What Is The Main Plot Of Empress Orchid Book?

(Sequel of "Stolen Crown") After almost six years of staying in Realgar Kingdom, Emery Trigon was summoned by the Arcana headmaster to return to the Kingdom of Silex due to an emergency. She was yet again set to a more dangerous mission in order to find out who had been on a killing spree in their kingdom and even attacked the Arcana's headquarters. This led Emery to not only cross path again with her ex-husband, King Lawson, but she would find herself getting involved with the tyrant conqueror and ruler of an empire, Emperor Claus Weston. And what only started to be a mission of gathering intel suddenly turned into a quest of claiming the crown of an empress.

Feared by the world and worshipped by none, Empress Halrem Vaelith has spent ten glittering years ruling the Silver Empire with unmatched brilliance, merciless vanity, and a cruelty sharp enough to ruin men without ever staining her hands with blood. Then the Beast Emperor came for her. Draevor Kaine, the war-born sovereign of the Black Dominion, has crushed kingdoms beneath his boots, slaughtered monsters with his bare hands, and bowed to no living soul. Yet the moment he stood before Halrem’s throne, he did the impossible. He knelt. What should have been a scandal soon becomes the continent’s most dangerous legend. He lays empires, victories, and treasures at her feet. She answers him with cold disdain. He worships her with a devotion that borders on madness, and Halrem finds herself intoxicated by the one man powerful enough to destroy the world and foolish enough to love only her. But long before he ever touched her hand, Draevor was cursed. The day he willingly kneels for love, the woman he worships will die. Now Halrem is slowly dying, Draevor is unraveling before two empires, and a love built on pride, obsession, and ruthless devotion is forced into a battle against fate itself. For the Beast Emperor can burn kingdoms to ash. But he would sooner set heaven on fire than lose his wicked empress.

On the night of the Festival of Lights, Mother secretly took me out to wander the streets. Then, out of nowhere, a man and a woman stepped into our path. The man stared at my mother, his eyes turning red. "Emmeline?" The woman's gaze locked on me. She grabbed the man's sleeve, suddenly frantic. "Cedric, look! Those eyes, that face... She's our daughter, Rosalind!" She rushed toward me with her arms open wide. "Rosalind, I'm your mother!" I was so scared that I scrambled behind my mother. Mother pulled me behind her without a word. Her face gave nothing away. The man approached, looking guilty and full of himself at the same time. "Emmeline, it must have been hard on you all these years, raising my daughter with Seraphina so well. Now that I've returned to the capital, I'll make it up to you. I still remember the promise we made, our betrothal. "But Seraphina is already my lawful wife, so I'm afraid you'll have to settle for being a concubine." I was stunned. My father was the reigning Emperor. My mother was the Empress. What in the world was this man talking about?
