CURSED

In a world where power is everything, Elara Sinclair has always fought for those without it. A fierce resistance fighter, she and her best friend Rowan have spent the last five years risking their lives to push back against the injustices of the powerful. But when Rowan is sent on a dangerous solo mission to infiltrate Valoria's royal ball, everything changes. The day after the ball, Elara receives a letter-a message that Rowan won't be returning. Armed with little more than her sharp tongue and sharper blade, she sets out for Valoria to bring him back, no matter the cost.

In the glittering heart of Valoria, Prince Adrian is seen as the kingdom's savior, destined to break a curse that has plagued the land. As the last child to be born, he bears the weight of prophecy and expectation. But Adrian harbors a secret-he has no powers. Sheltered and fiercely protected by his father, he seeks escape in the shadows of Valoria's nights, trading royal obligations for fleeting freedom. Yet, the ball that was meant to strengthen the kingdom's future brings cracks to its foundations.

Elara's pursuit of Rowan and Adrian's search for his own purpose seem like separate paths-until their worlds collide in an unexpected moment of reckoning.

The Cursed and The Chosen is a tale of defiance, destiny, and the fragile threads that bind us. In a kingdom on the brink, how far would you go to fight for those you love-and for the freedom to choose your own path?
