"Odette," Father said kicking the prince in his side. 
Hunter gave a whispery groan from his place in the dirt. "Take him with you. If we wish to turn him into a weapon we must...treat him with some degree of descency. Oh, and find him some clothes while your at it," Father finished.

"But where will he stay?" 

"With you," Father said and he snapped his fingers and vanished.
............................................................................................................................................
Odette is half human and half fae. She was spirted away by her father after he brutally murdered her mother and declared war on the human kingdom. She both reveres and fears the high fae and her father's tumultuous rule. Then the prince of the human kingdom is captured and it sets off a chain of events that send Odette's life into an even more chaotic downward spiral. 

Prince Hunter is both hated and revered by his own people. He is hated because of a curse that has afflicted him since he was a child. The curse causes his body to grow black thorns. However, he revered for his unholy fighting prowess that is used to kill the fae army. Then he is captured, and his life become even more unpredictable.

"The Blind God walks around me, and I feel my mind prodded again like it was in the cavern, a spider weaving a tangled web. "Would you do anything to be remembered, Ode, even play a villain, the one who rises against the Chosen One?" In answer, I draw my dagger and make a slight incision against my thumb. Blood drips down, hot against my flesh. I hold my hand out as an oath, a promise. My ghouls hiss, yearning to drink. "I would rather reign over darkness than grovel as a servant to the light." *FEMALE ROBIN HOOD MEETS ONE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS* Ode Ngayoh is the only child of a bloodthirsty desert warlord. When the Blind God chooses her as champion, she's deemed a dark witch, a blemish against the Empire for her necromantic powers of summoning ghūls, the undead. Facing off against the prince and his handsome lover, Ode stands alone with the cursed god's favor. However, the more Ode defends the outcasts of the Empire, the more she finds herself being labelled a villain...
