"You're atheist," I remind him. "You don't believe in god." "I believe in you," He murmurs, letting the cigarette hang from his lips. "I believe in whatever you believe." He says, letting the confession roll off his tongue as if it were that simple. As if god, the devil, heaven, hell-as if none of it really had meaning to him. "That's not how it works," I mutter as we walk down a few more alleyways-the city of Manhattan coated in a light blanket of snow. Henry Vitiello had never had anything to pray for, that is, until he met me-the only thing that had ever opened his mind up to the possibility of religion "Isn't it?" He argues, taking the cigarette by his middle and pointer finger before blowing the smoke out. "I'II dip my hands in holy water if it means I could touch you." "You'd probably burn." 𓆩♡𓆪 𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐑𝐘 𝐕𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐎, the reaper. He's a prick. An asshole. A pretentious son of a bitch. He's not perfect. He's not even decent. But he's hers.

In a realm where nobody knows who to trust, the one constant in Lyrani Esch's life is her job as an agent for the Elven Council of Irylen Secret Intelligence (ECISI). It's easy enough to ignore the rumours about the villainy of the elf king Nash. People call it "The Curse of the Crown", but it's all hearsay. At least until Lyrani is assigned a mission to confront it. Her objectives are simple - get into Vlitavia Palace, gather intelligence on King Nash's operations, kill him and get out. But assignments are never as easy as they sound, and the stars are against Lyrani from the start. The deeper Lyrani delves into Nash's present, the more she learns of her past. With her startling discoveries comes the realisation that she must free Nash from a vicious trap or forfeit the realm and both their lives in the name of the curse. Because destinies entwined are never easily separated. Season 1 of A Sprinkle of Stardust WARNING: This story contains strong language and depictions of sexual assault that may be upsetting for some readers. Reader discretion is advised.
