Where Shadows Bloom
I was born an illegitimate daughter to a king.
For twenty-seven years, Asphodell had been my home.
It taught me that vampires were cursed—and something to be feared.
Though half the blood in my veins was vampire.
Then came the terms.
A marriage pact for peace.
I knew exactly what King Lucien was supposed to be.
The man who tears people apart.
I left Asphodell uncertain what was waiting for me.
But when long-buried secrets began to unravel,
something inside me stirred awake.
Where Dead Men Sail
I was a queen with no king.
Born to rule Asphodell, I was taught that duty came before desire.
At eighteen, I was crowned.
And at twenty-five, I was sailing to Sorelia to meet my future husband.
Before we could reach our destination, my ship was taken.
And I was held for ransom.
Captain Dimitrios was my captor.
A ruthless pirate with a dying island.
I set foot on its shores, uncertain what was waiting for me.
I quickly learned the dead did not always stay dead,
and the forgotten could still be found.
