And when a new threat sets his sights on Emily and her daughter, Olivia... everything begins to crack. Xavier will burn the world down to protect them. Emily will stand beside him. No matter the cost. But in a world built on power, secrets, and blood... love can save you. Or destroy you.

Two royal families. Once bound by loyalty... now divided by silence... The Rathore's rule in shadows... The Suryavanshi's control power in plain sight... Between them lies a past no one speaks of- two deaths, one betrayal, and a truth buried deep enough to start a war. When Aarohi Suryavanshi returns, she doesn't just walk back into her legacy- she walks into a game she was never meant to understand. And then there's Aryan Rathore- cold, controlled, and everything she was taught to hate. But some enemies don't stay enemies... And some truths don't stay buried... As secrets unravel and alliances shift, love becomes the most dangerous risk of all. Because in a world built on power and betrayal- falling in love might cost them everything.

« Les guerres ne sont qu'une larme d'encre souillant le parchemin de l'histoire. Impuissant, on ne peut que les observer s'abattre, et tenter de sauver ceux qui nous sont chers. » Il était une fois, dans les contrées luxuriantes et vallonnées du Warldiel, des temps semés d'incertitudes... Un jour, de sombres présages apparurent et l'équilibre précaire établi dix ans plus tôt à la suite des croisades des Monarchies Thaumaturges chancela. À l'est, les ambitions grandissantes d'un sultan belliqueux ravivèrent de vieilles tensions ; à l'ouest, la paresse, la luxure et la corruption émoussèrent la vigilance des rois et seigneurs. Et au centre de ce monde, la légendaire cité d'Arval, plaque tournante de deux cultures et symbole de la foi des Neuf-Seigneurs, s'enlisa dans la tourmente. La guerre est déjà là, clament certains, et nul n'a la bravoure de se dresser contre cette tragédie prophétisée. Pourtant, au cœur de cette valse sanguinaires des royaumes, pris dans une tempête de lames et de souffrances, deux jeunes personnes fredonnent de concert une symphonie... une symphonie vindicative, pour survivre ; la geste de Rohan et Lyrna.

Siege - Book III of The Harvest Wars Series. Mighty Covenport, jewel of the Boiling Sea, has fallen to the walking dead. Yet in the Scarred Empire, that most powerful and ancient of the human realms, the plague of the undead is a common threat, as ordinary as the storms that ravage sea and land. Mighty armies gather, joined in their desire to liberate the city - and plunder as much of its spoils as possible. Yet what at best should have been a minor adventure in the Empire's long history of its war against the undying might very well be its ultimate downfall. For the dead that plague the city are no mindless vermin - they are united, controlled by beings that once were the Empire's greatest heroes: the Thirteen. While the armies of these Deathlords rise to do battle with their mortal enemies, it once more falls to the Scarlands most infamous band of mercenaries to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Will the Skulltakers cheat death once more or will they join its ranks?

"What do you want?" She asked. Panicked, backing away. The vampire followed, stepping forward, dangerously close, looking her over. "You." His voice deep, growling. "Me?" "You." " Me? No, you don't. You think you do, but you don't. It is a mistake." "No it's not." "I came for you, Andie." He grabbed her by the waist, pulled her in close and nudged his face into her neck. "Oh god, don't bite her," Davis pleaded. "Please don't bite her." "Davis you are tired, go relax. Go back to her apartment and sleep." "No Davis, stay here." He left at the vampire's last word. "Please listen to me," she begged.Holding her hands up against his chest. "Shh shh shh. do not fear me." He assured her, whispering softly in her ear. Making her weak in the knees. "But I am afraid this is.'' She stuttered. ''This was. You see there was an accident. I sprayed you with a love potion." "A love potion? How sweet." He began to nibble at her neck. She could not help liking the way he felt against her. But quickly reminded herself. HE IS A VAMPIRE! "No really, it is not sweet at all. It was an accident. I had it in my bag thinking it was mace, I wanted to mace you," she explained. "I suppose that's nicer then," he said to her. "No, that's not nice at all. But you grabbed me, and well, that's what you deserved." "I was trying to warn you to run, meant you no harm." "No. I suppose you didn't, but you got sprayed, and now you love me, it is not real love." The vampire struggled to not laugh. Silly mortal. He let her go on. © Copyright 2014 Aronel Loni.

Born from the storm between Aphrodite's vanity and Ares' wrath, abandoned to the Underworld, and raised by Deimos, she learned that love and fear share the same heartbeat.

Gods desired her, mortals worshiped her, and even Death himself could not ignore her. But every love she touches drowns. Every vow she makes becomes a curse. This is not a romance.

Let's see what bleeds out. (Prologue has a list of possible trigger warnings, as ⚠️ This story contains mature emotional themes, psychological manipulation, and mythic depictions of violence.
