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.

*WATTPAD FEATURED* *UNEDITED* "You can't erase the pain, nor can I. You can't erase the reasons behind my fake smiles, you can't change the past, nor can I. We can't turn each other's faith, we can't vanish each other's mistakes, but I promise, I promise you that through all your regrets, pain and heartbreaks, I will be there for you, I will be there for you to love you, to support you, to be your pillar. I will always be there with you, in the same road. Yah, I can't promise to make the pain go away but, but I promise that you will not face it alone, you're never going to face it alone. We are going to do that together, for each other." - The Golden Girl **************************************** ©iiqueenbee_ | 2018 Featured by : @talentscouts Completed.
