The Blood Moon Festival is a deadly competition that selects the next generation of dragon riders. Most competitors spend their childhood honing their Divine - a rare, godlike power typically found in the ruling class. But Raven Black, a poor orphan with an unusually powerful Divine, spent her childhood breaking more laws than she can count. At sixteen, Raven's list of crimes is taller than she is, and she is paying the price for it. Caught and sentenced to death after a heist gone wrong, Raven figures her luck has finally run out. That is until a dragon rider sees potential in Raven's Divine and offers her a chance to avoid execution by competing in the Blood Moon Festival. With no other choice, Raven enters Skydescent, a castle where contestants train and form alliances. As the only ex-criminal, Raven figured she would be the most cutthroat, her competitors too worried about honor to get their hands dirty. But in Scadril, a powerful dragon is honor. 128 competitors enter the Blood Moon Festival, and each will do whatever it takes to come out on top.

Aarav Oberoi never made mistakes. At least, that's what he told himself. The sleek glass walls of Oberoi Enterprises gleamed under the harsh office lights, but inside the penthouse suite, the air felt thick - with tension, suspicion, and something darker. A confidential project, years in the making, had just been compromised. Millions lost. Trust shattered. And all fingers pointed to one person. Ruhi Sharma. His assistant. The one who had been with him through late nights and endless board meetings. The one he never thought could betray him. But the files had leaked. And in Aarav's eyes, betrayal was betrayal - no matter who wore the mask. He didn't pause to ask questions. He didn't look for proof. Because in the ruthless game of business, weakness was a luxury he couldn't afford. His decision was swift, brutal. He ruined her. Her career. Her reputation. Her future. Now, as the city lights flickered below his office window, Aarav felt a strange weight - not of triumph, but of something far heavier. Regret. Because the real traitor was still out there. And the woman he destroyed was innocent.

Forced into a Bratva marriage to settle a blood debt, Alina is delivered to the Reznikov estate like an offering - silent, soft-spoken, and smart enough to know that survival means obedience.

That if she disobeys, he won't raise a hand - he'll break her with nothing but words. But as walls crumble and secrets unravel, the most dangerous thing of all isn't the violence outside their gates.

So why is he starting to look at her like she's everything? 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 𝐨𝐟 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐁𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐒𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 ༺༒︎༻ 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝 ✓ 𝟔𝟒 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬

"Do you know what you've done to me, Annalise?" Her breath caught. "I-" "I can't think of anything but you." His voice was dark velvet. "Not since that night. Not since you pulled away." She stepped back-hesitant. He followed like a shadow. "Your Highness, you're-" "Different?" A slight tilt of his head. "Yes. You made me this way." Her hands trembled against her gown. "I didn't mean to-" "Didn't you?" His words wrapped around her. And there was no space left between them. _*_*_*_*_*_ In the heart of two ancient kingdoms, a princess draped in moonlight and sorrow was given to a prince carved from ice and iron. Princess Annalise Seraphina Charlotte of Eldoria carried the crown of a fallen family, her kingdom trembling on the edge of ruin. Graceful, kind, and untouchable as a winter rose, she was the last hope of a land that had lost everything. Prince Harold George Edmund of Valdermere was a warrior born of war and silence. With a crown of duty and eyes that revealed nothing, he was trained to rule with strength, not sentiment. Bound by an arranged marriage neither wished for, they stood together-strangers beneath golden arches, united for the sake of peace. But even in a world of thrones and treaties, hearts still whisper. And sometimes, even the coldest of unions can catch fire. This is the tale of two souls, burdened by duty, surrounded by shadows, and yet... destined to find something neither of them believed in anymore. Love. _*_*_*_*_*_ Book:1 in So Royal Series. Can be read as a standalone.
