"You'd be surprised how far anyone would go to protect someone they trust."

To be Chosen as a Knightess on Knightess Day is a blessing. It means that you have the blood of the gods running through your veins. It means that you would give up your life to protect the Queen's with no hesitation. It means that you would do anything to see the kingdom safe from enemies. It means that if you fail to do your job it becomes a curse.

Althea is terrified of Knightess Day. Especially since she's turned eighteen, which means that she and every girl her age in villages across the kingdom must enter into a competition where the chance for being Chosen as a Knightess is either high for you or very low. To be Chosen is practically a death sentence, not only for her but for her twin brother and grandmother. She knows this because her mother was a Knightess, before she was brutally murdered by an assassin while defending the Queen. 

On the morning of Knightess Day Althea, while walking in the woods, meets two mysterious strangers who give her a simple yet frightening warning: do not get Chosen. Then they disappear.

Suddenly, Althea is unwillingly Chosen by the Head Knightess and is forced to go with the other Knightesses to the Queen's palace. And now her brother's life is in danger.

When you are at your lowest there is only one thing you can do and that is to rise. Our protagonist went through some tough sh*t and then like a phoenix she was born again from her ashes.

I am sure you will like it. "Romantic dates, public declaration of love, standing by her side when going gets tough. Girls were jealous of her for getting such a loving and attentive mate or so she thought. It wasn't jealousy that seared their bond but the hidden truth that she stumbled upon. Daughter of an alpha, a girl who wears her heart on her sleeve, sheltered from world by her herculean father, over protective twin and annoying younger brother. A girl that looks at world in good faith. Sooner than later her faith was shredded to pieces. It happened a week before her 18th birthday. It was a moon less night but her pack was awash with light and cheer. It was for marking ceremony, where she would be marked by her mate and then after a private family gathering they were to leave for secluded wood that were sacred in its own way. It was a way to welcome her mate into the family and getting to know what was in store for him after they complete their mating when she turned eighteen. All in all it was a big day and she was supposed to be happiest person alive as nothing seem better then bonding to someone for life that makes you happy and love you for who you are. But alas! it was an illusion, a beautiful mirage that ended that day." To know what happened next you have to tag along, i will only say one thing, HELL HATH NO FURY LIKE A WOMEN SCORNED. ~SK.

Damsel Knight

11 parts Complete

Sometimes the best knight is a damsel. In a world where women are seen as weak, defenceless creatures for men to protect and own, one orphan girl wants to be different. She dreams of being a knight. Slaying dragons, taking down armies with her father's sword. Only her foster parents don't agree with her views. On the night of her betrothal to a man over twice her age, the King's soldiers come to their tiny village, and in the chaotic aftermath she's left with a choice. Go back to life she knows and marry a man she despises. Or journey onward and risk death to earn the knighthood she dreams of. The road forward isn't a safe one for a girl travelling with only her foster brother as company. Magic lurks in dark places. Vengeance burrows deep in many equally dark hearts. And all around the circle armies are gathering to defend the Kingdom against a threat not seen for a thousand years. This is the first part of the 140 thousand word fantasy adventure.
