I'M NOT THE MONSTER YOU SHOULD FEAR. A world of bloodshed is all Yazia has known despite never having struck a blade to one's heart-that is until everything changes when an attack lures her into a spiral of revenge for her parent's death. With nothing but the throne of Sankori left to her name, a new war threatening the crown is on the rise. Wishing for no more death of her kind, Yazia has pledged to keep the last of her people alive, no matter the cost. Her plan is simple: infiltrate the rivalling kingdom, and usurp the King of Abingor. But what happens when who you thought was your enemy isn't your enemy at all? Only her ability with a blade can protect her through the dangerous politics of her foe. But amidst the schemes to finish everything Yazia has stood up for, it is not too late before she realizes she is merely a pawn in the game. Yazia uncovers something far more sinister than a powerful monarch; something even the most feared are afraid of. An assassin. A traitor. A prisoner. Her mission has unexpectedly changed-she will bring the looming war back home. ✥ FALLEN EMPIRES BOOK 1 ✥ ------------------ [ Gorgeous cover designed by @ryevain] [ Beautiful banners designed by @-DeeIsDead- ] ©2022 S.Hughes Published to Wattpad 01.02.22 If you are reading this on any platform other than Wattpad, you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.

𝗔𝗠𝗕𝗬𝗦 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯 𝗪𝗜𝗡𝗡𝗘𝗥 · 28x FEATURED · An Asian sci-fi retelling of The Little Mermaid that steers the tale you know in a whole new funky direction | An ambitious teen mermaid must venture beyond her guarded underwater city and brave the polluted, climate-ravaged wilds of the Indian Ocean, in order to find her human soulmate and forge a better future for her people. *** Calliathron is the epitome of modern sea life--a bustling mer-city contained within a coral atoll in an alternate Indian Ocean. Yet, the ripples of a changing world beyond have begun to seep in, bleaching color and darkening minds--but not Dea Rhodoreef's mind. Who said life's easy for a teen about to graduate high school? Even more so when one is a pastel goth gamer mermaid trying to scrape by in a mobile home with a grumpy grandmother who's always complaining about the "human infestation". Maybe the troubled city-state will embrace a new dawn when merpeople and humans coexist--a future that Dea is determined to work hard for. Noble causes aside, just getting to see a notorious human is number one on her bucket list. Now, as if school, a part-time job and building a political career aren't enough, a chonky sea cow has been following her for days. It's time to return him to the wild--not like she'd swim into a human.
