Trapped in a world of power, betrayal, and blood-soaked lies, they both play dangerous games with deadly stakes. One protects their legacy, the other destroys and build their own legacy. One fights to protect their empire, unaware the person they cannot forget, is the one sharpening the blade aimed at their heart. They're not just playing the enemy-they're rewriting the rules, determined to destroy every ounce of their power. But in a world where nothing is what it seems, fate doesn't just ruins-it annihilates. When the dust settles, will their love rise from the ashes, or will they be consumed by the storm they've unleashed?

Innocence will be tested. Bonds will be forged-and broken. And in the quiet shadows of this enchanting realm, a single spark may ignite a storm. The journey begins. Will it lead to hope-or despair?

Some people merely adopt darkness, but she was born into it. Hiding every gloomy secret, covering all the lies, she walks through the life devoid of all emotions. They all labeled her, those silly people, if only they had stop for a moment and observed. Looked into her eyes and see the wreckage behind them, see the hurt and the pain behind that anger. Nobody noticed, nobody tried to care... until that someone. • • • They loath each other and there's nothing anyone could do. Winter and Ethan are like fire and ice, like darkness and light, like hurricane and tornado they don't mix at all. But, fate, my friend is one hell of a player. So, what will happen when Fate works it's magic and the two arch enemies are thrown together? Amidst all the chaos, heart breaks and tears, will the truth finally come out and surrender? or will it act just as stubborn as the person, who hid it. Copyright © mysteriouslypoetic 2018.

But the ruins whisper, the past lingers, and something unseen is watching. As visions of another life bleed into reality, Selene begins to question everything-who she is, who Valen really is, and the force that seems determined to keep them apart. Bound by fate, but haunted by something far more powerful, they must uncover the truth before it destroys them both.
