Nina the Starry Bride 14

Nina the Starry Bride volume 14 continues the beguiling fantasy shojo saga of Nina, a street-raised girl with lapis lazuli eyes who is thrust into a royal life after a twist of fate. Written by Rikachi, this 176-page installment threads palace intrigue with perilous romance as Nina navigates her new identity as princess-priestess Alisha’s stand-in, with the enigmatic Prince Azure orbiting her choices. As Nina wrestles with loyalty, trust, and forbidden feelings, the stakes rise: will she outwit political schemes, protect those she loves, and define her own destiny beyond marriage politics? Set against celestial imagery and lush worldbuilding, the story blends suspense and heartfelt storytelling in a way fans of The Ancient Magus’ Bride or Snow White with the Red Hair will recognize. This English-language release continues Rikachi’s bold, character-driven fantasy, inviting readers to explore a tale of power, identity, and romance in a richly realized realm.
