Every year, the kingdom of Creissea holds the annual Midsummer Festival, where each of the eight days and eight nights are spent drinking, dancing, and celebrating under the protection of a mask. Established centuries ago under the rule of King Leopold in order to maintain peace, harmony, and understanding among Creissea's citizens, it is the one time of the year where nobles and commoners are treated as equals. Elena Blakesley is a member of the Ath Seyan, a secret group of highly trained magic wielders and warriors sworn to protect the Creissean people from evil. When word of a plot to end King Aleksey's life during the Midsummer Festival reaches their ears, Elena and her unit are sent up to the palace to keep an eye on him. Between playing babysitter to a troublesome young King, finding a rumored assassin, and navigating a crowd where everyone is a potential enemy guised under a veil of anonymity, they definitely have their work cut out for them. Enemies lurk around every corner in the Creissean royal court. In a room full of masked people, no one can be trusted. And when things start to turn into a game of power, politics, and intrigue, one wrong move could prove to be just as deadly as Elena's blade.

Despite her great beauty- equal to her cousin, Isabella- Sancha has been forcibly shoved aside, even buried by her family's history and image. Unacknowledged, alternately hated or forgotten by her wealthy duke of a father, Sancha initially resigns herself to the happy life as her loving and beloved cousin's lady-in-waiting, with few knowing that she was the duke's illegitimate daughter. But dark winds came, bringing foreign corsairs raiding close to their shores, thanks to the negligience and weakness of their king. Sancha risks her life to ensure her cousin's safety- something which causes immeasurable anguish to both 'sisters', as they will not see each other for many years to come. Captured and and sold to Istanbul, the heart of the Ottoman Empire, She is brought and tutored her in a lady's education and court intrigues. Her purpose becomes clear: she is to enter the harem, as soon as a new sultan, likely the Prince Mehmed, ascends the throne, as a gift... And into his bed. While Sancha may mourn and grieve for her loved ones, there is only one direction: forward. But there are four paths one can go whilst inside the Ottoman harem: the first is to be killed; either by being stupid, or careless. The second, is to be good enough to stand out, but not as good as the others, which will guarantee your marriage to a wealthy nobleman or a high-ranking officer as a reward. The third option is to be so mediocre, so hopeless that she will disappear, forgotten, never to be freed, locked away for life. The fourth option is to enter the sultan's bed, and fight to become his favourite, bear and train his son, and fight to ensure your son survives to become the next sultan. But once she enters the game, she has to fight for the sultan's love and her children's survival, or they will die. Yet is there more than this? Is there a way to capture the sultan's heart and keep it with her for life? Is there a man beneath the jewelled crown, hidden by the army?

I am dying - it was inevitable. The poison given to me over the course of several months have spread throughout my veins and seep through my bones. I was alone. There was not one single person to hold me, to comfort me, or to cry for me... I am all alone... NOTE from the writer: I'm an amateur writer so please overlook plot holes, grammar issues, or anything else a story is supposed to have. This is my original story so... as the saying goes "if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all".
