Deeply intense, and painful emotions viciously tore into the constant thoughts of Cynthia's mind. She soon learned at seven years old what it was like to not only lose her grandfather, but her best friend. However; her sadness was soon forgotten as she began playing a paranormal game of chess. Cynthia's grandfather taught her how to play over the last year, playing throughout many cherished evenings. But as the game progresses she finds that not all games are necessarily fun, and Cynthia quickly learns many times our actions have consequences. Even if unfounded, she finds that as she eagerly plays a game of chess in a dark, dusty attic, that many of our action's consequences prove quite dire. Her eagerness dissipates into a mist of fear, compounding into unforeseen scenarios. And like being slowly pushed over a cliff against her will, with only jagged rocks below to comfort her fall, Cynthia's attempts to resist appear futile.

Imagine this. You close your eyes for merely a second and when you open them, it's the year 2040. Everything is different. The very world as you know it today is contrary to your current reality. There's are no regular chocolate bars like sneakers or mars, there's no such thing as iPhone or Tesla, attending government school is absolutely compulsory in some parts of the world, there's no freedom to move around or travel through different countries or even different states within your own country. There are two major alliances of countries; The Union and the Confederates which are in a constant struggle for power after a war in 2035 that divided the world. In the midst of all of this, life seems to be going perfectly well for seventeen year old Saylor Cohen in the new world she has found herself in. She lives somewhat of a double life. Her father is a spy majorly known for his role as a government official and they live a life of luxury and wealth. She seems to be adjusting to the new rules imposed by the government including attending compulsory government school while trying to live under intense secrecy to protect her father's secrets. Her struggles to attain any form of normalcy in her life soon ebbs away when her life is turned upside down as she is expected to entertain a guest she despises. She finds herself in relationships she knows her father would never approve of and worst of all, she starts receiving mysterious letters from an unknown source. She follows the promptings and instructions of these strange letters as they promise to lead her to some important information about a ground breaking truth that's been hidden from her. The only problem is, the letters she guards and hopes will answer all her burning questions ends up being the very thing that endangers her the most.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.
