Lucas Young is missing. Dead, more likely, but no one wants to admit that truth; no one except for Lyra.
On the anniversary of her best friends disappearance, Lyra is ready to accept the inevitability of his death. But when mysterious men show up at her home, threatening her life and that of her family, she too disappears from the town, kidnapped.
But it isn't the local gang that's taken her captive; these men are far, far worse. These men aren't human.

"Listen, milady, we don't like to glamour people, but we will if we have to. Come with us freely and your family will not be harmed."
The man's eyes bore into mine, his face so beautiful it was deadly. The cruelty of his actions could never match the smooth darkness of his iris', so black and cold against the whites of his eyes. It was like watching the ocean waves crash against the shore at midnight. If it were possible, I would jump into his eyes and swim in their depths for eternity. I wanted to vomit, to scream, to cry, to do anything but go with the two strangers in front of me, no matter how alluring I found their eyes.
And yet, all I could bring myself to do was ask:
"Where will you take me?"
His eyes did not move from my own as he spoke.
"To the Kingdom of Light."

But it was no use as a powerful force dragged me closer and closer to book, I let out a scream as I was then sucked in. "Hey, miss.." I heard a soft voice call, "Miss, please wake up. You can't sleep there, you'll catch a cold." I opened my eyes with a groan, my vision blurred for a moment. It soon cleared up and I was shocked when I saw a handsome young man with soft eyes standing directly over me. "Ahh!!" "Ahh!!" He shouted, backing up from me as I sat up. "Who- Who are you?" I looked around, noticing that I was no longer in my library at home. Instead, I was laying on soft, green lush grass in the middle of the forest. "Where am I?" I looked back at the young man, taken back by his handsomeness. His eyes softened for a moment, before widening and he opened his mouth. "Oh, my gosh!! The prophecy Came true!!!" "What prophecy?"

And Pyxis, the fairy city they preside over, has never been more peaceful or prosperous. This is the appearance they need the fairy world to behold. The truth is too cruel to fathom. They are painfully vulnerable. Evil is never very far. So they bury it deep and cling to the hope it won't claw its way out. Scott MacRae knows in his gut that Andromeda will return and that his days could be numbered. It's no wonder he can't focus or sleep at night. His heart is full of holes. There is only one void he can possibly fill - if any. But as both a father and leader, any action he takes will have profound consequences. Joseph believes what he wants to believe - that which makes him admired and respected, a fairy celebrity, everything he wasn't in his former human life. But his truth lurks in the shadows too.

Cassiopeia was always a princess, but for the first time ever, she's assumed the lifestyle she was never granted during her mother's reign.

She is not her mother. Her world never fails to remind her. Does it even matter? It's hard to say. Something is missing. Or someone. And she isn't who she once was. The higher they rise, the harder they'll fall? Christopher MacRae. He left four years ago and no one has heard from him since. Is he dead or alive? Is he the solution or the problem? And where is Andromeda anyway? If Christopher and his allies haven't vanquished what remains of her army...then who will?Complete
