A Kingdom of Gods and Monsters

Viviene Noel

In a realm ruled by ancient gods and haunted by monstrous secrets, a defiant princess must rise-or watch the kingdom fall to the darkness that birthed her.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a kingdom steeped in cruel traditions and buried magic, she will find that answers have a wicked way of waltzing with those who seek them.

Through a web of wits and luck, Mahena and the twins have slipped past the gates of the Scholar Kingdom. But with political unrest simmering within its walls, gaining the cooperation of the young Princess is a battle of its own.

When Fate comes knocking on your door, refusing her is a dance of devils even the strongest can only evade for so long.

For Princess Nepherym Vasselian, binding her soul to a demon to save her people was not enough to earn forgiveness; her defiance of The Cloak remains a stain on her name. But the shamed child is gone, replaced by a young woman willing to bleed for the knowledge of the dead and the crown she never sought to claim. Valàander is a realm forged by gods and monsters, and when the demon within her stirs in Mahena's presence, it ignites a spark both dangerous and unexpected.

When Mahena is presented with the offer to save the Prince's life in exchange for access to the libraries, her decision awakens darker events. With proof of her connection to magic unfolding and the little voice stirring dark thoughts in her mind and heart, fear of what she might truly be terrifies her-and yet she has never felt more alive. As her distrust of Fàaran grows, her connection with Emmerentia deepens, and visions of a mist-shrouded figure haunt her. But the game is shifting, and her missing memories might be the key to everything.

As hidden pasts unravel and buried truths rise to the surface, unlikely allies emerge from the shadows. But with an enemy hell-bent on claiming the world, how much time is left before darkness consumes them all?
