The war has begun.

With the fae realm under attack and the truth behind the King and Queen's murder finally exposed, Daella has been left behind-safe within the palace walls, far from the front lines where Alvaryn and Aeris now fight.

But safety feels like a prison.

Haunted by nightmares and aching with the loss of the men she loves, Daella struggles to control the changes unfolding inside her-power she doesn't understand and can no longer hide.

Her only help comes from the last person she wants it from:
Demwyn, the newly crowned King. Cold. Unyielding. Bound by duty.
Forced into her life by obligation, not choice.

But as war rages beyond the palace gates and secrets tighten like a noose, Daella and Demwyn are pushed together in a game neither of them want to play.

Hate begins to blur. Trust begins to form.
And in the silence between the chaos... something new begins to grow.
Please follow and read along in their journey.

"Did he do this to you my queen?" Dark onyx eyes searched her own for an answer. "It does not signify." She said bitterly. "It is none of your concern, my lord. Good night." Before she could turn away, gentle hands gripped her in place. She met the lord before her's eyes again. "It is taking all the restraint I possess, your grace, to ask this as a man of my station should. Did he do this to you?" His face was hard, and body pulled taut. She could feel rage vibrating off of him. She gulped at his words. "It does not matter what he does to me, he is my husband and your king." She hissed, hoping she could deter his wrath with the threat of death. "It does not matter who he is, I will tear him limb from bloody limb." He clearly did not seem to care. Fuck...

Crown of Shadows by Kay_kitsunie
18 parts Ongoing Mature
In Tenebris, love is a weapon - and the most beautiful promises are the ones designed to break you. Lady Selene of House Auclair has spent her life in silence, haunted by a bloodline the Empire wants forgotten. Her betrothal to Prince Reverien Latimer is not mercy. It is a warning. The court calls it peace. But beneath the marble floors and moonlit halls, everyone knows this union was forged with ulterior motives - power, punishment, and something far darker. The Imperial Court is a nest of predators draped in silk. Smiles hide sharpened teeth. Secrets bleed through the walls. And Selene, the quiet noblewoman they dismissed, is far more dangerous than they realized. Her fiancé is no exception. Reverien is a man carved from discipline and shadows - a prince with cold hands, a colder reputation, and loyalties bound in blood. Yet he is drawn to Selene in ways neither of them can afford. Their bond is not gentle. It is a slow-burning collision of defiance, desire, and unspoken hunger - a partnership that could save an empire... or shatter it from within. As whispers sharpen into threats and forbidden longing coils between them, Selene must decide which is more perilous: the danger stalking the court... or the prince who shares her bed. Because in Tenebris, a single kiss can crown you - or condemn you.

,,THE IRON DIVIDE" For generations, war has raged across Tharador, its origins forgotten by all. Maerith hides her identity as a knight, and Calyx is the man both feared and desired. Amid masks, intrigues, and deadly proximity, she must choose: trust... or survival. ... For decades, the great Houses of Veyren and Althaire have drowned the land in endless bloodshed, their feud dividing Tharador across mist-shrouded rivers. Maerith carries the legacy of her fallen father, once loyal to House Veyren, and knows survival is a battle of steel and shadow - but nothing could prepare her for Calyx Althaire: brilliant, ruthless, and feared by all, the one man who could decide her fate with a single motion. To him, she is the key - the one who could bring his enemy to ruin. Captured, betrayed, and forced into proximity with the enemy she was trained to hate, Maerith must navigate a world where every glance hides a blade, every word carries a threat, and trust is a luxury she cannot afford. As storms rage across Tharador, alliances twist and betrayals abound, pushing Maerith and Calyx toward a destiny that neither fully controls. Their journey will demand loyalty, cunning, and the kind of courage that can change the course of kingdoms. In a land ruled by blood, lies, and shifting loyalties, only one thing is certain: Maerith will not go quietly - and neither will he. Enemies to lovers. Masks and deception. Survival, desire, and power collide in a dark fantasy world where hearts are as dangerous as swords.
