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.

All I Need ✔️ by Chronically-Chaotic

"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.

EVERMORE: Eadric's Chronicles by DWBarrington

This is the 1st half of the EVERMORE Prequels. Check out the 2nd half EVERMORE: Talindra's Chronicles, on my profile now! In the ancient realm of Evermore, a land steeped in magic and marred by conflict, an age-old war rages between two mighty races-the humans and the elves. Bound by a tumultuous history of bloodshed and mistrust, their bitter enmity threatens to consume the very fabric of the world they call home. Amidst this turbulent backdrop, we embark on a gripping tale that follows the extraordinary journey of Eadric Lightbringer, a formidable battlemage hailing from the town of Ravenhold. Eadric, a man burdened by the weight of destiny, finds himself thrust into a realm of unfathomable darkness, where courage will be tested, alliances will crumble, and secrets long forgotten will surface with devastating consequences. As the fragile balance of power teeters on the edge, Eadric's path converges with the ancient prophecies whispered in shadowed corridors. A reluctant hero, he must navigate treacherous landscapes and face both the savagery of the elven forces and the inner demons that haunt his own soul. With his mastery of the arcane arts and a flickering glimmer of hope, Eadric strives to bridge the chasm of hatred that divides his people, searching for a means to forge a lasting peace in a land consumed by war.

The Prophecy of Water | TheWattys2018 Shortlister ✔️ by EvelynHail

[Wattys2018 Shortlist] [Bootcamp Mentorship Mentee 2020] [Insidious Awards - 1st place/Action/Adventure] "Squinty, I... Help me! Please! You have to help me!" Squinty huffed at him as the horse might snort at an annoying fly it couldn't get rid of. "A...a... an apple," he stammered. "I just... stole an apple!" ---- When water is controlled by those in power, even a mere apple can be a catalyst. For Squinty, it was the start of everything. Finding Grizzly. Losing Roko. Becoming a Vigil. Discovering she had the power to become invisible. For Nalina, the threat of a new Water War was even closer to home; her beloved brother was the one initiating it. To Drian, water formed the core of his belief system, defined who was - and was not - worthy, and justified the treatment of the underground-dwelling Wellers. An orphan girl, determined to do what was right. A princess, petitioning for peace. An abbot, torn between his religion, and his experience. Each with an Etching, a unique power that surely makes them special; a tie to something more, something extra, something beyond the Squareworld.

Bleeding Hearts by bbllaacckkaangel

"I take what I want, princess, no matter what." TRUTH is hidden behind the LIES. Secrets are buried within the secrets. Darkness lurks in the Light and Light breathes in the Darkness. A tale of "BLOOD, SACRIFICES, AND OATH" What will be the outcome when their worlds collide? Will they be each other's salvation or each other's demise? My works are the outcome of my wild and roller-coaster crazy imagination that I nurtured with dedication and great love. Cheap liberalism and unwanted feminism are neither appreciated here nor wanted. So, if you have some self-esteem issues then take it elsewhere because I will report and block every negative comment and commentator. I hold all the rights under my name and by all laws. So think before trying to copy/paste and plagiarism. Cheating doesn't sit well with me and I am not generous with forgiveness. Happy Reading :)

Betrothed by CinderPuppyEyes

My life was one born in towers of gold with impenetrable windows. My life was one of nobility, aristocracy. Silver blood ran through my veins and it made me one of the Acier; a Princess of the Acier. Until those windows became ruptured. All my life I have never had the chance to breathe outside the walls of my home; then I met him. I am a girl betrothed to one I do not love yet am surrounded by people who have managed to enter the crevices of my heart. I should have known that not even my golden windows could have protected me from my destiny. I should have known that my crown would cost me my security. I should have known that all along that the only solution to cure the world was to paint my hands in the blood of those who threatened to uproot any evil we had worked so hard to hide. In that moment, I was no longer betrothed to anyone who held flesh or blood; I was betrothed to the cold steel of my sword and the promise I made to protect the lands until my dying breath. ❝ Best Rankings ❞ #25 in Princesses #49 in Feminism #95 in Warrior #49 in Silver #3 in Steel #5 in Betrothed #175 in Kingdom #361 in Princess #386 in Prince #354 in lovetriangle #2 in Royaume #2 in summer2017 #556 in War

Veil of Vengeance by Ifraafatima

"A kingdom ruled by fear. A princess bound by secrets. A vengeance that could shatter it all." Princess Alethea of Arcanvale is feared and revered in equal measure. Ruthless, cunning, and unyielding, she wields her power with precision, a perfect weapon molded by her father, King Mario. But beneath her icy exterior lies a woman haunted by the loss of her sister, Aurora, and the suspicion that her father's ambitions may be tied to her greatest tragedy. Across the ruined lands of Eldrid, Prince Kairen burns with hatred. The last surviving heir to a kingdom destroyed by Arcanvale, he has spent years honing his strength and strategy, preparing for the day he would take his revenge. To him, Alethea is nothing more than a pawn in the twisted games of her tyrannical father-a pawn he intends to destroy. When their paths cross, sparks ignite into flames, and their hatred pushes them into a dangerous battle of wills. But as Alethea uncovers secrets about her family's dark past and the blood-soaked pact that binds their kingdoms, she and Kairen are forced to confront a terrifying truth: their fates are intertwined in ways neither could have foreseen. With kingdoms teetering on the edge of war, betrayal lurking at every turn, and a curse that threatens them all, Alethea and Kairen must decide what matters more-vengeance or the chance to break the cycle of destruction that has haunted them both. **"Veil of Vengeance"** is an epic tale of betrayal, redemption, and the thin line between love and hate. Perfect for fans of slow-burn romance, dark fantasy, and morally grey characters, this enemies-to-lovers journey will leave you breathless.

Princess Aebbé of Ardam, haunted by memories of a flash of lightning and burning flesh, returns to her home amidst a seemingly hopeless war. But all is not as it seems in Raven's Peak, and the greatest danger to Ardamland may be from within. More than a millennium later Laelia Darkwood, princess of the elves, feels that she doesn't truly belong in ArBrae Forest. Her fears are solidified by a series of events that would challenge the foundations of her understanding of who she is. Khairrim Cadeyrn, the Second of the Council, protects countless secrets. As Lord of Water and Elves, he knows what happened to the dragons, what lead to the murder of the Seventh of the Council, and the dark secrets behind King Ardam's successful conquests. However, his biggest secret is the one his family, The Council, and Ligtland must never discover. How do events more than a millennium apart tie together? Why does no-one know why Aebbé of Ardam was cursed? Will Laelia unravel the mystery of the loss that is evident in Khairrim's blue eyes? *** Sometimes in order to find your path you have to get lost; sometimes you need to build the path; and sometimes your path is destined to lead you to places and people you never knew you lost. *** The Chronicles of the Council - Book 1 *** Highest rankings: 13 in #fantasy 10 April 2019 9 in #fantasy 6 July 2019 20 in #highfantasy 6 July 2019 16 in #fantasyadventure 6 July 2019 Featured on Wattpad's High Fantasy reading list Winner of The Disco Awards 2019
