**Featured by Wattpad HQ in the Curated By You RL** **Featured and Interviewed on TeenFiciton for the API Month** **Historical Fiction Spotlight** When Bridgerton meets Once upon a time in a compelling Standalone Historical Fantasy! _________________ During the 1920s, while escaping from his once-idyllic hamlet in rural India, Neil loses the only person who mattered to him. Rescued by a hunter, he molds himself into one of the best warriors of Cascadia. Impressed, the queen gives him a direct order to kill a traitor to the kingdom; the crowned prince, Dove. As a reward, he is offered a potion which was a way to bring back his lover from the dead. Despite being the sole heir, Dove has been relegated to the role of a servant by his stepmother. Neil could not bring himself to complete the task when their paths cross. So, they join forces facing challenging quests to collect seven items required to make the potion. The only catch? They need to do so before the last shard of the mystical glass painting falls as the potion would then expire. As the clock ticks, Neil is left to make a choice. Will he betray the young prince and become the hero of the kingdom or try to complete an impossible task with the risk of facing a lifetime of cruelty in the dungeons? ________________ Second draft editing was done with the help of @eacomiskey please check out her works too! **I do not own the cover image.

"Yes, you are. Don't you have any shame?" "Shame?" I asked, confused with what shame has to do with being jealous. "Yes, shame. Don't you have any shame for yourself? You're jealous of a woman being with your mate who wants nothing to do with you. Isn't that pathetic?" he asks, shocking me with his cruel words. "Why would you say something like that?" I ask, feeling my voice shake. "Because if you've forgotten your place. You're my destined mate, but you will never be my chosen mate," he says, venom dripping with every word. I can't hold the tears any longer, so I quickly run away from him. I can't spend another second close to him. I wish I didn't have a mate. ************** Liz has been told to reject her mate all her life, but her mom refuses to explain why. One day Liz meets her mate and does the opposite.
