Aileen loved Andreas long before the world knew his name.

Inseparable since childhood, it was only natural when romance blossomed between them. Aileen knew him better than anyone else... or so she thought. When Andreas discovers that he is one of the last remaining members of the Aurelio family-- a family that has ruled the distant country of Ceaterra for centuries-- he disappears and leaves Aileen confused and heartbroken.

Already devastated, tragedy strikes again in the form of her mother's murder, and Aileen's world comes crashing down. Her father is convinced Andreas is the one who killed her mother. Now, she feels nothing but hatred for the person she used to love.

When two women approach Aileen and offer her an opportunity to assassinate Andreas, Aileen sees no other option. She is determined to avenge her mother's death and stop Andreas from coming to power. But Aileen quickly realizes that there is a much bigger plot at work than her plan for revenge, and the boy that she once knew may be a piece in a game that neither one of them agreed to play.

"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.

My dagger poised over his heart I scornfully asked the king,❝Any last words, your highness?❞ ❝It was never me.❞ I plunged my weapon downwards, sending blood spurting. The crimson substance was spilling from his mouth like red wine. I twisted my dagger and then pulled it out of his chest. The marble floors were now stained with his blood and I gazed as it seeped through his white shirt. ❝Your reign is over. ❞ ________________ Andromeda Holloway is pulled into a realm of lies and memories when she finds out she's one of them. Flesh and bone in this world but one never meant to be in it until the day he returns to take her back, 4 years after she arrived. Memories of another world, a world that is nothing more but ink on a page, resurface and so does the memory of this man, the one who she was set to marry 4 years ago. But what if it's all a lie? What if her faith is tied to something different, one of the few memories that didn't seem to return, perhaps? Bloody powerplays and trickery are woven into this fairytale grandeur but what if there's someone out there, silently protecting her for fear of losing his life like he once almost did. The only problem is... it's not the one who came for her... ___________ All pictures found on Pinterest including the cover image. I do not own any of them unless I say so.
