The late king, James's father, has passed away making James the youngest king in centuries. Much like his ancestors before him, he was blessed with a magical gift that is given to those who are worthy to lead and protect the people. Unlike his forefathers, his gift was far more than anyone bargained for. The power over darkness and shadow. As his power began manifesting, an accident with fatalities made rumors spread like wildfire. The crown prince was a monster... a monster about to become king. For the first time in James's life, he needs to prove to his people he is not the villain.
As the coronation ball grows near, these two very different people from very separate worlds come together. As unlikely as their pairing may be, their love blossoms and becomes a beacon of light. As their fates collide and lives change, Renee and James learn to face their greatest fears together as one. Join them in their journey as his darkness willingly steps into her light and her light steps blindly into his darkness.

Witchbound 1
In a small, seemingly ordinary town, Selene has always felt like she's just another face in the crowd. Her life revolves around the typical high school experiences-hanging out with friends, navigating the ups and downs of teenage life, and managing the constant buzz of schoolwork and daily routines. To the outside world, it's a life like any other, filled with the usual moments of frustration and joy. Yet, beneath the surface of this mundane existence lies a hidden world, one that Selene never could have imagined. Magic, mystical creatures, and ancient forces have quietly coexisted with her reality, just out of sight. It's a world governed by secrets, where the extraordinary is concealed by the normal. When Selene's life unexpectedly takes a turn, she is drawn to Eldermyst Academy, an ancient, secluded institution that holds the key to her true potential. The academy is a place far removed from her small-town life, a place where the supernatural is a part of everyday existence. Here, Selene begins to uncover her own latent powers, powers that have been dormant for years. The stark contrast between her once predictable world and the strange, mystical realm she enters becomes the foundation for her transformation. As she explores secret locations, encounters creatures beyond imagination, and navigates the complexities of magical realms, Selene begins to realize that her journey isn't just about surviving the chaos of two worlds colliding-it's about mastering the forces within herself, understanding the legacy that runs through her veins, and coming to terms with the power she holds. Each challenge she faces, each discovery she makes, takes her further away from the life she knew, and closer to a destiny that was always waiting for her.Complete
