Introduction

.

Seraphina Greythorne 19 years old Innocent, kind, obident the daughter of Darius Greythorne and Alina Greythorne, was born into a kingdom Eldria. Her father's heart had never truly belonged to her mother, as Darius had been in love with another before his arranged marriage to Alina. Despite this, they had Seraphina, and for a time, the family seemed complete. But when Seraphina was just seven, tragedy struck, and her mother died from an unknown disease. Barely two months later, Darius remarried, choosing the woman he had always loved. She bore him two children—a son, older than Seraphina, and a daughter, younger. It didn’t take long for Seraphina's presence to vanish from the household. Her stepmother treated her like a servant, and her stepsiblings followed suit, taking every opportunity to belittle her. Seraphina, however, never fought back. She bore the mistreatment silently, hoping that by doing so, her father would stop looking at her with contempt and perhaps see her as a daughter once again. But Darius remained oblivious, treating Seraphina as if she didn’t exist. As they grew older, her stepsiblings began to frame her, blaming her for their own misdeeds, all in an attempt to win their father's favor and make her life even more miserable...

.

Darius Greythorne, 49 years old Cruel, cheater, corrept father of Seraphina, harbored no affection for her. Despite the love he had for his second wife, Marrisa, and his two stepchildren, he viewed Seraphina as a mere burden, a mistake from his first marriage. He remained indifferent to the harsh treatment Seraphina endured at the hands of her stepmother and step-siblings, caring only for the happiness of his new family.

.

Marrisa Greythorne, 45 years old, is the cruel and calculating stepmother of Seraphina. Filled with resentment and hatred for her stepdaughter, Marrisa ensures that Seraphina is treated no better than a servant in her own home. Manipulative and sharp-tongued, she takes every opportunity to frame Seraphina for faults that aren’t hers, fueling Darius’s scorn and further isolating the girl from any semblance of love or family.

.

Serena Greythorne, 18 years old, is Seraphina’s cruel and double-faced stepsister. Beneath her charming exterior lies a scheming and ambitious nature, hungry for power and the throne. Consumed by jealousy of Seraphina’s natural grace and beauty, Serena takes every chance to belittle her, ensuring that Seraphina remains humiliated and powerless within the household. Her deceitful ways make her a dangerous force, always plotting to secure her position at any cost.

.

Rhaen Greythorne, 21 years old, is Seraphina’s cruel and double-faced stepbrother. Calculating and power-hungry, he sees Seraphina not as a person but as a tool to manipulate and a pawn in his relentless pursuit of the throne. Rhaen’s sharp mind is matched by his ruthless ambition, and he spares no opportunity to mistreat or undermine Seraphina, using her struggles to his advantage while maintaining a facade of respectability in public.
