"As soon as you believe you are a monster is when you become one." After many years of war, the kingdom of Edria is finally in an era of peace--peace obtained by one thing and one thing only. A deal. King Regol has made a deal with the devil, or rather, a beast. A monster. Or so he claims. When he uses the deal for his own advantage, he threatens a girl named Zara, who has had everything but her family taken away. Zara is ordered to kill the beast Regol made a deal with, unbenownst to her that the deal even exists. When her attempt fails, she is left with two choices: to never go back home, or to learn from the beast so she can take back what is hers. She faces dangers on the castle grounds she thought were only stories; magic, creatures that kill a person in a single puff of air, and lastly, the beast, who can barely control the darkness that has buried itself in him for years. The longer she is on the castle grounds, however, the more she realizes everything is more than it seems... ...and that she has a power she could only dream about. **** A retelling of Beauty and the Beast Wonderful cover by @nicegirlsreadbooks Highest rank: #1 in Fantasy #4 in Adventure

They must return to Thule and warn the Uriel...before it's too late.

Take it from Harley Quinn, who's getting nothing back from her man. But yet she's still willing to risk everything for him...I never said I understood love!

Distantly I heard a voice answer the phone, "Hello, what is your emergency?" I couldn't control my mouth, my thoughts were jumbled and my vision blurry. It felt like my mouth was stuffed with cotton balls. I managed to whisper a desperate, weak "Help me. Please." As the edges of my vision darkened. I could hear the emergency man on the phone, asking me where I was and what had happened, but his voice was getting quieter and quieter until it was just a deep warble. I felt a tear slide down my cheek as the dark edges of my peripheral seeped in to fill my vision and sent a prayer as the world went black. Jonathan never would have expected this to happen.
