𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠

This story includes depictions of violence, torture, and other gruesome topics. If you are sensitive to these topics, please click off this book. There will be no smut/sexual scenes in this book, it's gross and it makes me uncomfortable, and I wish to neither read nor write it. 

𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞

This book is not complete and this is simply a preview. Make sure to follow me and add this to your reading list to know when it comes out!

Also, this cover was made by me and it's pretty bad, so if anyone is/knows a cover maker that can make me one, that would be amazing!

Prince Zyran, son of King Emris, heir to the throne, Prince of the kingdom of Everett. He had a beautiful and sheltered childhood, and nobody prepared him for the real world.

But now war is raging between Everett and Ronan, thousands of men are dying, and the king is gravely sick. The pressure breaks the prince, who passes his days locked inside his room.

Princess Amariah is the heir to the throne of the kingdom of Ronan. She was taught to wield the sword like a warrior and to use the bow like she was part of the army. To her and her parents, emotions meant weakness, so she kept everything bottled up in a secret chamber of her heart. When war comes, she wants no part in it.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

When King Emrin was a young prince, he discovered a sword. An ancient sword, that belonged to the very founders of Everett. This weapon is priceless, a relic of the past. And it disappeared.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯✧⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Will Prince Zyran sacrifice everything to end the war and claim the sword, or will the love in his heart stop him?
