Friends since childhood, Aliénor and prince Baudouin spend their summers in Jerusalem together, sneaking around the palace and causing havoc among the household.

Until one day the prince is no longer allowed out of his chambers.

Confused and distraught, Aliénor is only permitted to write letters to him for fear of his illness spreading.

𝘏𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘎𝘰𝘥. The servants whisper, but Aliénor refuses to believe it.

A war lurks on the horizon. Montgisard hums with the murmur of soldiers as they line for battle. The young King and his stallion stand bravely at the head; a sash of crimson is bound on his left arm, a favour from the woman he writes to in secret. 


Meanwhile, Aliénor of Acre joins the Order of Lazarus as a medic and follows them to the battlefield. Armed with nothing but faith, and the wistful memory of another time,  she is determined to capture the heart of the king she once knew as Baudouin. 

But something horrific lingers in the air. A sickness unknown to man, one so terrible not even the dead can escape. And when corpses begin to rise, and the battlefield becomes one of the living against the dead, all notion of order is lost.

As a lily among brambles,
    so is my love among the young women.

⚠THIS STORY CONTAINS THEMES THAT MIGHT BE TOO INTENSE FOR SOME READERS. ⚠ She pounded on her brother's door, screaming. No answer. Her tears intensified to the point that she could barely see. Her lungs were quickly filling with smoke. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kailani Flair wasn't exactly sympathetic towards people. Certain experiences had made her that way. After the supposed death of her entire family when she was five, Kailani had made a promise to herself. A promise to find them, or, if they were really dead, the person responsible and make them pay. And she didn't really care who got in her way. However, two young girls might be just what Kailani needs to soften her heart of stone. Nevan Ransom had buried his troubling past when he moved into a small town on the outskirts of Mispa. But nothing buried, dead or alive, stays buried long. His past has caught up to him. In an effort to find a better life for him and his adoptive little brother, Shea, he decides to find the assassin that's wanted all over the Southern Kingdoms and collect the bounty for them. 𝘔𝘪𝘥𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘚𝘯𝘰𝘸. His mission is sidetracked when Shea is taken, and he's left with an eerie note with a scarily familiar signature. Nazifa didn't know who her parents were, she honestly didn't care to. They were probably like all the other parents in the Southern Kingdoms. Selfish, egotistical, and money crazed. At least that's how Kai had described his parents, and he was her best friend, so she trusted him. But that trust wasn't gained overnight. She'd learned the hard way what easy trust led to. Which is one of the reasons why she's on high alert around their new friend, Killian. However, when Kai goes missing while on a hunting expedition, she has no choice but to trust Killian. As he knows the woods better than anyone in Paradise. He's the only one who can help her
