The Third Princess, the Omen of Death. That was the title that had been bestowed on Cesia ever since her body first touched soft linen. The warmth of her mother's arms was nothing but a dream as her life turned into a nightmare. Her brethren, the third princesses, ceased to experience life beyond their young years and she was expected to have the same fate.

Until she didn't.

Her carriage was prepared with great care for the first time, her dress made with great detail for elegancy and beauty, her body adorned with jewels that were treated like their value weighed more than her right to live. She was on her way to the Grand Duke Marseille. 

Unaware of the future riddled by the past, will she be able to cut the ties linking the threads of her life and the third princesses before her?

The Flower Longed Death by jezxzica

She longed death to her sorrow Death to all of her woes She longed death of her present To return to once known She longed death of her secrets For they feast upon her She longed death to her virtue It was help no longer She longed to forget this death That echo pains her much But death reaps all he calls for And she he longs to touch ------------------------------------------------------------------- Princess Serena felt she was doomed to live a dreary, protected life in the palace that she was prepared to end. Even once she inherits the title of Queen, the kingdom of Eden would never cease to protect its flower. Her fear of living a dull life ate at her until her tempting first love, Caius, renters it. He vows to free her of her sorrows with a promise of magic, adventure, and passion. She thought he would bring her the excitement she had been looking for, but joining her deadly infatuation would wilt Eden's flower to the brink of agony. ------------------------------------------------------------------- When he turned his ear to me, I noticed that I could see the right side of his mouth. I've been looking at it since I cannot hold eye contact. When he smirked just now, I felt myself tremble. "There's a corpse of my creation at my feet Serena. What makes you think I'm devout to religion?" That explains his willingness to sin. "You're a virtuous woman for keeping to your vows, but I am by no means a virtuous man." His intent to court me is not pure. It's certainly from his heart, but his cause is not only for my love. There's something that he must prove to me now... Whether his will is enough to turn me against my virtues. With each passing day I'm growing more weary that it might be. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Word Count: 147,000 This is the first book of a series (it might end with the second who knows).

When her love, life, and power are tested, Mahaila decides she will stop at nothing to take what belongs to hers.
