In a realm fractured by rebellion and centuries of mistrust, Princess Kiralyn Vaelora has spent her life behind palace walls, trained to be a symbol of unity while never truly trusted with the crown she's meant to inherit. When she's taken hostage by Cael Draven-the exiled prince of the once-feared kingdom of Varanor-she expects cruelty, not diplomacy. But Cael doesn't want war. He wants peace, and he's willing to risk everything to force the world to see Varanor not as rebels, but as survivors. What begins as a political standoff soon unravels the truths both of them were raised to believe. As Kira and Cael navigate fragile truces, simmering attraction, and the haunting power of their rare, forbidden bond, they uncover secrets that shake the foundation of both their kingdoms-including a plan that would see Cael destroyed and Kira used as a weapon. With rebellion reignited and loyalty torn between blood and heart, Kira must choose: follow the legacy of a mother who would burn the world to control it, or stand beside the enemy she was never meant to love. To protect the future, she will have to break everything. Perfect for fans of slow-burn enemies-to-lovers, political intrigue, dragon bonds, and fierce heroines claiming their own power. Disclaimer: This story is inspired by ACOtAR, particularly Rhysand and Feyre. I understand this is a fast pace but I assure my next piece will be better :)

She always felt like an outsider in this house. It was like she was a guest who had stayed too long. Her cousin's cold stares, Chachi's sharp words, and the hidden insults reminded her daily that she wasn't welcome. She was quiet, gentle, and really close to her faith, but being so reserved made her an easy target. Even though she seemed soft, there was a strength inside her that no one could see. Her brown eyes showed a mix of hope and sadness, and her love for Feras was something she kept hidden, even though she wasn't sure he could ever feel the same. Feras was different. He didn't talk much and had a strong sense of right and wrong. Tall with piercing eyes, he had this calm but serious presence. He didn't show much emotion, keeping everything locked inside, yet he somehow looked out for Anam. He wasn't mean, but he wasn't warm either. He was a mystery she couldn't figure out. But fate had its own plans. The lies buried deep in their family were going to come to light, and Anam would find herself at the center of it all. It would force Feras to make a choice: save her... or destroy her. Start date: 19 November 2024 Finish date: 18 December 2024 This is my first ever book. Please ignore all the grammar mistakes as English isn't my first language, and give this story a try. I promise it's worth your time, and who knows? You might even enjoy it more than you expect! 😉
