The Baron is a snake, and everyone knows that-well, King Kendrick should certainly have it more present, but he still knows.

He doesn't scare Ruby. It's something else that is troubling her.

Ruby is a dragon, and everyone knows too. It terrifies her that they might just bear the same greed, the only difference being that he seeks a greater robbery.

Fortunately for her, Leonora is at that banquet too.

As more and more clues emerge from the shadows, as more people become apart of this mess, Valeria makes it her mission to get to the bottom of all the lies she's grew up with. Secrets. Deception. Illusions. Would Valeria be able to push past the truth that her family was feeding her or will she herself take down anyone who gets in her way? -------------------------- This is book 1 in the SERPENTS' series.This book contains extreme themes that may not be suitable for specific audiences, I've warned you.

"Y-you came ba-ck. W-what's tod-ay's torture go-ing to be?" he let out a weak chuckle, which only made him seem more deranged. He shifted his wrists against the ropes, tearing his skin and scabs off, releasing fresh blood, then said, " L-let me gues-s. H-it me, no, y-ou alrea-dy did that. S-stab m-me, no you did th-at to-o. May-be whip m-e, no, bec-ause you fuc-king did th-at too!" His voice was rough and broken from screaming. Blake looked down at him with an angry expression spreading across his face. This only made Albert, in his state of mental unstableness, push him further toward the brink of exploding in anger. "Come on," Albert started, then continued screaming, " What are you go-ing to do now?!" "First I'm going to have to get you to shut the fuck up!" Blake yelled, grabbing a fist full of Albert's hair, and slamming his head into the cave wall, leaving blood trickling down his head, and his right ear ringing loudly. Albert groaned, and rolled so he was facing Blake, and before he could make another comment, Blake continued, "And now, I'm going to make sure that you won't ever be able to go home." ----------------------- In the kingdom of Valenlon a prince is hidden away due to the threat of attack, but that turns out to be the biggest mistake Valenlon ever made.
