The fairytales taught us wrong and so did all our books. Humans were never the most advanced beings on the planet that we call earth. How could they be? When all they did was tear each other down viciously, and in their dirty, murky swamp of politics drowned all who were helpless and vulnerable. There was still a world unknown to these petty humans. A world where magic was never questioned, yet technology blended in seamlessly. A world where the rulers knew how to play the dangerous game of power. The Mer-world with it's seven kingdoms was the most prosperous civilization to have ever existed on earth. And the seven kings and queens of this world were respected beyond measures. The royals had all that they could ask for, yet there was a silent flame of desire which lurked in their hearts. The desire to see, at least, if not possess the 'Star of the Ocean: Maristella', the daughter of the Great Lady of Kindness, the goddess whose name they were not supposed to pronounce. She would soon be born again as the crown princess of the kingdom of Oceana. But no one knew when she will appear in this era. And when she finally appears, her identity is concealed from the rest of the world apart from those who were trusted enough to live in the Oceanian palace, for she holds 'the key' to the entire power structure of the ocean world. But what happens when a silent war starts to brew in her life because to most people in this cruel world, she is just a means to attain limitless power? Yet she knew that as long as there are people who love her endlessly, not because they want her power, but simply because she as a being is precious to them, she will remain safe. And what happens when the bonds of deepest love start to break? Will she be lost forever? End herself? Or like the perfect daughter of a goddess, reign her kingdom with powerful hands?

Life for Callie had never been an easy one but it was something she had gotten used to. For this emotionally lonely girl, it entailed balancing school with work, taking care of her mentally ill dad and dealing with a pointless high school drama that she had been webbed in. But when her dad got arrested for something he didn't do, Callie took it upon herself to appeal to the person who put him there. What she didn't expect was to get tangled up with the quiet, emerald-eyed Larkin Hammell and opening up her fragile heart to a boy with more baggage than she ever had. Larkin Hammell had enough scars on his face and his heart, likewise, to last a lifetime. He had become a shadow of his former self and all he wanted was to be left alone to wallow in his pain and grief. Hiding away from the world and wearing the guilt of his past on his sleeves were all part of Larkin's plans. Then everything changed when fate swept her into his life unexpectedly. Is love ever enough to fix the fragments of a broken heart or is it all you need to pick up the remaining pieces before it gets completely shattered? *** 👑1st place - Monarchy Awards (Teen Fiction Category) 👑1st place - The Innovation Awards (Romance Category) 👑1st place - The Ulven Awards (Romance Category) 👑 Winner of "Best Fantasy" Category - Nigerian Readers Choice Awards 👑3rd place - The Noble Awards (Teen Fiction Category) Readers' Reviews - "Is this really chapter 1?
