A tale of betrayal, forbidden love, and the price of peace - Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and Cruel Prince Once, the golden realm of Caer Auren and the mountain kingdom of Caerthain stood united. But that alliance crumbled generations ago, leaving bitterness in its wake. Now, with the shadow of the Veyr spreading across the continent, old rivalries must die or both kingdoms will fall. To forge a truce, Princess Elara of Caer Auren is bound by oath to marry Prince Kael of Caerthain, heir to a kingdom as cold and ruthless as the peaks where it sits. Elara hides a forbidden power, an ancient gift that lets her tear the truth from another's mind with a single touch. Kael wields his own hidden gift, trusts no one, least of all the bride sent by a near enemy realm. Thrown together in a union built on necessity and politics, Elara and Kael are forced to navigate courtly deceit, buried prophecies, and the ghosts of their divided pasts. When the Veyr begin to stir, their uneasy bond may be the only thing that stands between salvation and ruin. But some flames burn too brightly, and some truths were meant to stay lies.

In a world shrouded in darkness, where truths hide behind a veil of secrets, he is born... a vampire who knows no Mercy. His power lies within the shadows themselves, yet fate, bound by an eternal curse, will lead him into the deepest hell-turning his life upside down, as the shadows unveil secrets he never dared to imagine. (( Warning: This story contains Violence, Blood, and Vampires. ))

Those who were taken... They never came back, dragged beneath the waves never to return. Their haunting screams were a symbol of their horrific deaths. Like shadows they lay in wait, the deep blue waters hiding them from view. With sharp claws they attack, Pointed fangs tearing into skin, Eager mouths devouring human flesh. Cally was taken, dragged under the water by one of the vicious creatures. But she was not devoured nor torn apart by ruthless claws--no. She was a captive. ~•~ Water instantly invades her senses. Her eyes sting, her lungs and nose burning. She thrashes, kicks, claws--anything to get away. Her efforts go to waste as her body slowly starts to shut down, the air in her lungs quickly being replaced by sea water. Cally is vaguely aware of arms wrapping around her waist and behind her head before she loses consciousness, submerged in darkness. And so she is taken. Another victim of the mysterious sea. 《Completed》 Subscribe to TheAllieL Patreon for exclusive stories and content not featured on Wattpad and to support future works and book publishing! - Free Subscriber Tier - Allie's Library - Tier 1 - $2/month - Allie's Journal - Tier 2 - $5/month Subscribe here: Patreon.com/TheAllieL
