୨﹒ ˖˚ BLOOD/LUST RESOLUTE ˚˖﹒ ୧
Blood, lust, and bloodlust; the resolute for the throne, to take back what is rightfully his.
Astraea Maniae lived a sheltered life as "Count Maniae's Marionette," though being the favourite doesn't quite mean being treated kindly. Having her entire life manipulated by the strings of a marionettist, both her father and her fate, from her fragile birth to her encounter with the crown prince---Astraea, the vessel of god, an angel of a saviour and the devil of a murderer, lived for nothing more than revenge, power, and most of all, the lust for blood.
And of the Eremos Empire, praising the traitoring disciple: do you dare to defy the oracle of god's will?

My dagger poised over his heart I scornfully asked the king,❝Any last words, your highness?❞
❝It was never me.❞ I plunged my weapon downwards, sending blood spurting. The crimson substance was spilling from his mouth like red wine. I twisted my dagger and then pulled it out of his chest. The marble floors were now stained with his blood and I gazed as it seeped through his white shirt.
❝Your reign is over. ❞

Andromeda Holloway is pulled into a realm of lies and memories when she finds out she's one of them. Flesh and bone in this world but one never meant to be in it until the day he returns to take her back, 4 years after she arrived.
Memories of another world, a world that is nothing more but ink on a page, resurface and so does the memory of this man, the one who she was set to marry 4 years ago. But what if it's all a lie? What if her faith is tied to something different, one of the few memories that didn't seem to return, perhaps?
Bloody powerplays and trickery are woven into this fairytale grandeur but what if there's someone out there, silently protecting her for fear of losing his life like he once almost did.
The only problem is... it's not the one who came for her...
