*NEW CHAPTERS regularly* The kingdom of Varkyr has been taken and the royal family has been killed, and now Princess Skye Sideris is running away from her home, her family, everything she knows. If she wants to save her kingdom, she needs to fight. She can't do this as well as she would like to because of a deadly disease creeping inside her. Once she is put to the test, there is only one thing she can do to be cured, the only thing that might turn all the gods against her: make a deal with a demon. Now that she is cured and has a new powerful ally, she is running for her life towards the only one she trusts, Prince James of Dalya. But Jamie has problems of his own. Being chosen to be the High King is difficult in three main ways. You have to be as good as or better than your father while you try to save his life from a mysterious disease that has put him in a coma. You need to deal with the pressure of ruling the five kingdoms at twenty years of age. And especially, most importantly, you need to stay alive long enough to be crowned. Luckily, James is well-protected, or that's what he thinks before he meets Lieutenant Cillian Dorsey, the most well-known killer in all the five kingdoms. But when Cillian realizes he's not the only one after James, he also discovers a new, much more dangerous enemy: magic. And now, Cillian is convinced the High King is not sick, he has been cursed. So now James and Cillian will travel together in a temporary truce through the five kingdoms in the hopes of finding the source of this dark magic and defeating it, Myrine will get her kingdom back and Darcy, her new demon, will experience life as a mortal human for the first time.
