I Don't Want to be Loved

Rihannan Alessin died alone in a cold prison cell — a forgotten queen who chose poison over despair. But fate had other plans. She awakens as a 12-year-old, years before everything fell apart. Given a second chance at life, Rihannan does the only thing she can: she disappears. No crown. No palace. No shackles. This time, she chooses freedom. But six years later, destiny catches up. To protect what matters, she agrees to a political marriage with the very kingdom she once fled. Only one condition: the union will last one year. Nothing more. Yet the man who once broke her is no longer the same. He’s kind. Attentive. Heartbreakingly different.
