    Summary

    When a voice calls out to her, an intern at a highly renowned and highly secretive biopharmaceutical company stumbles upon a laboratory hidden under their building. She finds a folder detailing experiments and research of things she thought were fantasy-portals, other realms, promises of immortality. That voice though...It continues to call for her, seemingly coming from a beacon of light in this lab. When she touches it, she is suddenly transported into a world that is not her own. She finds herself lost in this new world, unable to speak their language or understand their magic. She was a human in another life, a fae in this one, but she comes to find her soul seems to be connected to something else entirely.

    With the war against Hybern still brewing, the Inner Court needs all the help they can get. The cauldron had pulled her in Prythian for a reason and she agrees to help them in hopes that once her purpose has been served, the cauldron would return her home. But there is someone in this new world that does not want her to leave-someone claiming to be her mate, a certain shadowsinger.

    Summary

    “Azriel, huh?” I said. I could feel blood sliding down the side of my neck. My arms were completely numb below the elbows, already beginning to prickle painfully. He didn’t acknowledge my words, never even glancing at my face. He shifted in preparation to stand without losing his balance or his grip on me, and I winced as his knees pressed into my upper arms and his full weight bore down.

    Suddenly, my shadows shifted, just as I saw his curl up over his shoulder. He stiffened slightly as the shadows formed tendrils that brushed up his neck, curling around his ear and threading up through his hair. More tendrils of darkness flowed over the smooth, black material of his tunic, flowing over his broad shoulders and dripping down towards me like tar.

    My own shadows were swirling, their whispering in my ear building to a frenzy. I couldn’t make out the words – there were too many voices at once, and the noise was building and building. My shadows twisted and then reached upwards like a handful of spindly fingers reaching out of a grave.

    Hazel eyes flicked to mine, and I saw the surprise in them just as our shadows touched, brushing against each other and then surging forwards to embrace completely.

    Summary

    Prythian was amid a time of peace; a feat that its inhabitants had fought for and defended for decades and centuries. The Inner Circle, ever-growing with new additions, maintained a steady rule over their territory and trained their heirs to cultivate and nurture everything that they had once sacrificed for.

    As an Heiress to the High Lord and Lady's throne, Valeria would go to the ends of their World and any others in existence for her Court and her people, no matter the cost. Had grown into her power and strength and cunning to do just that.

    But there was an evil inside of her; a beast clawing at the cages she so dutifully enforced to keep it secured. And as that beast of night and shadow raged through the darkest depths of her begging for release, fear of the danger she posed and the weight of a crown not yet donned threatened to bring her to her knees.

    However, Valeria bowed to nobody. And once the gates of Realms were open and her family and continent were faced with an impossible war alongside allies from Worlds she had not known to exist, the choice to yield herself to the creature within proved to be as heavy as any throne. Whether it would be their salvation or ruin, she had yet to decide.
