Lest Darkness Fall

"Do you wish to know what will happen if I drink from your thighs?" Salviana drew in a sharp breath before she whispered, "I might die?"

With royal enemies watching their every move and Salviana’s own hidden powers slowly awakening, the bond between her and Alaric grows more complicated. Can she survive the dangerous world of court politics, where even her husband may not be fully trusted? Or will the weight of the secrets they keep tear them apart before they can discover the truth about each other? Caught between fear and desire, Salviana can’t help but wonder: Will she uncover the man behind the darkness, or will the shadows consume them both? Married to Darkness is a seductive, tension-filled journey into the unknown, where love and power clash in a dangerous dance that could lead to either salvation or destruction.

'Hell is empty and all the devils are here.' -- Williams Shakespeare --- "Should I dip my hands in holy water so I can touch you?" His breath fanned her neck as he spoke close to her ear, causing an anxious shiver to run down her spine. Her eyes widened before narrowing slightly. "You are crazy." She whispered back with a shaking voice. "Why?" He asked, awed. His eyes now staring at her. "Because you would get burned." --- Opposites attract. That’s what everyone says, but light and darkness are two very contrasting entities. Annabelle is the perfect definition of pure and innocent, while on the other hand, Kione is the opposite of that—dark and a devil with an angelic appearance. Too forbidden to be a perfect match.

King Arlen, the last ruler of Nuralar, vanished mysteriously while searching for a powerful, ancient magic said to have been lost with the fall of the empire.

Determined to uncover the truth behind Arlen’s disappearance, Kalen embarks on a dangerous journey to find the ancient secrets that could save or destroy Nuralar. Along the way, he encounters old allies, treacherous foes, and hidden enemies, all while facing the truth about his father’s search for the lost magic that once sustained their kingdom. As Kalen unravels the mysteries of the past, he discovers that his father's search was more than a quest for power—it was an effort to prevent a dark and secretive cult from resurrecting the ancient empire.

Kalen must race against time to stop the cult from unleashing the same destructive force that led to the empire’s fall. But as he delves deeper into the kingdom's history, Kalen realizes that the true power is not just a force of magic, but an ancient curse tied to the royal bloodline. To save his kingdom, he must confront the darkest parts of his own lineage and decide whether to embrace or break the cycle that has haunted his family for generations. In a world where the past’s shadow threatens to consume the future, Prince Kalen’s courage and determination will be tested like never before.
