** When their beloved mistress is murdered, a white raven and a black fox embark on a journey for revenge. Will the brave familiars manage to recover the stolen heart in time - or would they lose themselves? **

"Sometimes love is 
what drives you to take your next breath. 
Other times, it's revenge."
- ONC24EN Prompt #27 - 

When the guardian of a fairy grove is cruelly murdered for the source of her power, her two familiars and faithful protectors are left broken and lost. 
But soon, their despair changes, and from  this moment on, they are driven by one desire alone: Revenge. 
They embark on a death-defying journey with the little strength they have left to reclaim the stolen heart. Will the black fox Cian and the white Raven Lir manage together to steal back the soul of their beloved mistress before their magic is used up and their lives are forfeit? 
Or will they turn back into what they once were and lose themselves forever?
Time is running out, because the two nature spirits don't have much fairy magic left, as the cruel thief has his own sinister plans...

Avoid looking into those golden eyes. One look is enough and you will be lost forever. Once upon a time, beyond the forests and mountains, where the leaves always wore the color of autumn, a girl with great talent grew up, with her mother and father. One day, however, their happiness was stolen by tragedy. Her mother fell ill and death called her to the other side. Nothing was the same anymore. Her father remarried. And in the end, time took him away too. Iris was left alone with her stepmother and stepsister. They made her a maid, a slave. A prisoner of a life she hated. But something deep inside her prevented her from leaving the house she grew up in - her home. There, as a child, she created all the miracles with her mother and wanted to continue doing so, to give joy to those less fortunate. Like when she made a dress for the butcher's wife, whom her husband no longer loved, that made her irresistible to him again. Or when she made a shirt for her best friend Jace that was supposed to protect him from the edge of swords, since he liked to provoke the royal guards. Her little secret. But one day, her peaceful life decides to take a completely different direction and everything goes wrong. She meets a prince. She helps her stepsister win him for herself. And ancient family secrets get involved when a demon she is magically bonded with appears. A long-hidden story begins to unfold before her, revealing the truth about her mother, her ancient ancestors, and herself. And it all started with her simply taking off the necklace she should never have taken off.

"From today onwards, you'll be our captive. Our acquisition. Your life will be resigned to this chamber, to serving us. You'll answer to our every beck and call, and should you try to be defiant, we wouldn't hesitate to strip you bare and whip the devil out of you before locking you up in the dungeons without food and water. Are. We. Clear?" He ground out, punctuating the words with feral anger. Tears burned Elaine's eyes, her body shaking like a leaf in the wind, filled with trepidation. She choked on her own sob, but she had to answer. "Yes... Masters." She forced out, pitifully breaking into a sob. Their lips twitched then. "Welcome to your new life, Elaine. We hope you enjoy it." ******* Princess Elaine Renee Valys has always lived a sheltered life, hidden away in a tower on the outskirts of her father's kingdom. But she's had enough of it, secretly wishing for the day her father would call her home and she would be allowed to explore the world. It finally happens, but not in the way she expects. She falls right into the claws of the Brother Kings, who have completely different plans for her. King Ryker and King Marlon are the Brother Kings who are out for revenge and carnage. Once slaves to the despicable King Thraine, they have returned to destroy the very thing he holds dear - his kingdom. They stumble upon Elaine, hidden and the lone survivor of the massacre that has befallen King Thraine's family, and take her as a trophy, a reminder of their victory. Elaine is to be their captive, the subject of their cruel jokes and sinister actions until they have had enough. Except, things don't go the way any of them planned, and fate is about to throw a wicked curveball at them. Will Elaine be able to escape their darkness, or will she become a pawn in their deadly game? 1 in mfm on 31/7/2025 1 in spicyslowburn on 1/8/2025 2 in dreamlandbooks on 2/8/2025
