Moonfire & Midnight Pt 1
An exiled princess, a poisoned husband, and a battle for power-Eirian Soliel refuses to be forgotten, but can she turn a cold marriage into a fiery alliance before it's too late? First cousin to the King and the darling of the Court of Sorrow, Eirian has spent most of her life indulging all her whims and fantasies under the protection of her royal blood, but when her father's sudden re-marriage results in a son, she finds herself suddenly shuffled aside. On top of that, her longtime on-and-off romantic partner suddenly betrays her. Instead of proposing to her, he shows up to her birthday ball, married to a low-ranked Lady without a word of warning. Eirian's life is upended, and her stepmother succeeds in exiling her into an arranged marriage with a general who never leaves the distant borderland. Regimented, completely disinterested in the capitol and the Court, and dying from a poison no one can identify, her new husband would rather continue his simple life with his mistress than welcome his new wife, but Eirian refuses to go down without fight. Determined to make a place for herself if she cannot find one, Eirian finds herself facing an enemy she never expected, and she underestimates her shy, gentle husband. Will the General fall for his vivacious Princess, or will Eirian be set aside again?![The Lottery | ONC 2020 [***ONC Shortlister!***]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/213531399-256-k687068.jpg)

Cole Glassad couldn't care less about the upcoming palace ball meant to find a wife for the prince. Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal. With life a living hell, she has barely enough energy to care for the injured animals she tends in secret, much less a party for the royal family that cares so little for her and the people like her. It isn't until a mysterious man appears out of the shadows, claiming to be one of the long-lost faeries and offering her a chance at freedom, that she begins to see hope. In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line. With her mission clear, Cole enters the world of the palace to learn about the prince and find a way into his ball. But dark secrets, violent plots, a strange sense that perhaps the prince isn't as bad as the faerie makes him seem, and a life-changing discovery about her past, all conspire to make Cole's shot at freedom messy and difficult. She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.Lengkap
The Reckoner
"And why do you need me?" "Well, you see, little queen, you're to marry my brother." There's silence and then, "Marry your brother?! Ha! You're more of a fool then I thought." I'm still snorting when I hear the sound of his horse move next to mine and I feel a large hand grip my face. I meet his stormy grey eyes, and even upside down I can see the wickedness inside them. "You're going to marry him, little queen," he says softly, "or you and your entire county will go up in flames." As I stare into his soulless eyes, I don't doubt his threat. "Who are you?" I whisper. "I thought you were smarter than that," he shakes his head and moves back to his position in front of me and Lomech. "Sweetheart, I am the Reckoner." ~There once were dragons. There once was love.

The feared Crimson King
I flinch as his hand reaches to my face, and aggressively pulls down the cloak from my head. He surveys my tear stained face and jewelry all the way down to my dress. Then he speaks, "what's your name?" I open my mouth but no words come out. Fear grips me again. "I believe I asked you a question," his eyes grow darker. "Al-Alice" I whisper.

Moonfire & Midnight Pt 2
Once the dazzling darling of the Court of Sorrow, Eirian's future is stolen when her father remarries and produces a male heir. Cast aside and exiled into a political marriage at the empire's volatile border, she expects to disappear quietly into irrelevance. Instead, she finds Chenzhou. Quiet, honorable, and already dying from a mysterious poison no one can name, Chenzhou has no interest in court politics-or in the wife forced upon him. But Eirian is not a woman who fades. As she pushes her magic into the land, restoring a dying estate, she begins to uncover the truth behind his illness-and the enemies gathering around them. It is through Chenzhou that she meets Mingzhe, a trusted figure from the court and one of the few men who moves easily between worlds. What begins as cautious cooperation grows into something rare: a fragile bond of trust between three people navigating power, loyalty, and survival in a court that has already discarded them. Together, they begin to rebuild-strengthening the borderlands, stabilizing Chenzhou's condition, and quietly resisting the forces working against them. But the deeper Eirian digs, the clearer the truth becomes. Chenzhou's illness is no accident. It is the foundation of a long-buried conspiracy within the powerful Yang family-one designed to reshape the empire itself. And Mingzhe, unknowingly entangled through years of quiet influence and misplaced trust, stands at the center of it. What began as loyalty becomes betrayal-not born of malice, but of manipulation-and its consequences threaten to destroy everything they have built. With war rising at the borders and treachery rooted deep within the court, Eirian and Chenzhou must decide whether trust can be rebuilt-or if survival demands something colder. It's the truth that might finish what it started.
