Blamed for a lethal disease she did not cause, a reclusive necromancer sets out to cure the sickness and save a town before any more victims perish. *** Draped in a cloak of blood and deemed a wicked monster, Evylyn is an immortal necromancer, feared enough to silence any mention of her name. As the accused source of a deadly disease, paired with her infamy in necromancy, she avoids the town of Ensceas at all costs. But Evylyn's fate is decided by a coin toss, and she's forced to break free from her chains of destiny, nearly paying with her life. She's rewarded by a bounty hunter tracking her down, hungry to give her the sanguinary death she deserves. In her eleventh hour, a fellow demigoddess gives her two things: a second chance, and a way to weasel her way into the hearts of those that despise her. Simply, she must remedy the incurable disease that she allegedly caused, preferably before the entire town of Ensceas falls victim to its sickness. Thankfully, Evylyn's infamy didn't come from thin air, and if there's anyone that can rival death, it's her. ----- ❈ ----- INCLUDES: ❈ Sapphic demigoddesses ❈ Badass sunshine x soft-hearted grump ❈ Magical, mysterious malady ❈ Cute baby animals FEATURED ON: ❈ @highfantasy Featured High Fantasy Stories, @OpenNovellaContest's Longlist ❈ @Fantasy, @Romance, @highfantasy, @darkfantasy, @mythandlegend, @StoriesUndiscovered 𝙎𝙩𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝘿𝙖𝙩𝙚: 02/01/2023 𝙀𝙣𝙙 𝘿𝙖𝙩𝙚: 4/17/2023 𝙒𝙤𝙧𝙙 𝘾𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩: 28k 𝙂𝙚𝙣𝙧𝙚𝙨: High Fantasy, Romance, Adventure 𝘾𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧: @ZoeAlamort © 2023 [First Edition]

Ainsley is a dragonblood princess, powerful but constantly restrained by her duties and her oppressive father, the king of Ellay. When a pirate crew makes a shaky truce with the king and asks for a guarantee of their safe travels around his country, he offers up Ainsley as an unwilling hostage and a show of good faith on his part. Ainsley suddenly finds herself powerless and trapped on a pirate ship, but the crew is nothing like what she expects, and neither is the lady captain, Gael, who defies every expectation and leaves Ainsley curious and unsure of where her loyalties lie. She tries her best to hate Gael and the pirates, but slowly, they're winning her over, and she must face the awful truth: to follow her heart will bring about catastrophic consequences, and she will need to be prepared to fight fire with fire.

A magic-addicted spy trapped in the queen's service must track a princess-turned-assassin in order to earn her freedom, but things get complicated when she falls for the princess she's supposed to capture. ***** Weak. Cursed. That's how seventeen-year-old Kayden Branimir, the realm's deadliest assassin, views herself. Some believe she could save the world with her rare healing magic, but she gave up on her powers long ago after failing to save her best friend. Her life changes when she receives a letter from her supposedly dead twin brother, Alaric, begging to be rescued from rival territory Leodia. For the first time since her friend's accident, Kayden is determined to be the hero, but she must learn to embrace her magic--and herself--along the way. Strange. Unnatural. Those are the words whispered about eighteen-year-old Zara Tait, a Leodian spy addicted to soul-stealing magic. Forced into the queen's service, Zara wants to escape and return home, but she has nothing to offer the queen in exchange for her freedom. When Kayden arrives in Leodia, Zara sees the quiet girl with unique magic as the bargaining chip she needs. But the more she learns of Kayden, the more her feelings grow. Now, Zara must choose between her freedom and the dangerous assassin she hadn't meant to fall for.
