Curse & Kingdom

44 parts Ongoing

They invited me to their masquerade. Three cursed brothers- One a warrior. One an assassin. One a prince. I'm just an ordinary, nerdy, twenty-three-year-old girl. (I mean, my hobbies include writing fanfiction and caring for my collection of succulents.) I don't know anything about magic. And I have no idea why these brothers want me. But as they draw me into their enchanted world, they tell me I'm the only one who can save them from their curse. I only hope my heart is prepared for what's to come.
