[sequel to The Seven Wonders] Ari and Aqua Bristene are the first offsprings of a new breed of Helian royals; a mixture of Helian, Hemelian and human blood runs in their veins. With the responsibilities of the kingdom and darkness gem awaiting them, both children must live up to the expectations of not only their parents but the people as well. But when an internal force from within Hel strives to overthrow the current King and Queen, Ari and Aqua must team up with their friends to save Vrede; and maybe, discover new things as well. - temporary cover by @donburibowl -

We are all connected, even though our paths have never crossed before. "Let's play a game, shall we? I will count to 20 and you can run away from me, but if I ever catch up to you, I will kill you. Sounds simple, right?" 6 men arrive at a villa, greeted by the owners who are a peculiar pair; one is a man with a smile that does not leave his face and another is a man who seems to only speak through his eyes. The trip takes a sinister turn when they are pulled into a game of horror, causing them to desperately try and escape with their lives. They are only given one chance to run away, but if they ever get caught... The answer as to why they are being targeted may go beyond what they can fathom; a connection they can't even begin to imagine. "I'm giving you a chance, so now... run."
