Aileenloves
Rosaline Deveraux has lived a quiet life with her family. She's the daughter of Viscount Deveraux and given the power of light: a rare ability to banish spirits and demons that most believe to be myth. But when an unexpected royal decree tears her from her home one stormy evening, Rosaline finds herself thrust into a marriage she never wanted - to the Crown Prince of the Empire.
Prince Charteris Escalante D'Aques is cold, commanding, and haunted - literally. Night after night, tormented by spirits no priest or scholar can banish, he scours the royal archives in desperation. Only one name appears in every forbidden text: Rosaline Deveraux. Without her consent, he binds her to him in marriage, believing her to be the only weapon that can save his soul and preserve the throne.
But Rosaline is no quiet savior. When Charteris tries to control her, to dictate what she can do with her powers, where she can go, but she pushes back - hard. Their clash is immediate and fierce, and hatred blooms in the shadow of palace halls.
And the threat also grows stronger, but not from the spirits, but also darkness threatens the empire from within, neither Rosaline's light nor Charteris's power will be enough - unless they find a way to fight together.
