Ezlyn was a lethal human weapon. Ever since she knew the world, she saw it as a place where you survive on the blood of others. Or else the said others will claw your flesh before you.
Immune to human emotions. She was taught to kill and she was awfully efficient at her assigned job. Never hesitant to slit a throat or two or many...if required.
When she was ordered to kill the evil, cunning, undefeated, skilled in every weapon and dangerously handsome crown prince of Yezekael, the most powerful sovereign in the Great South, she had no other option but to succeed in order to survive.
But what dark secrets does the kingdom in the South hold captive, waiting for her to arrive and start what was supposed to stay as a dark past? It shouldn't have lulled Ezlyn; she was there to kill, not to search for answers to unasked questions about her own existence...

The Kingdom of Elvendor: Curse of the Forgotten
In a world where Elves and Vikings are bound in eternal conflict, two powerful kingdoms stand on the brink of war. But for Elowen, an orphan raised in the shadows of Elvendor's shining towers, the stakes are personal. Abandoned as a baby, she's learned to survive in a city that values power above all else, a city where she's nothing more than an invisible pawn in a game of magic and politics. On her eighteenth birthday, the Luminara ritual will determine her place in this world, either among the elite or cast back into the darkness. But Elowen is no ordinary elf. As the ritual unfolds, an ancient power stirs within her, a force older than the kingdom itself, pulling her into a dangerous web of secrets and lies. Caught between two worlds-one ruled by the privileged elves, the other by the fierce Vikings-Elowen finds herself torn between duty, love, and the dangerous unknown. Eirik, the Viking chieftain's son, should be her enemy. Yet his storm-gray eyes see through the label of "threat" that's been placed on her. But loving him would be treason. Denying him? A betrayal of her own heart. As tensions rise between the two kingdoms, a dark power awakens, threatening to consume them all. Elowen must navigate treacherous alliances, face an ancient enemy, and decide where her loyalties truly lie. But one thing is certain-she was born to shatter the boundaries of both worlds. In the end, no one, not the elves, not the Vikings, will be prepared for the storm she's about to unleash. ********* A new chapter is published every two days, so stay tuned for fresh twists and thrilling moments as Elowen's journey unfolds!

Crown of Greed and Power
