In the heart of an ordinary world lies Selene Dalton, a young woman on the cusp of adulthood, whose life is a delicate dance between the realms of the known and the unseen.

Blessed or burdened with gifts beyond comprehension, Selene finds herself swept into a whirlwind of uncertainty and peril. Visions, like fragments of a forgotten spell, haunt her dreams, and inexplicable events unfold around her, shrouding her existence in an aura of mystique and magic.

As Selene grapples with the weight of her extraordinary abilities and the allure of the hidden truths that beckon her, she stands at the threshold of a world where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur into oblivion.

Driven by an unyielding thirst for understanding, Selene embarks on a quest to untangle the threads of her destiny. Yet, with each revelation, she is drawn deeper into a labyrinth of secrets and dangers, where the forces of light and darkness clash in a timeless battle for supremacy.

It's left to her to choose, the darkness or the light.

The King's Assassin

17 parts Complete

** Complete - EDITING** In a kingdom where magic is forbidden, Selene serves as the King's Assassin, bound to his every command. Though, she has no memory of who she truly is -- only the name the King has told her. In the crowded, suffocating city, she struggles to think clearly, to remember something. But remembering is dangerous; it could make the King angry. And angering the King something she dares not risk. Yet, when Selene begins dreaming of a mysterious man with amber eyes, fragments of her memories begin to return. As her past slowly pieces itself together, she faces the question -- will learning the truth of who she is give her the strength to claim her freedom, or will it spell doom for herself and the kingdom she has come to call home?
