Weapons. Battles. Horses. Saddles. Men. Iola has spent her entire life in the center of war - The Warrior's City, Jalaide, near the coastline. Now, when she is 17 and more skilled than many young men among the soldiers, she longs for the honor of participating in the troops herself, despite what everyone seem to think about young female fighters. It's in her blood, and it is the only thing that keeps her happy... Then one day, a rider comes into town during odd circomstances. He is the messenger of the Secret Order in the Forgotten Kingdom, and after bringing his message forth, a squadron of Secret Munks wanders in the city, bringing their most precious treasure to be kept safe inside the special walls of Jalaide. This treasure is not only sacret, it is also said to be the source of goodness in the world, and when it's stolen, the munks declares war towards the Fourth Kingdom. A search group, a trusted few (including Iola) is sent out to retrieve the treasure before the munks attack - a mission that is not only dangerous but also a struggle against time if they want to save their lands and dear ones before it is too late. All of a sudden, being a soldier seems to take more than Iola expected, and very soon, she finds herself in a dangerous position. She has to choose between duty and instinct, peace or war, death or destruction and most importantly - love or jelaousy. The whole mission and survival of her homelands are in her hands, and when threads unwraddle there is an entire spiderweb of conspiracy, bloodthirst and betrayal. Who can she trust, and is the treasure really worth saving?

"WHY CAN'T YOU GET IT INSIDE YOUR HEAD?" He trapped my trembling body between his arms and slammed his fist into the wall. I flinch at the sound as I feel tears forming in my eyes. "I'M SICK AND TIRED OF YOUR CRYING. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT YOU'RE NEVER LEAVING. THIS IS YOUR LIFE NOW, WITH ME" He spits, anger consuming his voice as I push myself further against the wall. Shutting my eyes closed and turning my face to the side as I do. Moments later, I feel his rough hand on my waist and his finger grazing my cheek. "Look at me, love." His hand grips onto my jaw, his thumb playing across my lower lip. He turns my face to meet his as I lower my gaze to the floor. He lowers himself to my level and I feel his breath fanning my cheek causing my breathing to become unsteady. "I love you so much, darling. But you need to learn. You need to learn that you won't be going anywhere. You're mine." With that being said, his other hand slides down to my waist "Your entire body, your mind, your soul. All mine." All I could do was tremble at his touch. How can someone so beautiful be so heartless? ~~~~~~~~~~ All a 19 year old Aurora Shaw wanted to do was work to make a living and volunteer at the orphanage.
