In the night when the kingdom of Incantasi has been conquered by the tyrant Henry, Cassandra Monfort is born-a girl who could save the kingdom from the evil ruler's hands. When the seal appears on her twelfth year, her whole life changes. King Henry orders the execution of her parents, and it happens before her very eyes. But luckily, Cassandra is saved by a group of bandits who takes her in their care. She vows for revenge, an oath to make the tyrant pay for her parents' unjust death. Bryce, the leader of the bandits, hides her identity by making her dress up like a man and trains her to be a fighter under her new name, Miles. A plan is all she has. But things get shaky when she meets the Prince of Incantasi, Lancelot. The once driven Miles finds herself falling for the man who is the enemy's son. Will she choose her heart or the fate of the kingdom that lies in her hands?

Cashile Kuroki is alone. No family, and no friends. Not exactly hated, just.... ignored. Just how she likes it. She's viewed as reckless and ambitious, but she's always in control. Every move is calculated, every person is observed. She controls people, her "friends", her life. Yet, there's the mystery: why does she care for her selfish ambitions alone? Why is she bent on proving that she can be the best by herself? Will she ever learn to give up her act of strength, and trust? Or will she fall, the cause of her own destruction? Genius only goes so far, and the flaws and frailties will eventually catch up to her. The act of strength is, after all, only an act.

A LINE UNBROKEN. A TRUTH UNSPOKEN. Born into wealth and privilege as the niece of an emperor, Starborn Lady Mhera never dreamt that tragedy would shatter her world. But darkness roils beneath the peaceful facade of the Holy City: a rebellion is brewing among the Arcborn-the dangerous, magic-blooded undercaste of Penrua-and they will stop at nothing to destroy the peace of the realm. That much is proven to Mhera when she is just a girl and her greatest treasure is taken from her. Years later, still wounded by the evil the Arcborn wrought against her, she is on the brink of professing her final vows as a nun...but before she can accept the life of safety and solitude she doesn't truly desire, she is offered a chilling compromise with fate that threatens everything she has ever known.
