❝ A liar once said that every cloud has a silver lining. ❞ In a kingdom as renowned as Forteaux Academy, the falling of one monarch leads to the ascendance of another. Heart sliced in two by the woman he thought understood him, Gabriel Reid relishes the disassociation from humanity that came gifted alongside the golden throne. After all, the chance of emotions destroying you is non-existent if the heart itself perishes. Armed with a gorgeous face hand-carved by angels and a silver body, cast by the devil himself, the infatuated hands of all reach out for a touch of his infallible skin. Love hurts when it's tainted but kills when it's not reciprocated and a pair of seafoam eyes, obsessed with the King, knows that better than ever. With broken friendships, deep rooted bitterness and pure loathing still scattered across the Academy grounds, the reappearance of a woman having second doubts is destined to be the flame to the fuel. Because for every King, there can only be one Queen. •--- ♛ ♕ ♛ ---• #1 prestigious | 290321 | #20 drunk | 020321 | #14 gold | 041024 | The Taste of Silver, Book Two of Fortune's Fool Trilogy, KiwiAndKoalas, All rights reserved ©

"I think you should stop being so mean to me, Zahed." "Why would I ever do that?" Aryan grins, a bright, wicked thing. "Because I kiss you like this." • Mira Zahed and Aryan Shankar are at war. When her best friend and his cousin decide to fall in love, Mira and Aryan do the complete opposite. Neither of them can get rid of the other, bound together by their doe-eyed lovebird best friends for all eternity, so it appears. However, sooner or later, Mira and Aryan's rivalry extends past the biting brunches and hot glares across the UCLA campus, to a series of kisses that burn like hellfire and three whispered words that glow brighter than the hot hatred they'd risen from. But even when Aryan kisses her like no one else, Mira still just might kill him one of these days. After all, they were at war. © archeronta 2020

In the midst of her family's best kept secret being plastered amongst the tabloids, Astoria Damaris came to realize 3 things that she quickly grew to resent. The first being that London's unruly weather has made it rather difficult to wear the new Dior skirts that she had been waiting to show off all spring. She quite liked her title as 'IT girl' but after their haste move to Europe, she found it quite strenuous to upkeep it due to the dull climate. Secondly, Astoria Damaris realized that it was becoming rather tiresome to be Astoria Damaris. Dead older sister, consistent lack of privacy, and irreparable mommy issues- Add a sordid family scandal to that, and she'd begin to question whether she'd prefer living an impoverished lifestyle. But then she's remember how dearly she adored her shoe collection and scrap the whole idea. Lastly, british boys have proved to being a dangerous sub-species. With those annoyingly hot accents and their perpetual charm, attending a school filled to the rim with them was a dire mistake. So, Astoria vowed to stay away from them- Especially ones with captivating blue eyes, dimpled smiles that are kept under wraps, and go by the name Grayson King. Unfortunately, the last vow she made to herself lasted about a week, when she promised to control her vapid shopping addiction. It was going well until Chanel dropped their winter collection, and she just had to get her hands on a masterfully curated fur coat. Hopefully, icy blue eyes were less appealing to her than a one-of-a-kind fur coat.

❝ The question is, are you worth your weight in gold? ❞ Reputation is a sacred sheet of parchment at Forteux Academy. Handled carefully, it can become a bill of gold leading one to a life of riches. Yet a mere foot in the wrong direction can tear its dainty form until the misstepped individual goes tumbling down the very social hierarchy they were once so eager to ascend. When a mistake left behind from the crowned Queen's darkest night rocks up in the form of a handsome newcomer, Louisa Darling is more desperate than ever to keep everything under covers in her elite circle. The taste of jealousy, bitterness, hate and love is beyond dangerous in a world where everyone is used to getting what they want. And with one desperate to hide a secret that the other is determined to seek, things are bound to get damn complicated.
