As The Great Sickness threatens the country, Princess Daaé becomes Commander of the King's Army and her polished life comes to a halt. Pens are replaced with swords, embroidery needles with arrows, and poetry lessons with battle horses. Years later, she meets a man who tells her that she contains an ancient secret that will forever change the way she thinks, loves and fights.
"Every Warrior of the Light has felt afraid of going into battle. Every Warrior of the Light has, at some point, lied or betrayed someone. Every Warrior of the Light has trodden a path that was not hers. Every Warrior of the Light has suffered for the most trivial reasons. Every Warrior of the Light has, at least one, believed she was not a Warrior of the Light. Every Warrior of the Light has failed in her duties. Every Warrior of the Light has said 'yes' when she wanted to say 'no'. Every Warrior of the Light has hurt someone she loved. This is why she is a Warrior of the Light - because she has been through all this and yes has never lost hope of being better than she is."

Betrothed
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 WarComplete

I'd fight the whole world for you." The crown prince has always felt trapped-by duty, by expectation, by the weight of a crown he doesn't want. Now, he's being forced into a marriage with a foreign princess to secure the kingdom's future. But his heart belongs to someone else. He is conflicted, torn between his duty and the feelings he can't quite understand, unsure of what it means for his heart and his sexuality. The knight sworn to protect him has always kept his distance. Bound by an oath of loyalty, he knows his place is at the prince's side, not in his arms.
