Lobelia Lockhart, the daughter to a hard working woman who made a name for herself building a trading company called The Guilded Lily. She is known to most as Lady Lockhart. She became powerful and wealthy as her company grew. She was a business shark and could be as harsh as she was soft and loving. Many feared her power. On a very fateful day there was a hostile take over of her company, and not too long later most of her business was raided by bandits and pirates. Lobelia was at a young age at this time and only wanted to help and prayed to the gods for an answer. In her sleep a woman in white came to you in a dream. She spoke to her. She would give you power to be stronger than her mother and feared among mortals and give her mother a chance to rebuild, and in return you give your fealty to her and serve her as a patron. Lobelia agreed and were given a black moonstone necklace that holds a special connection to you and this deity. After some time she helped her mother rebuild, but it was hard to achieve since the Lockhart family lost most of their fortune and status. Lobelia is now well on her own, searching for a way to rebuild the Lockhart name, and be rid of the shadow that is now casted upon their name.

All I Need ✔️
"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.Complet
