*WATTPAD FEATURED STORY*
Seventeen-year-old Rhea is fast, deadly, and on the run, her ability to evade capture determining the future of the kingdom of Etria. The once-exiled Witch King has usurped the throne, and Rhea posesses a desperate plan to raise the armies of the southern kingdom against him and restore the rightful queen. 

But it doesn't take long for her plans to sour when she finds herself hunted by dark forces she hardly understands. After a deadly accident, she becomes stuck with a mysterious stranger wearing odd silver cuffs, and while uncovering his secrets, her own past begins to unravel.

She has the power to save the kingdom--unless the demons of her past bring her down first.

Ice flooded my veins as the realization of who he was hit me. It must have been evident on my face because the man in front of me let out a dark laugh. "Oh dear, you didn't realize you were talking to a royal, did you darling?" he crooned. Not just any royal. Kesserian Cinis. The recently coronated king and ruler over the Ember Court. I forgot how to breathe, my mind whirring as it tried to figure out how I could have been so stupid as to let this happen. *************************************************** Wren Heatherfield is on the run. Having turned 18, she is now in danger of becoming selected for the Garner, a deadly game in which the six kings who rule over her continent take eighteen non-magical girls and make them fight for their lives. But as she tries to avoid the game by running away with her best friend and her sister, she consequently finds herself doomed to be a competitor in the 246th Garner. But the Garner isn't the only thing capable of killing her. In a castle surrounded by kings with dark powers and girls fighting for their lives, she may find that the politics of royalty can be just as deadly as their games.
