❛the ends justify the means.❜ ( part two of deadwater kings ) The board is set and Shabina chose her side. The better world she dreamed of is finally within her grasp, but she struggles when the path to victory seems to be paved in blood. The longer she hesitates, the bolder her enemies become, giving room for monsters to creep from the shadows. Lin is left shattered in the aftermath of her last battles, having lost more than she thought she could survive. That just means she has nothing left to lose and a vendetta. She's now a free agent, and she uses that freedom to do the same thing she did before: hunt.

Anne De Ville is a do-the-same-thing-every-day kind of ordinary. On the one day she chooses to try and do something different, she ends up dropping her shoes down several flights of stairs, right onto the head of her crush-and her brother's best friend-Hunter Denegan. Will her Prince Charming look for the girl who lost her shoe? [This book is going to be published with Wattpad WEBTOON Book Group in the Summer 2025] [[word count: 20,000-30,000 words]]
