She was dying, but she still stopped to stare at the circus tent.

It had appeared in the field, seemingly out of nowhere, red and yellow stripes twisting up into three flagged spires.  And Lana would soon realize that once she entered the circus, there would be no easy escape.

The wizards believe that the Wizard's Misery is no more and Aryganazhan has married Maledictor and now the wizards are at war. Strange doorways have begun opening through out the Midlands and bizarre creatures are emerging forever changing the kingdom. Can Celine close the doorways and stop the creatures from entering? Can she neutralize the wizards before any more damage is done? Travel through out the kingdom with Celine and her allies as they try to stop the war while a new enemy arises, threatening to enslave all of humanity that dwells within the Midlands. Sneak peak: Suddenly a very small, strange creature that looked like a miniature woman with wings darted in front of Celine's face, then flew over to Brandon and followed along beside him for a moment before speeding back into the Royal Pine Forest as he reined in his horse. "What in the Midlands was that?" Brandon asked in shock. "I don't know," Celine answered concerned. "Something very strange is going on. I feel like I need to go into the woods! There's something I need to do in the woods!" she said as she rode over to the side of the road and dismounted, running into the Royal Pine Forest as Brandon called after her to wait. He quickly dismounted and swiftly lead his horse over to Celine's, taking its reins and tying both horses to a tree before going after her. "Celine! Wait!" he called after her as he realized that he could hear a very low humming noise coming from within the woods. "Maybe she's following the noise," he thought as he began to follow it to find where it was coming from and hopefully locate Celine. He pushed through the underbrush as the sound became louder and then he saw Celine standing in front of a whirling, shimmering vortex which was floating about four feet above the forest floor. There was a myriad of different types of strange looking creatures coming out of it and Brandon stood there in disbelief at what he was seeing.

Wren's life is about to change forever - but not how she expects it to. Kidnapped on her wedding day, she finds herself trapped in a mountain cave, unable to return home with no company outside of the inhuman creature that took her. *** "Wait, Wren! Not that way!" It was darker here and panic limited her vision, but she could see it reaching for her; its wings like two huge looming shadows behind it. "Get away! Don't touch me! No, let me go!" She shrieked. She screamed in earnest as a hand took hold of her arm, and then even more when her own hand reached for something to hang onto and grasped at empty air. She had been scrambling towards a sudden drop! The hands hauled her back, but she still struggled. She didn't want to look at it, and she still wasn't sure she wouldn't rather take her chances with the open air instead. "Stop it, I'm not going to hurt you! You'll hit your head on the rock or something. Wren, please!" It knew her name. Somehow it knew her. She was going to die! "Let me go! Stop touching me!" She was sitting on the rocky floor now with her back against an uneven wall, and it was trying to pin her down and hold her still. She kept her eyes turned away and struggled helplessly, but it was no use. It was strong like a human man too, and she couldn't keep it off of her. The wings had moved until they curved around them both and shut out a lot of the light. Its face was so near hers that she could feel its breath brushing against her skin. "Please just look at me for a second. Just look. I'm not going to hurt you." One of the hands grabbed her chin and forced her head to turn, and then she was looking straight into a pair of dark brown eyes. It had a human face too. She had been expecting something monstrous or ghastly, and the surprise made her falter for a moment. He looked young, with a bad haircut and an earnest expression on his face. "I'll let go of you, okay? Just don't lunge around like that anymore, you'll get hurt." He whispered.

𝐒𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐍𝐀 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐄, a cursed marionette, a useless puppet under the control of the director. Seven years ago the magic of circus carnival entangled her into selling her soul and now she's trapped into a laberinth of misery without any escape. Her only wish- freedom, her destiny- eternal captivity. Until he arrives. 𝐓𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐎𝐑 𝐌𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐍, a twisted soul, a unscrupulous man, with intensions straight out of hell. Just as Selena he fell for the same deception. His only desire- power, his determination- a shattered past. Until she arrives. But the devilish game the circus arranges every year, changes everything. This is a chance for Selenas freedom just as Trevors igniting for revenge. A soul with the price of another. The game is simple yet deadly. Only one can win. But nothing is like it seems. Both are players in a contest that's impossible to prevail. In which their only fate is loss. It's a dance in which illusion and reality, truth and lies, life and death just as love and hate intertwine, banishing Selena and Trevor deeper and deeper into the dangerous secrets of the haunted circus world. ____________ "Welcome ladies and gentlemen, welcome, get your tickets here and enter a magical world full of mystery and games. Let the night with all of its eases begin, till it's sold out to the stars" "If this attraction is so entchanting as they say, can I get a ticket to your heart as well, beautiful?", a deep voice from behind sneaked all the way up into my ear, till attaching into my lost soul, leaving me back with goosebumbs. I turned around and all that I could recognize, was hypnotising me with green. Green like the forest, floated with pumpkin lamps on a rainy autumn day. As all the magic appeared from his eyes and drowned the whole circus in millions of miracles. 𝐕𝐎𝐋𝐔𝐌𝐄 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐈𝐕𝐀𝐋 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐈
