"You look beautiful tonight," he said, voice like warm smoke--soft, but thick with something deeper. "Just like I always pictured you... right here, in my space. Where you belong." I shifted, a flicker of defiance flashing in my eyes. "Stay awa--" "Shh, baby." He cut me off with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "I'm not done yet." "I'll give you the world. Wrap it in silk, tie it with a bow, and lay it at your feet. All you have to do is stay." His fingers slid slowly up my thighs. "But you won't leave. You can't. This isn't a choice anymore. You belong to me, heart, body, and soul. Every inch of you is mine." He leaned in, brushing his lips against mine--barely touching, yet burning. "You're mine, Aria. Say it. Accept it. Breathe it. Whisper it, or just think it--I don't care. I'll hear it anyway."

As he prepares himself for the night, he wonders if the girl who stole his heart all those years ago will be there. Will this reunion bring the closure he always wanted or open the door to something new? Join him on a journey of love, longing, and memories that are hard to forget.

In the realm of Quomared, which occupies the biggest part of the continent, magic is a scarce and precious resource. Fewer and fewer humans are born magic bearers throughout the last decades. Zaretha is the only daughter of the Alsayid, religios leader and grand mage of the country, the most powerful still-living sorcerer on the continent in service of the emperor. She is, however, born empty, magicless, to everyone's disappointment. An attempt at a coup d'etate takes place after her twelfth birthday, and her father is assassinated under mysterious circumstances. An orphan now, she is brought to live in The Priory of the White Stones, a home for girls from families that have or had magic-bearing members. They are schooled to be concubines or wives that a noble family can acquire for their heir, because even if magic-less, they still carry the gene and have a fifty percent chance to bear a magic-yielding child. __________________ Mentions: Please don't copy and all that. It makes no sense; just write your own story :). My stories are for mature audience. There will be violence, gore, explicit sex and other stuff not meant for kids. Proceed at your own risk. I will point out the more intense ones but questionable stuff might be all over so if you are sensitive DO NOT read. English is not my first language, feel free to point out the spelling errors, I always appreciate that. I am generally always really happy about Feedback. :) To set expectations correctly, this is my most high fantasy leaning, lore heavy book. It will take time till you get to the romance. Once you get there, there will be stuff 😏 but till then only crumbs. 😂
