Winter Edison is a girl living in the medieval ages, a time of Kings and Queens. She is a motherless, abused, and lonely eighteen year old trying to survive in a world that tells her she is not wanted. 

Then one night in the woods leads Winter Edison into the presence of Bastian Nahario; the future king and her heart beats for the first time. Beats for love, hope, and joy. But, the prince is betrothed to another. 

What happens when a jealous princess feels threatened by Winter and her beauty? She takes matters into her own hands to destroy her. Will she succeed or fail?

In a world of status and the law of royalty only marrying royalty, will Winter retreat from Bastian and ignore her pressing feelings? Or will she forget the laws and let her heart take her to where it belongs?

Scarlett Rosalia is trapped in a shadowed world, weighed down by the pain of her past and the heaviness of simply surviving. Each day bleeds into the next, and the freedom of flight-of hope-feels like a distant memory. Alexander Knightly, a billionaire CEO with the world at his feet, is as cold and untouchable as the empire he commands. Hidden behind a mask of ruthless arrogance, he's built walls too high for anyone to climb. He knows nothing of Scarlett's suffering-until she breaks through his barriers, forcing him to confront the man behind the fortune. But saving her comes at a cost. As Scarlett begins to rise, her fragile wings falter, and the tide of despair threatens to pull her under for good. Alexander swore to protect her, but is his world truly safe for her? Can he, with all his power and pride, teach her to fly again? Or will they both fall victim to the weight of their scars? What if the past she's running from isn't the only secret waiting to be uncovered? ------------------------------ Link to my Pinterest Board, which inspired this story: https://pin.it/HFgsvoY I highly suggest viewing these images, as they are both beautiful and painful, and very well done.

"Every step you take away from me only drives you closer to the brink of my madness. You belong to me, Winter. Any alternative reality or illusion you hope for- I will destroy them until your very existence is entwined with mine." -𝐈𝐯𝐚𝐧 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐞 Eighteen-year-old Winter has always been a quiet shadow, a shy spy avoiding the perils of the spotlight. But when she's tasked with stalking five powerful Heirs, her carefully crafted invisibility shatters. Her mission is clear: erase their scandals, track their every move, and never draw attention. Yet, when she crosses paths with Ivan Arcane-the ruthless heir to one of the world's most powerful empires-everything changes. At first, Ivan saw her as dull and dependent, an insignificant watcher in the crowd. A beautiful doll to be kept locked and safe somewhere- an innocence belonging nowhere near him or his world. But when she makes one fatal mistake, he uncovers the sharp, wild mind she's concealed beneath fragile masks of pink and purples. Now, Ivan is obsessed, determined to dismantle her defenses and claim her as his own. And In a world where power rules, Winter is no longer the Hunter in the game -she's Ivan's fixation, a prey to a predator and he'll stop at nothing to change the very narrative of the fairy tale so the villain gets the girl in the end.

The only person besides her father who didn't seem to fear her was the handsome stable boy. He knew what she was and didn't cross himself before letting his hands touch hers longer than needed for helping her to her mount. And on her 18th birthday, neither could deny the bond that dragged them together. But her father had her sold off to make an advantageous match with the neighboring king's sullen and cruel son.
