"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.

She was left with a man who claimed to be her uncle that wanted to take her in. But unfortunately, he is not a 'family' he claimed himself to be. So, she has to survive. Until fate brought her to meet them again. **The following story contains things which some readers may find distressing.
