What would you do if your body and your kingdom were stolen? [A FEATURED STORY] Uther is a young prince who's reluctantly thrust into having to defend his throne against his usurping uncle and all-around powerful wizard, who uses his powers to steal the one thing Uther thought he couldn't take: his own body. After becoming the villain of the realm in an instant, Uther struggles to find anyone that will believe his story. His uncle's unsavory reputation lands him with a family of dark fae, a goblin, and a troll--not the usual team of knightly heroes. Together, this odd team will untangle a web of curses, escape bounty hunters, and confront fae. If Uther can't figure out how to reverse his uncle's curse, he'll be trapped in a body that's not his own--doomed to be a villain--for the rest of his life. YESTERDAY'S PRINCE is The Sword in the Stone with a Freaky Friday twist. Now entered in #Wattys2016

The palace is a graveyard of dreams and hope. It slowly lures you in with its mesmerizing beauty, giving silky promises of power and wealth. But as soon as you take a step into the mirage, the doors snap shut. Then you realize... The high palace walls are nothing more than a cage of bones. The peaceful lotus pool is simply a resting place for thousands of lost souls. And laughter and smiles are a weapon to kill you before you can even mutter a single word. When lucky, a remain or two may find its way out - a fragmented jade or two bloody teeth, a remembrance that this indeed was history. From her birth, she was chained by the invisible strings of fate. What was the palace but another prison? Her bargain was her freedom, and his bet was the future of the empire. He favored the land over her, so she chose herself over him. But when she finally had the chance to escape, she found that she couldn't. For her hands were spotted with crimson blood.

I knew I should disobey, but my breath caught. Midnight hair fell across his temple, while eyes just as dark observed me in silence. Something smouldered beneath the surface, some otherworldly quality I couldn't name. Every instinct was screaming at me to run.

I learnt that there was something black inside everyone’s soul, but most of them had it buried deep within. Almost everyone — including me — preferred white instead. Even though the black could do wonders, it was equally detestable. All I wanted was to abolish the darkness that was threatening to besiege one of the hidden cities — which could later engulf the terrestrial sphere if it's not ruled out. Would I be able to do it? Could I fight the dark? Did I have it in me to kill the ‘dark one?’ I'd even give my life to squelch the Master of the dark, but what'll happen if my only love happens to be the next in line? Would I be able to love him after that? **I'll let the story unveil my unanswered questions.** And oh, the amazing cover of this book was made by @ThaiArt :)
