Four years ago, war decimated an entire country...

Lantana was a slave for years. When she saves the life of an officer, she's brought to the Academy to study magic. At sixteen, she's about to take her final exam, but events go horribly wrong and she has to escape the greedy clutches of the Branbar Emperor. Lantana has a dangerous secret to keep, and a power that could tear the whole nation apart.

Matthias Von Schwartz is a nobleman, heir to the family name and the only one to befriend Lantana. When Lantana flees the country, Matthias is charged with tracking her down. He is faced with a choice between loyalty and following his heart, but a royal secret could unravel everything he believes.

Garrett Karius leads the citizens of a destroyed land, but he also has a personal mission, one he's trained for ever since the fall of his homeland. He's sworn revenge against the ones who killed the only person he loved years ago. But the green-eyed girl who stumbles into his life makes his heart waver and question everything he knew about the past.

The paths of the three begin to entwine and their meeting may cause a storm that makes the whole world tremble.

Thanks to @aneonsky for the lovely cover!

This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to real people and events is coincidental. I mean, there's no talking horses in reality, so if that event is somehow coincidental, then I think you'd better see a shrink, mate.

You've just woken in the woods, away from everything you know. You're dazed and confused, unable to comprehend what's just happened. As you are coming to, images flash before your eyes of the last few days. Your parents were taken by the police, you were forced to run, to leave everything behind, to save yourself and your sister. But she isn't here. You panic and look around, you stop. You remember. She too was taken, you are alone. For now. This is what happened to Alexander, his life has just been turned upside down. The year is 2415, the world has both evolved and devolved. It isn't how people imagined. Flying cars, robots in every house, telekinetic pencils. No, they are only in comic books. Self driving cars. No robots in houses, but workhouses instead. Telekinetic pencils... that's possible, if you are gifted with the power of telekinesis. There are dark truths hidden behind closed doors, that only few know. Truths that if they got out, would bring the downfall of the government. A government that has been deceiving people for generations. But they haven't been as careful as they thought, because 100 years ago, one guy found out their secrets. 100 years ago, one guy started the rebellion that would bring about the end. From burning books, rewriting history and breaking human rights, this government will stop at nothing to make it seem that they are doing good. But people have had enough, the secret came out before. It's only a matter of time until it happens again. This time by a group of people that no one expected. Together they work to find out the truth, but things have gotten worse over the last century and this may not only bring around the downfall of the government. Armed only the powers they were born with, the group do everything they can to discover the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. But many have tried and failed, do they really stand a chance? Alexander doesn't think so, but his main concern is finding his sister, Rosia.

Soon, the reality of the perfect country he lives in is shattered and his freedom compromised when an old friend becomes the centre of a government investigation in which the penalty is death.

Niccola is a demi-queen undercover in enemy territory. Her little sister went missing seven moons ago, but one lead remains: a picture of a woman's face, drawn by a diviner shortly after the disappearance. Tracking her down has led Niccola to Calis, the realm next door whose border with her own remains closed for a reason. There, the trail goes cold. Until, that is, Niccola runs into a man in the marketplace who bears a family resemblance to the woman she seeks. His name is Isaiah, crown prince of Calis, and he's investigating disappearances, too. They join forces, faking courtship to sneak Niccola into the palace and get Isaiah's wedding-minded mother off his back. It doesn't take long to suspect that a common threat might underpin both their realms' problems. And as Niccola begins to develop real feelings for Isaiah, she's faced with an impossible choice: reveal her secrets and risk breaking his trust, or leave him in order to chase down the woman who stole her sister... a woman whose forbidden magic comes with a cost that could bring both realms to ruin. ❖❖❖ Complete and fully edited.

The love interest is violent, and the stereotypical Made Man, meaning this book will have non-consensual relationships, where the male lead is quite literally the incarnation of the devil himself.
