In the land of Araelia, two powerful kingdoms were forced into a terrifyingly unstable treaty after a gruesome war that ended in the death of Queen Irena Drakarr of Drakestone, who was killed by the brutal and bloodthirsty King Alaric Zenhir of Zenithrae - after Drakestone had already declared its surrender. With Irena gone, the citizens of Drakestone no longer possessed the magic she kindly bestowed upon them. Irena's husband, King Draktus, retaliates by using the rest of his magic to curse the Kingdom of Zenithrae, making it impossible for their magic to be used to harm or kill anyone ever again. As a token of peace, the Kingdom of Zenithrae now funnels a portion of its magic to Drakestone to be given to its inhabitants. Unfortunately, this is not enough for Grimmur, the son of the murdered queen. So Grimmur eventually has one child of his own. A son: Prince Cinte Drakarr of Drakestone. At the age of 6, Cinte begins a long road of agonizing training, his physical and mental abilities being pushed beyond comprehension. His ability to feel any sort of emotion is snuffed out like a candle by his father's relentless demands. For 15 years, he was trained for one purpose: To avenge his grandmother, Irena. To get revenge for his father, Grimmur. To kill the granddaughter of King Alaric Zenhir. But is any man truly strong enough to kill an innocent girl? Will Cinte be able to follow through with his father's plan, or is his purpose much more complex than just fulfilling the role of his father's personal assassin?

Ember Ryvergrave is tired and alone. Her mother is dead, her twin sister doesn't need her, and her best friend is in love with another. She feels as though she has no purpose anymore. She's a trained assassin. A killer. Surely she shouldn't be feeling so dejected from the people around her, yet those feelings linger deep inside her stomach. Along with the secret magic that resides in Ember's bones. The magic that would cost her her life if anyone knew about it. She's prepared to live a life of solitude and coldness until a strange boy with mint eyes and golden hair sees her and her magic. Ember's world flips upside down. He comes with news. Ember's fellow assassin has been taken. She has been tasked with retrieving the assassin and bringing them home. However, Ember has to cross through her country and go into the capital. Where the King resides. The man who wishes her dead. Though, she doesn't journey alone. The mint-eyed boy insists on coming. Now she must watch out for him . . . and herself. Trouble stirs and old demons come back to haunt Ember. Especially two men who are on the hunt for her. Ember's past is coming back to life and it's worse than anything she has ever imagined.
