Once upon a dark dream, the gods told me of our ruin, But I wasn’t nearly as afraid as I should have been. The walls of my world are crumbling, and it may be too late to save us. The clock is ticking, and a cruel fate has been laid at my feet, And now I am standing at a crossroads with the blade of destiny in my grip. To strike would be to end us all, but staying my hand is not an option. So perhaps it’s time to accept that my sins may cause the Fae to fall. This is a prequel novella set 1000 years before A Game of Malice and Greed. Once upon a tangled tale of broken hearts and blackened souls, comes a brand new fantasy romance series retelling from the Wall Street Journal and Amazon.com #1 bestselling fantasy romance authors of Zodiac Academy. Step into this world of Fae, gods and curses unlike any retelling you’ve read before. **Please be aware there is mention of rape in this story, though it is not described nor on page.**
