When the Kingdom of Nivon's curse petrifies their country, ripples bleed through the Veil, thrusting Florence between the truth about her lineage and their enemy's sacrificial son. 🏹🏹🏹 Without a voice, Florence Kinsella never anticipated being buried alive--let alone the need to cry out for aid. Unfortunately for her, when the second explosion breaks the ground and she falls into a world unlike any other, a sadistic Prince captures her. Raised as a spare pawn, Davian Mazdarim was born solely to die in place of his brother, Cahir. When the knife-happy heir drags an oddly dressed captive through the palace, believing her a Nivonian spy, he tries a new approach to interrogation. As vivid nightmares begin tormenting Florence and the game between alliance and betrayal thins, she'll be forced to witness the bad dealings of both ancestors she never knew and a future that's been rewritten. Pawn, Knight, and Bishop will join forces in a tender alliance, but only one can remain on the throne. What is a King without his Queen? || Ariel meets Prometheus in this inspired Fairytale || || Standalone || 》Cover by Me《

For the Slates, demon slaying is the family business. And eighteen-year-old Perrin has fully embraced her chosen profession. But when her sister, fifteen-year-old Ace, declares she's ready to join the cause, Perrin has her reservations. First of all, the case she's picked involves not one, but three demonic foes. A tricky proposition for any new slayer. Second, something eerily familiar lurks at the heart of the infested town. A red-eyed presence that may or may not be the demon who murdered their brother a decade ago. Third, Ace refuses to listen. To reason, to orders, to sense. And in this line of work, one false move can get you killed. Along with their exasperated father and an overeager grocery store clerk, Perrin and Ace set out to raise a little hell and bag a trio of baddies. But demons aren't the only ones to fear. A secret society has discovered their connection to an ancient bet. One involving their very souls. And as enemies close in on all sides, the Slates will need to trust each other and their training to stay one step ahead of the coming storm. Set against the backdrop of 2010 Middle America, Slate Gray is a nostalgic tale of demons, driving and destiny. Will Perrin sacrifice herself to protect her sister? Will Ace make a deal with the devil to bring their brother back? Only time will tell.
