The eldest daughter of a high noble family, Adilya Castain lives a seemingly perfect life. That life is ruined, however, when her entire family is murdered in an undermined political plot unbeknownst to her. The only remaining Castain alive and being furiously hunted by an unknown enemy, Adilya flees for her life in hopes of finding out who did this and why. Along her flight, she meets two unexpected allies: Brendan, a former knight who claims to have been framed for murder, and Miranda, a care-free, mysterious mage with deep secrets. Together, the three must survive while seeking the answers to their dilemmas, which are tied together in more ways than they can imagine.

The Withering Ones
"Those who's eyes gleam with power Will wither and will fall, And those who only have eyes for another, Will rise above them all." "As you are well aware, we are at war," council leader Sir Ptolemus Brom announced to the twins in a meeting, only minutes after the coronation. "The public is already concerned about a joint rule, and in their minds you two are innocent children being pulled into a mess of politics; and quite frankly, you are. But we don't have time for that. We need to show them a leader." ----- Seventeen year old twin orphans, Alexandria and Kalyssa Leirin are both the queens of Amaria. It's unheard of. It's unruly. It's completely rash. Yet it works. Their mother died in childbirth, and their father was assassinated by highly skilled warriors from the rival nation of Aidana. An attack masterfully orchestrated by the Aidanian King himself. A self centered and narcissistic ruler who had lived a privileged life. As princesses, the twins had been secretly trained behind their father's, and their country's back, to kill. And now, in a time of sacrifice, war, and a touch of romance, they must use all they've learned to guide them, and to save their falling kingdom.
