Avaryn Alastors life couldn't possibly get any worse. That's what she told herself the second her feet crossed the threshold of Crestwood Academy. But boy, was she wrong. She'd never wanted to attend the most prestigious stuck-up school only made for the rich and the smart. She'd never even wanted to apply. But tragedy struck her family and it had always been her moms dream. The first day she's there she makes a fool out of herself in front of the most popular group in all of Crestwood. And to make matters worse one of them is her roommate! They call themselves the Devara. (Stupid, she knows). And yet she can't help but feel drawn to them. Drawn to everything about them. So Avaryn does what she does best, she investigates. Only what she finds is a whole other dangerous world. A world of secrets and pain and even magic. The Devara is supernatural. They come from a whole other world. Not only that but they are heirs to this world. They are royalty. And with royalty comes enemies ... And now these enemies want Avaryn. And the only way she'll survive is sticking with the Devara. That is ... If she doesn't kill them first. Mystery, romance, death, lies. A plot twist you won't see coming. Shadows of Ash and Gold.

EDITING IS IN PROGRESS * She is pure, caring but yet rebellious. She was Amelia Montgomery a queen who dedicated her blood and tears to survive and save her crown. She dedicated herself to accomplish the true meaning of what royalty means. He is arrogant, explosive but yet misjudged. He is Sebastian Black who had a heart way bigger than him but who ruled with nothing but compassion and mind. Both with different paths in hopes to find the freedom they so utterly desire. They were once close, close to where they knew every single flaw and strength. However, in a split second, they became strangers. In a split second their worlds crumbled and they had become enemies, forgetting their promises to each other and remembering their duty was family. Years later they meet again. Would they have changed or stayed the same? Would they still remember their promise? *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "So it's you and I forever huh." "Forever." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ *Mature language *Some mature scenes

I flinch as his hand reaches to my face, and aggressively pulls down the cloak from my head. He surveys my tear stained face and jewelry all the way down to my dress. Then he speaks, "what's your name?" I open my mouth but no words come out. Fear grips me again. "I believe I asked you a question," his eyes grow darker. "Al-Alice" I whisper. His eyes wander outside to the window. "You will address me as 'your highness' and I do not tolerate mistakes. I will punish you and you will never forget to follow my orders. Do I make myself clear?" -------------------- In this world everybody has a soulmate. Two people that are meant to be together for the rest of their lives.
