1750 BC, Ancient Sumeria: When her home city is conquered by a notoriously cruel prince, Eliana's world is torn apart. Things go from bad to worse when he chooses her beloved sister for his concubine. ** This story was written around five years ago and subsequently had some parts unpublished while I put it out into the world on Amazon. It's been around for a while now so I decided it was time to republish the whole thing on here. Enjoy!

Aurelia, a Noble Roman woman, had heard of the savage British tribes, their mystic Celtic ways, and the battles the Roman army was fighting against them on their shores. The battles her soon-to-be Husband, Quintus Acquilla, was fighting in the name of the Eagle. But she could not have predicted that, when she crossed the ocean to be with him and fulfil the marriage contract between their families, she would be captured by a Barbarian War Lord and made to be his War Prize...

What can a slave girl do when she's but a pawn in a game of kings? Sent to infiltrate the enemy kingdom as the new bride of the King of Palandyre, Cinclair has only one goal in mind: the prize is her freedom, the price is his life, and the task is murder. But the man she must kill ignites in her a fire she cannot quench, sends her blood racing with the first flash of his grin and the tilt of his brow, and it feels like a dagger in her gut to see him falling for a mask she wears and the lies she's spun, because one more day his passion grows means one less day that he may live. As stakes climb higher and the war drums pound louder outside the castle walls, the hour of his death draws unforgivably near. But the heart cannot kill what the heart beats for... and her heart beats for his. [ cover by @VaineLuchia ]

Part 1 - 10 free publish untuk umum Part 11 ke atas akan di Privat hanya untuk follower Azhura Kahn.... Namanya berarti cahaya ilahi. Dia adalah dewa dari segala dewa, dengan kekuatan tertinggi di Ametyst, dunia mereka yang subur dan makmur. Banyak dewa dan dewi yang dipuja oleh penduduk Ametyst, tetapi hanya satu yang dipuja sekaligus ditakuti oleh manusia dan bahkan juga ditakuti oleh kalangan dewa. Dia adalah Azhura Kahn. Namanya disebutkan dengan penuh hormat dan bibir bergetar, kuil-kuil pemujaan untuknya adalah yang terbesar dari segala yang ada. DI dalam Kuil raksasa di Garaya, ada patung yang melambangkan dirinya, dibuat dari emas murni bertaburkan berlian, dengan sosok seperti manusia bertubuh sempurna, matanya selalu dilambangkan menatap tajam kepada pemuja yang membungkuk di bawahnya, dan dagunya selalu dibuat yang mendongak penuh keangkuhan, Kedua tangannya memegang pedang yang terhunus di tangan kiri dan tengkorak di tangan kanan. Bunga-bunga persembahan bertaburan di bawah kaki patung dirinya. Seluruh penduduk selalu membungkuk di hadapannya, hampir enam belas kali sehari, memuja sang dewa. Dulu sekitar lima ribu tahun yang lalu, kisah betapa dasyatnya kekuatan Azhura Kahn masih terngiang di telinga seluruh manusia, kisah yang diturunkan selama lima ratus tahun, setiap kisah membawa penuturan yang berbeda, tetapi pesannya tetap sama : "Jangan pernah membuat marah sang Mahadewa, Azhura Kahn. Dan jangan pernah mengganggu Kerajaan Garaya, karena isteri Azhura Kahn dipercaya akan terlahir di Kerajaan Garaya." Seorang perempuan biasa, dari kalangan manusia biasa, akan dilahirkan di Garaya untuk menjadi isteri dari Azhura Kahn yang agung...... mungkinkah itu?
