Annabra Series Book 1
"I took a tighter grip on my bow and in a split second decided now was the time. I put one foot out to the side of the tree, shifted my core balance to that foot, and let the other one follow it, I was facing towards my prey, whatever it was and I closed my eyes as I shot the arrow straight into its' heart. My prey wasn't prey. It was Death. The arrow fell to the ground and Death laughed, he laughed at my foolish efforts to defeat him. You couldn't kill death, but Death could kill you." - Chapter 17

Prequel: The Unbound - Awakening
Before she was the hunted, she was the heir. Aria was born with a crown on her head and a cage around her ribs. As the daughter of the Serpent House, her life was a blueprint of bloodlines and duty: Secure Nexus mates from within the House. Awaken the Gift buried in her bones. Preserve the legacy at any cost. But Aria was never made to follow. And fate doesn't care for tradition. Her heart already belonged to the one man she was forbidden to love - her brother's best friend. And when her Gift finally stirred, it wasn't the weapon her family had waited for. It was quiet. Unexpected. A power they barely acknowledged - and one she was never meant to wield. Torn between the life she was born into and the power awakening inside her, Aria makes a single, irreversible choice. One that fractures her family, shatters her destiny, and lights a fuse beneath everything she thought she understood. Rebellion is no longer a rumor. Enemies wear familiar faces.

Silent Echo: The Prophecy Of Azureth
Thousands of years ago, in an act of balancing the good and bad, a prophecy was made by the two bridge-keepers of Azureth and Earth, Velkrith and Edrakar. The prophecy stated; A time shall come when a child, born upon Earth, awakens to true consciousness and mastery of such gifts that the seal between realms tremble, for the dark emperor of Azureth, Malakai, to rise. The king's wicked power will pierce the fabric of peace that has long divided the worlds. And when that day arrives, no man will remain to tell the tales of the fall of Earth again. In that hour, the chosen child shall stand at the edge of destiny - to either guard the light or surrender to the darkness for eternity. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Credits to @marielveve on tiktok for this amazing book cover idea.
