Forbidden Rose

a story that I started on the royal road that I am unsure if I should continue ============================== In a kingdom where the dead walk and the darkness whisper of doom, salvation rests in the hands of the broken, the discarded, and the damned. Once a name that inspired fear, Kaius was a warlord whose conquests left rivers of blood in their wake. Now, burdened by the weight of his sins, he lives in exile, haunted by the faces of the slain. But when a rising tide of undead threatens to devour the shattered remnants of Xanvern, Kaius is forced to confront his past and the ghosts it left behind. At the heart of this terror is a cabal of necromancers, wielding magic so vile it twists life itself into abominations. Their ranks swell with the enslaved dead, and whispers of betrayal echo through Xanvern as dark cults rise to worship them. To banish this suffocating darkness, Kaius must embrace the agony of his past, transforming himself into a weapon of fear and destruction. In a world where mercy is a death sentence and compassion is devoured by the shadows, survival demands he abandon his humanity. To save Xanvern, Kaius must walk the line between human and inhuman. But in the end, will he save the kingdom—or damn it to eternal darkness? To fight monsters, must one also become a monster?. (I'm a new author so I have no idea what I'm doing. Please don't expect much from me.)

Or will the overwhelming troubles of love and war be too much for her to bear? *** “And what if you, too, are unable to help?” Alice threw the question back. “What if helping would risk everything?” Spade didn’t miss a beat. “You are everything.” “Don’t say things that you don’t mean,” Alice chided. “You’ll leave a trail of broken hearts.” “And would you believe me if I say that I have no intention of breaking yours?” Spade countered. “However, mine is yours to play with. Shatter it, fix it, do anything you desire. As long as it feels the warmth of your hand, I am content.” *** Image used in cover not mine.

The small town of HeathCroft was well-known for its family of mysterious billionaires, the Zuris. Lauriel and James Zuri, the parents, were well-liked philanthropists who would visit an orphanage every few years and adopt a child to welcome into their family. All the children previously adopted by the Zuri's had something special about them-some talent or potential that made them deserving of a new home. The people of HeathCroft believed that the Zuris were doing a noble act by giving these children a chance to exercise their potential and let them be. However, when the newest arrival, Adrianne Zuri, joined the family, it raised a couple eyebrows. Adrianne Zuri went against all the invisible requirements the townspeople believed you needed to complete to become a Zuri. She was illiterate, didn't seem to have any creativity in her blood, and was overall as ordinary as one could be in a family of extraordinary individuals. What the HeathCroftian townspeople didn't know was that Adrianne was by far the most peculiar member of the entire Zuri family. ---- credits to @NoelleAnn397 for the cover
