curse emotional fantasy-romance king love magic powers rich romance sad

In the mystical land of Eldoria, where magic flowed through the veins of its inhabitants and mythical creatures roamed freely, 
there existed a curse that plagued the royal family for generations. The curse was simple yet devastating - the ruler of Eldoria would only reign until the age of 30 before their body would be consumed by it, leaving nothing but ashes behind. 
 
The current ruler of Eldoria, King Kallias, had just turned 29 and the people of the kingdom were beginning to fear the worst. Kallias was a kind and just king, loved by his subjects, but the curse loomed over him like a dark shadow, threatening to take him away before his time. 
 
But there was a glimmer of hope in the dark depths of despair. Once a decade, a female from the kingdom was chosen to be given a chance to break the curse that plagued the royal family. If she succeeded, the curse would be lifted and the ruler would be free from its grasp. However, if she failed, the curse would consume her as well, leaving two souls lost to the darkness. 
 
The time had come for a new female to be chosen to break the curse, and the anticipation in the kingdom was palpable. Every eligible woman in Eldoria hoped to be the one chosen, to be the savior of their beloved king and their kingdom.All Rights Reserved

As their deadly game of power escalates, she must decide: Will she destroy the king to save herself, or surrender to the darkness that binds them both? The throne demands blood. The curse demands sacrifice. And her heart may demand something far worse.

Fatal Bonds by ayiannabarnes

Hopelessly, a young boy wanders through the desolate streets of Eldorium's slums, belonging to nowhere but the dust. He has no recollection of anything - only that he finds himself drawing closer to the preeminent palace each day. Eldorium is a kingdom of conquered riches, clashing steel and an irrefutable rank of who is ontop and who is below the pyramid. The sand has seen an overflowing amount of bloodshed over all the years this formidable empire has stood. It all means nothing to him, until he stumbles upon a boy cornered into an alley of the gilded markets. One thing he discovers about himself is his ability to fight, which lands him on his knees before the throne, where the boy he aided turns out to be the prince. The prince pleads for mercy upon his new friend, for a commoner mingling with a royalty is forbidden, especially a commoner with no records of existence - ever. The king grants him training to become the prince's personal assassin; a deadly shadow for a powerful sun. They face the world together. Everyday is spent sweating blood or drawing it from the battles they dive into sword-first, falling even the most impenetrable kingdoms side by side. However, not even the desert can bury the dark secrets of Eldorium, nor can it whisper warnings of the daunting times to come. And the Gods... well, they see everything. And their rage grows, with Eldorium at the center of it.

Veiled in Light and Ruin by jemicahcolleen

Every year, Lyra's village gathers beneath the ancient statues of the Fates, offering prayers and sacrifices to keep the creeping darkness at bay. The Ruined Kingdom stands in the distance, a forbidden place where no one enters and no one leaves. A place ruled by a king who does not age, does not die, and does not care for the world beyond his walls. Lyra has never believed in fate, only in survival. With her mother's health failing, she is willing to do whatever it takes to save what little she has left. But when this year's ritual goes terribly wrong, Lyra is taken-ripped from the life she knows and thrust into the heart of a kingdom lost to time. There, she is told she has been chosen. That she, along with others, must vie for the favor of a king no one has seen in over a century. But something is wrong within the castle's walls. Whispers of the past haunt her steps, and the King-cold, untouchable, and shrouded in secrets-watches her too closely. As shadows stir and forgotten magic awakens, Lyra begins to question everything she's been told about the Ruined Kingdom. And, more importantly, about herself. Because the deeper she delves into the mystery of the King and the kingdom he rules behind the walls, the more she realizes: Some destinies are written in blood. And some fates are meant to be broken.

Kiss by _Cas_tiel_

"It's a fairy tale curse Casey," he told me. "A fairy tale curse. A fairy tale cure." "I still don't understand," I whined like a child. He gave me that beautiful half smile of his. "It's very simple," he teased. The sun was fading... "Just spit it out then," I shot back. It was almost gone... so close to gone... he leaned close, so close I could feel his breath on my ear... It tickled a bit. "Just one kiss to break the spell." ************** Casey Williams has always sort of believed in magic, but not for the childish reasons most people do. At 13 her brother and father were murdered by someone she was half sure she imagined... a monster. The whites of his eyes were black and the pupils snow white.

And she NEVER intended on falling in love with him. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Book 1
