After slaying the king, it will take everything I have to keep Ellery safe, especially once my father assumes the throne. I’d known that killing one monster would only lead to the rise of another, but I was blind to the coming storm.

Landing a job at The Dragonne Library, a haven for magical books, should have been a dream come true. Instead, an accidental bonding with a powerful dragon throws me headfirst into a world of danger and desire. There's the loyal gargoyle shifter with his quiet strength. The arrogant fae with a chip on his shoulder. The tormented professor hiding a broken heart. And the shadowfae who seems to know my every secret.

I was born with a curse that spun a violent storm around me, seizing every beautiful and fragile thing that flittered into my life, tearing it all from my grasp as effortlessly as the wings of a butterfly are torn from its body. Or so I thought, anyway. It all changed when they came for me, when they dragged me to trial for my crimes. I should have faced execution, but fate is a fickle and funny thing, taunting me with the knowledge that I was always destined to be so much more.

To prove the purity of my soul, I sacrificed everything. I lost my magic, my best friend, and tied myself to the five kings of the afterworld in unholy matrimony. Now, every day is torture at their hands. I am their final hope, a perfect weapon to wield in the ultimate war still looming ahead of us. They will push me as far as it takes, no matter what.

I had been torn apart and remade, a marionette to dance over the coals of this world, stitched together by my tormentors. The great masters thought they could break me down and own me. They were wrong. I had won my freedom, my place in this world, my golden-eyed protector by my side. Until it happened again; the grim call of fate looking out at me through eyes of darkness, the great masters waiting with the power I needed, curses and promises in their hands. It was time to make another deal. It was time to play their game in earnest.

What began as a war of force had turned to one of secrets and strategies. An army was amassing in the shadows, hidden from our eyes, slipping into our ranks until there was nowhere safe to turn, and nobody left to trust. To win the war, I would be forced to forget the man I trusted, and to bind myself to the men I hated. Forever. Since the first day, the great masters have fought for control over me, fought to claim me in marriage and seize my power for themselves. Every step of the way, they’ve asked me to choose.

Born a daughter into the kingdom of Jinu, Xiuying knows nothing but rejection and betrayal, even as a young child. She is left forgotten and raised by maids while her parents, disgraced by her gender, tells the rest of the kingdom that she’s dead, when the only thing she wants is love. And eventually, her father and king, Qianfan, sends her away to an abandoned island… to die.

Xiaofan, the princess of Jinu, thinks she has it all. Her parents love her. Her father gives her everything she’s always wanted. And she looks down at the peasants from her high throne like she’s better than them. But then her parents have another child. Jinhai, the first-born son. The future king of Jinu. And Xiaofan feels her entire world crumbling beneath her. To make matters worse, she discovers that she has an older sister, Xiuying, whom her parents had sent away many years ago. And now they’re telling her she’s next.

Qianfan’s wishes have finally come true. After years and years of trying, the kingdom of Jinu has been blessed with a son! Jinhai, the new prince and his father’s greatest joy. However, disappointment ensues when Qianfan realizes that Jinhai is nothing like him. That he’s weak, emotional, and unfit to be a king. A shame to the family name. But Jinhai knows that he can become the greatest king of all, the greatest king to the people who live within the kingdom walls.
