In a world where strength is measured by the heart, not the blade, Zayn Weissland is the warrior everyone fears—and whispers about in the same breath. Hunted by an empire for powers they cannot understand, he has survived every ambush, every bounty, every impossible challenge…so far. But survival is only the beginning. Bound to a restless spirit and driven by a mysterious, forbidden power, Zayn must navigate a world where the strong rise and the timid are crushed, where empires deny the very force that could save—or destroy—them. As he battles foes who test not only his skill but the limits of his soul, Zayn begins to uncover a secret older than the kingdoms themselves: the True Warrior’s Heart. To claim it—and survive—he will need more than speed, strength, and cunning. He will need to face the darkness within…before it consumes him.

He’s sunshine. He’s a cold blade. They’re doomed from the start. -------------------------------------------------------- Alex, the Crown Prince of Vellara who wants anything except a throne, wakes up in a brothel on the morning he’s supposed to meet his Court Mage, William. A man with cold eyes, sharper wit, and a past that turns touch into danger. Their first meeting crashes and burns so publicly that the king snaps and delivers an ultimatum: "One week to get along, before you're magically bound for life". Alex refuses to be tied to someone who clearly despises him; William refuses to serve a prince who shows up late and smiling. So they strike a secret pact: cooperate, sabotage the binding, and find a way to send William as far from court as possible. Simple. Clean. Emotion-free. Until they’re first mission becomes a deadly trap. When enemies start hunting them through lonely corridors and silent forests, saving each other turns into instinct, not duty. And the magical bond they wanted to avoid may become the one thing that might keep them alive. Forced proximity, slow-burn longing, and sharp edges softened by accident. A sunshine prince and his guarded mage caught in a fate neither of them chose.

Marie always thought her life was meant to be spent as an afterthought. As a girl whose parents favored her boyfriend, whose final sacrifice to save him led to her downfall, and whose life ended in a painful haze of regret, she'd convinced herself that her existence amounted to nothing. Even her own death was a decision she made—not out of courage, but despair. But death, it seems, wasn’t the end. When Marie wakes, she’s no longer the broken girl on a hospital bed but Elisha, the young daughter of a fallen duke in a world unlike her own. With beauty and noble blood, Elisha’s face is a reflection of the life of privilege and expectations, in contrast to her sad and pathetic life before. However, this new life of hers is at risk. The dukedom teeters on ruin, enemies close in, and her position as a noblewoman shackles her to the whims of others—this time in a medieval aristocracy. This time, will she be able to protect her future and great life, which she has already lost once before?

Excerpt Aristia could not help but stare at the platinum blonde a few steps in front of her. She seemed to sparkle with a glow that drew people in around her. Something that only happened to the main character of a novel. [Is that stupid book sure I'm the female lead?] She thought, her jaws almost going slack. At this point, she was sure she was deluding herself— or the book was deluding her. She didn't know why, but she already disliked the girl. [This is definitely not jealousy.] She rubbed her brows, watching how the innocent, naive looking girl exuding female lead aura was being flocked around already by others despite her low status. "F*ck, I'm really in deep shit!" — Aristia Andrews had just returned home from work and prepared to go to sleep, when she was given a novel. Nothing strange about that though, huh?

Just the titles and hierarchy were enough to make her smart head spin. With beautiful and loving parents and relatives, a hopelessly adorable younger brother who just might be a sis-con, loyal-to-the-death servants, and a smart brain, join Aristia as she enjoys eating and making delicious cuisines, forms unique friendships, and creates successful businesses. However, she finds all is not as she thought it was; there just might be something bigger than she expected that the book did not reveal— something that could turn her well balanced world upside down. First of all, she discovers that her character is actually hated and not loved. Then, she finds out she's not really the female lead. Now... she has a lot of mysteries surrounding her to unfold, secrets to uncover, and a sad fate to avoid. But... "Hey, why are you looking at me with those eyes? The female lead is over there." "You, stop following me around, will you? You're supposed to hate me!" "Stay back, all of you! What's wrong with you?!" But most importantly... why are these obviously important characters not leaving her alone? And why was the cold, unloving soon-to-be Emperor husband of that powerful Empire paying attention to her instead of the female lead? It wasn't supposed to be like this...
