Emberly has always felt like she was destined for something more. Living a quiet life as a blacksmith in a small village, she never expected to be thrust into a world of magic and prophecy. But when a mysterious relic awakens a hidden power within her, she learns she is the Heart of Shadows, the only one capable of uniting the elemental forces to defeat an ancient darkness threatening the world.
Four princes-each gifted with the powers of Fire, Earth, Air, and Water-are sworn to protect her. As she journeys with them through dangerous lands, Emberly's magic grows stronger, and so does the bond she shares with each of them. Aedan, the fiery protector; Leif, the gentle earthbound soul; Ryder, the carefree wind spirit; and Kaelen, the enigmatic force of water, each capture her heart in different ways.
But with each step closer to her destiny, the dark force grows more powerful. In a world where magic and fate collide, can Emberly unlock the power within herself-and the love she's found-before the darkness consumes them all?

All I Need ✔️
"You're playing with fire Safania." "Good thing I don't burn." The last words he spoke before throwing me onto my bed sounded like a threat, but felt more like a promise. "You will." *** Don't get caught. Those are the three words Safania has lived by for the past five years. As a marked woman - easily identified by intricate bronze marks on her back and unpredictable special abilities - she has spent the past five years running from anyone who might exploit those abilities...especially the royal families who tortured marked women to build their empires. Starving, exhausted, and frozen, she collapses by the bank of a river just to wake up in her worst nightmare: the chambers of a prince. Prince Cassius is his father's first choice of his three brothers to ascend to the throne. He's smart, strategic, and stoic, unlike his corrupt and depraved brothers. There's just one problem: he has no interest in any of his proposed marital matches, and the King will only pick someone as his successor who he knows will carry on the family line. But once he meets Safania, he finds himself unable to imagine ruling the kingdom without her by his side. Can he convince her to trust him? *** Warning: this story contains mature and potentially triggering themes including domestic violence and sexual assault. Reader discretion is advised.Complete
