Adopted as Lemon Black

In the Kingdom of Elaria, the throne has witnessed more sorrow than celebration.

After losing three royal heirs under mysterious circumstances, King Alistair Black and Queen Eleanor Black finally welcome a healthy daughter into the world. But fate is cruel. At the age of five, Princess Rose disappears during a royal journey and is believed to have drowned, leaving the kingdom without hope.

Years later, a compassionate orphan named Lemon is adopted by the grieving royal couple and raised as the future Queen of Elaria, unaware that the palace she now calls home once belonged to her.

As Lemon prepares to inherit the crown, a quiet young knight named Keith Carter is assigned to protect her. Reserved yet exceptionally skilled, Keith seems like any other loyal knight—but behind his calm demeanor lies a secret capable of destroying everything.

While hidden enemies move through the shadows and a ruthless nobleman plots to seize the throne, old wounds begin to reopen, forgotten truths rise to the surface, and the fate of an entire kingdom hangs in the balance.

Some secrets are buried for years.

Some destinies can never be erased.

And sometimes... the family you've been searching for has been waiting for you all along.
