Princess Gwendolyn of Elithriel is tired of living life as a royal. She secretly craves a life of adventure like one from the books she reads. Her parents Queen Grace and King Richard are always telling her she needs to find a husband before she turns eighteen. And as her 18th birthday approaches, her mother begins forcing her to meet with potential suitors, all of whom are at least ten years her senior. Andrew Duval, better known as the Peregrine for his quick escapes, is Elithriel's most wanted criminal for thievery from many noble families. On the night of Princess Gwendolyn's 18th birthday, he decides to commit his biggest crime yet, kidnap the princess and hold her for ransom. As Gwen and Drew travel together, they come to an understanding. Drew can give Gwen the life of adventure that she has always wanted and Gwen can give Drew the money that he needs to provide for his family. And once two people travel together for long enough, an inevitable bond will begin to form. But there's one problem, Gwen and Drew come from two completely different worlds. After all, a princess cannot marry a thief, right?

**SPINOFF TO SHADOW** Being surrounded by Supers when you're not one yourself is pretty strange, to say the least. For one, they're always running off to save some damsel in distress or rescue a kitten from a tree. That means that I have to share my notes from chemistry class with them when they miss school. For another, they might start talking about things that you can't relate to. "Oh, man. The feeling of a bird crapping on your face while you're flying three hundred miles per hour over the thousand foot skyscrapers? Horrible." Lastly, you kind of get left out of the Super loop. You know, that gossip of the Round Table that's only shared between Supers? Yeah. I'm that outsider. But the difference is that this time, I think I didn't just know a few things that could help the superheroes out. I knew enough to become a spy for them. My name is Cameron Knight, but the rest of the world will know me as Inferno. _________________________ Cameron Knight had a rough childhood, sculpting her into a slightly reckless teenager when she grew up. When she was taken under the cloaks of two superheroes eight and a half years ago, she got used to the fact that her life wasn't normal and it never would be. She was surrounded by Supers wherever she went, between her adopted parents and her best friend. She didn't think her own apartment would fall victim to another Super, or that it would be a villain. "I never wanted to be a superhero. But I guess being a regular old hero every once in a while isn't so bad."
