every night leads to dawn;
i'm the dawn to my father's night.

morana zoreslava created a myth for herself. the crimson mirage, an armada of phantom ships in the ocean. and thus, she found a safe haven in the true sea; where she lived from pirate ship from pirate ship; where she made it her mission to vex a privateer; where she reigned over pirates' fear and greed, savoring every drop of chaos for she could never have peace.

morana zoreslava was a monster. an abomination. cursed from birth to be poison. and now, her past was calling her, beckoning her back, like calls to like, and this time,
morana had no option but to answer the calls of the shadows.

like calls to like
night calls to night

unless morana found her sun

morana zoreslava,
crimson mirage

nikolai lantsov,

"You'll beg? Crawl?
Plead and pray for my touch?
For my love?"

"You want me on my knees, Mora,
all you have to do is say."

❛Go on then, darling.❜

( the ocean was
her  haven  yet
she      yearned
to  find  home )

I do, however, own any change in plot and OCs.

also, this story can be read as a standalone
but it is a book in the same universe as Saints
(my other book) which means there'll be
some changes in plot and spoilers for that book.

both books are completed

warnings:

the following story will contain:
mature language; mature subjects in general;
violence and gore; etc.
Read at your own account.
If you were fine reading Shadow and Bone
