When siblings Lisette and Sabien Olivay are surprised by their parents with arranged marriages, they are unable to decline despite their desires to do so. Soon they are both removed from the city to the seaside town of Seldoné where they will spend the year prior to Sabien's wedding with his bride-to-be and her family. Although the hope is that Sabien will become better acquainted with his fiancé Genevieve and possibly fall in love with her, it seems that Lisette is the one who falls in love instead.
Author's Note:
- This is only the second draft of the story, it is my intention to improve upon what I have written.
- I publish at least one part every Friday night.
- Because I have a complete rough draft of the story I guarantee that I will not leave it unfinished, I have spent too much time and effort to give up on it and will continue to publish it even if there are brief hiatuses every now and then.
- I thoroughly appreciate and acknowledge polite and constructive criticism. I want my story to be enjoyable to read and so I enjoy getting input from the readers.

Crown of Shadows
In Tenebris, love is a weapon - and the most beautiful promises are the ones designed to break you. Lady Selene of House Auclair has spent her life in silence, haunted by a bloodline the Empire wants forgotten. Her betrothal to Prince Reverien Latimer is not mercy. It is a warning. The court calls it peace. But beneath the marble floors and moonlit halls, everyone knows this union was forged with ulterior motives - power, punishment, and something far darker. The Imperial Court is a nest of predators draped in silk. Smiles hide sharpened teeth. Secrets bleed through the walls. And Selene, the quiet noblewoman they dismissed, is far more dangerous than they realized. Her fiancé is no exception. Reverien is a man carved from discipline and shadows - a prince with cold hands, a colder reputation, and loyalties bound in blood. Yet he is drawn to Selene in ways neither of them can afford. Their bond is not gentle. It is a slow-burning collision of defiance, desire, and unspoken hunger - a partnership that could save an empire... or shatter it from within. As whispers sharpen into threats and forbidden longing coils between them, Selene must decide which is more perilous: the danger stalking the court... or the prince who shares her bed. Because in Tenebris, a single kiss can crown you - or condemn you.
