Once, there was a girl named Concordia.
She was not born in a palace, but her father made one. He took a crown, a kingdom, and a title that didn't belong to him-and gave her the only life she was allowed to live: the life of a princess.
Draped in silver, robed in silk, and sharpened like a blade, she's raised to smile, bow, and bleed for the throne.
Every day, it's the same old lesson: be perfect, or be replaced
Then the Rew return.
They are not monsters, exactly. They are older than monsters-older than memory, than truth, than thrones. With their arrival, the kingdom collapses overnight. Her family is slaughtered. Her people vanish. And Concordia, the girl who was never meant to rule, is left alone to face a world steeped in blood and ruin.
No longer hidden behind her role, she's left with a secret only she seems to understand.
But the deeper she looks, the more the lines blur between myth and memory, between duty and destiny, between who she is and who she was never allowed to become.
If Concordia wants to stop the Rew, she'll have to learn how to cry. How to fight. How to fail gloriously.
Because being a princess isn't who she is.
It's just where her story begins.

My Silver-Haired Demon
A man with a seriously messed up life and a load of mental problems made a lot of mistakes in his life but one stands above the rest. The story is about one man with a broken mind doing everything he can to try and make up for the wrong he did and find the woman he loves. This story is very intense and isn't for light reading. I think of the story like this: This isn't the story of a hero slaying a dragon and rescuing the princess. Nor is this a story about a hero who triumphs over evil and rescues the maiden in peril. This is the story of a man, who fights as much with himself, as he does the world around him. He is no hero, he is simply a man, trying to make the best he can of himself, and fix what he broke. He is both the protagonist, and antagonist of this story, because he does as much harm to himself as he does good.Complete
