[Arabian Nights meets Atlantis]
She wants to save her family.
He wants to save his people.
After selling all of her belongings to survive, Alara has nothing-except a burn scar left by her unknown father and a sick mother she has to take care of. In order to survive, Alara steals and trades what she can. The only escape she has is when she closes her eyes and imagines a different life for herself.
Zayen has been raised to be a guard to the royal family, and has to protect his identity or be killed. Some would say that all of his worth is in his surname. He would say that his worth only comes from the good he can do for those who need it. But that's easier said then done in a world where the pure of heart get left behind.
When Alara and Zayen are forced to work together, they uncover a world that tried to stay hidden. Everything becomes possible, and none of it is safe.

And this was what she got-marrying a ruthless, cold prince who'd slapped her and insulted her?! Would she have even a glimmer of hope in this arranged marriage? ⚠️⚠️THE FULL STORY IS AVAILABLE ON READINK, WEBNOVEL AND ANYSTORIES⚠️⚠️ PS: I'm a romance ghostwriter.
