"We are the divine violence."
In the fantasy kingdom of Eldom terror has struck. The royal family has been the target of a series of attempted and successful assassinations. Crown Prince Amir has been killed in cold blood by the group known as ECL, Eldom's Common Liberators. Now, the children of the crown have come back to fight for their lives. Royal Warriors. 5 of them, all shaken from the death of their elder brother. For the ECL assassins, the death of the Crown Prince was a celebrated success. Now, they must take on the Royal Warriors to finally free their kingdom from the hands of the Erickson Family, the current royal family.
The Powers. Otherwise known as the highborns are the people born with special abilities. The Powers are staples of the upper class, born into luxury and prestige. If a Power was born among the lesserborns, they'd be taken, and promptly raised and trained by the upper class, never to return to their old lives or families. The Crown believe they can find all of the Lesser Powers, but some slip right through their fingers.
Main Characters
"Haven't you taken enough from me?"
Aliyah Erickson, the new heir to the throne of Eldom, is an 18-year-old prodigy. She has the smarts of a scholar and the strength of a knight. Aliyah was the closest to her elder brother, and the one most devastated from his loss. She always thought she would be her brother's guard, his knight, his protector. Now, Aliyah has to practically become her brother, and deal with assassination attempts on her and her family.
"Prepare to burn down with me."
Dominique Blair, the head of the ECL, is a 19-year-old on the path of revenge and liberty. She always gets what she wants and she is quite the prosperous manipulator. Dominique is a protective, but deadly, person and holds those she cares about close to her. If anyone even thought about hurting someone she cares about they'd be dead in minutes.
[COMPLETED]
As I was beginning to relax, a new terror coursed through my body at his next word, "Strip."
"Ex-excuse me?" I blurted out. I wasn't getting undressed in front of him, I barely knew him. He must have been trying to gain something from me and I doubted my fear and embarrassment was what he wanted.
Adrenous didn't say anything as he drew his hands up my back and halted at the laces of my dress. I felt him tug at one of the nots and I instantly pulled away and turned to face him, no longer caring that his manhood was out for all to see. Just like that part of him, he too was a dick. "I'm not getting undressed in front of you!" I yelled at him.
"Your mine, Alivia," My name passed his lips easily and hearing him say it did things to me which I didn't want to admit. Instead I glared at him, he said I was his as if I was some kind of possession that he could do with as he pleased. He added, "Let me take care of you."
I didn't know what he meant by that, all I knew was that I had no intention of doing as he had asked.
