Adenolaine Arevalo was contented with her life in the city. Far away from the mansion that contains every hurtful memory of her young self. But as peaceful as it might be, she can never escape from where she came from. Going home for her 18th and her cousin's 8th birthday was her grandmother's adamant decision. It has always been in their family's tradition to celebrate these ages in the mansion, and she never understood why.
Strange things began to happen when she stepped foot on the soil of La Rena. Unexplained lights in the distance, bizarre dreams, and visions of places she had never seen before. Everything was not making any sense. Until one night, when she heard her mother and grandmother talking about her little cousin being taken away by someone -- or something -- that even they were not sure of. That it was decided. And they're not going to do anything to stop it.
Fueled by her promise to her uncle and grandfather to protect her cousin, they took off into the one place that she was warned never to enter.
Running away from the danger that she thought was the worst. She realized that she pushed their selves into a nightmare.
A nightmare that will haunt the both of them for the rest of their lives.

The Queen's Slave (Book 1)

Disregarding the pain in my side from the most recent beating, I straightened my shoulders and stood tall, my chin jutting out in defiance. "Yes." "Mm." Those intriguing eyes watched me from her languid position on the throne. "But, you are not just a huntress, are you?" I allowed the predatory instincts I usually worked so hard to keep hidden, to surface, feeling the burning of my eyes and shifting of bones under my skin. A slow grin slid across my face as my beast stared back at her through my human skin. The Queen didn't react to my sudden change of character, instead choosing to lean forward in interest. "How fascinating." • Once, the world was ruled by humans and technology. They were governed by a president that made choices for all.
