(Completed)
In a society where women have no rights, no titles, Azaziah strives to the first Empress, with power in her hands. She might succeed with the help of her husband, brother and her knight, but will she be able to keep the Darkness away or will sacrifices be the only way to ensure peace?
The night will break into dawn. The scattered pearls shall be gathered. And a sad song shall be sung.

Malik is put well together and never lets his mask fall. Emotions aren't his specialty, and the ones he has, he conceals behind a content mask, that only his inner circle gets to witness. He wears his pride like his crown and holds his head high. Malik is machine-made, and doesn't let his emotions control his better judgment. All of which evaporates when he lays eyes on his fiancé. But what happens when the world he's so familiar with comes crashing down right before his eyes and he's bound to marry a stranger, having to make up for his absent father's mess, again?

A businessman from the states, who possesses a British accent. Son of the Libyan foreign minister. With her hands tied to a stranger's she finds herself alone in a world she knows all too well. Both of them are strangers, but will they surprise each other? .

Serpent in Shackles by peachtwist3

Book 1 in a series! Despite what Emrys has been told, her Kingdom Abneer was not the only one to survive, King Reyes is not the only monarch, and monsters are real. Previously a soldier for the King, now betrothed to his son, Prince Roan, Emrys Ortega is starting to feel the burden of the title she never wanted. After repeatedly sneaking out of the palace leads to a sinister threat from the King, Emrys begins to worry for her family's safety. So when she learns that one of her kingdom's soldiers has been kidnapped by the Queen of another Kingdom, Valoria, she sees this as her opportunity to redeem herself in the King's eyes and protect her family. The only problem is that she had no idea the Kingdom of Valoria even existed. In fact, the Kingdom is unlike her own. It's filled with the same monsters from the stories she had been told-monsters of the night. In order to rescue the soldier, Emrys must team up with the notorious monster, the Shadow Knight, and his team of mercenaries. Through their missions and encounters with the monsters, Emrys not only learns the true extent of the lies she had been fed, but that the King has something planned, far bigger than she ever imagined, and finally realizes that her true enemies may not be the monsters after all.
