Silver Storm (Merlin x OC/reader)

To be tainted is to be sick.

Sick with thirst to devour.

To take over.

To be greedy, to desire everything you couldn't have.

And to long for something you once did.

It's an awful thing to succumb to. But it's worse when the monarchy is the one to fall to it.

What are you supposed to do when the rulers of your people have fallen to such a terrible illness?

When your family has fallen?

What do you do when one thrives in the sickness they were given?

What can you do? Who can you trust and who can you not?

And who will stay by your side till your very last breath?

I know one person. But that's not for this description to tell, this book though, is eager to speak.
