Crown Princess Kyrenia "Ren" of Acanthus never wanted to be queen. After her brother's death, she's forced into the role. Now she's a prisoner in her family's castle, forced to give up school, swordplay, and the boy she loves. Even worse, she's being forced to marry a lord of her father's choosing, who's more concerned with the girth of her hips than what's in her head...or her heart.
Ren longs for one last night of freedom, but instead, consumes too much spiked punch and ends up vomiting at the feet of a village girl.
Ainslie Blackwater isn't having the best night either. A blacksmith's daughter, she was thrilled to find a beautiful dress belonging to her late mother, who was executed for being a sorceress. Ainslie thought wearing her mother's dress would make her feel closer to her, but instead it only made her feel worse.
Ren wants to be anonymous. Ainslie wants the kind of posh life she's only dreamed of. As Ainslie and Ren talk, they arrive at a crazy plan: Ainslie will forge armor for Ren so she can compete in a jousting tournament without being recognized. In turn, Ainslie will take Ren's place at the upcoming masquerade ball.
But there are bigger forces at play, and Ainslie is kidnapped by rebel forces, mistaken for the crown princess. Now, Ren must find her-a pauper who no one cares to rescue--before it's too late.
Neither realized their night of escape would awaken centuries-dead magic, throwing their world into a supernatural war.

Many don't know how she was born, some saying that she was the daughter of the blazing sun while others say that she was born from ashes during an alluring eclipse. The name they called her? Malaika Kya. Angel from the diamond sky. For eons she wandered, visiting many kingdoms and gaining many friends. She battled battles that many would have died from, protecting those she holds dear. Slowly, her family began to grow. Person by person, home by home, kingdom by kingdom. Her heart spreading the biggest of wings. But then it happened. The one she loved most was attacked, almost dying because of someone's idiocy. And so she fought. She fought for her dying family, soon gaining the powers of the internal flame buried deep inside her. Screeching her painful cry, she fought in her new form with all her might. But it wasn't enough as it's hand sprouted from her body. Tears fell from the eyes of her lover, his eyes wide as he watched her body wither in pain. Hey dark eye were gentle a she watched his physical pain disappear, his wounds sealed shut as he snatched her closer one more time. Softly she apologized, saying words she wanted so badly to say before sealing their goodbye with a kiss.

All I Need ✔️
"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.Concluída
