what happened" added the Empress a little spitefully .

I rush out of my room, down the hallway, down the long spiral staircase, through the packhouse doors and into the garden. She’s still there, and hasn’t moved an inch. Instead, she’s flipping through the pages of my book casually when I reach her. The moment she hears my footsteps, she looks up, that small smile still there. My cheeks burn in embarrassment. “I’m so sorry,” I rush out, gripping the sides of my dress nervously, avoiding her eyes. “It was an accident. I didn’t even know you were standing there. I would never—” “Emery Collins,” she says, cutting me off gently as she lifts the book slightly. Her eyes sparkle with interest. “You read her too?”

I could end up being thrown into prison for blasphemy, or worse, a guillotine. As I read further, it was apparently a secret information that the original Bella accidentally stumbled onto when spying on Empress Sophia through the secret passage. "What the-" I almost yelled again. "Control yourself Cho Sarang!" I slapped myself for not controlling the volume of my voice. "The empress had an affair?" I muttered in a low voice. This news really shocked me. I mean, wow. Did she really...? She really didn't fear anything or what? I was so speechless.

The tiredness of the day seeps into my skin, all the uneasy and anxious emotions swirling in the pit of my stomach, making me lose appetite once more. “It was alright.” I say, and have to exert more effort than usual to smile “Ms. Milford is stern, but a good teacher. The underground library is just like the library at SeraphFall manor, except all the bones and weapons. The Empress Regent asked for a key to be made for my personal use. I also found an interesting book about travels to other worlds, so I brought it along to read.” My lively, chipper voice is without a hint of distress, and to drive the acting home, I take a biscuit and eat it in two bites, before I reach for another as well.
