THE CHOICE: My King or My Knight?
[COMPLETE] When Zara walked in on her boyfriend sleeping with another woman, she cursed God for the lack of good men in this miserable, modern world. Then she woke up in a romantic land of honorable Knights and the Royal Court. There, Zara is stunned to find herself one of eighteen women called The Select, from which the handsome, powerful King will choose his bride. She finds the magnetic King compelling. But her dashing Knight Defender has declared his love—and vows to save her from certain death: Tradition requires every woman in the Select who is not the King’s chosen bride to be executed to cover her family’s shame. Yet, the King is also making his intention to win Zara clear. None of this would matter if it was just a dream. But Zara is soon forced to accept that this is no fantasy. Which means each man—and his love—is real. And this world is a deadly nightmare. As the tension between the two men grows, Zara must make a choice. But how can a woman choose between a powerful King and a deadly Knight? Especially when either would kill to keep her? Are you #TeamKing or #TeamKnight?

The doctor they brought for her was from our world. He was certain nothing was broken in her shoulder, but was far more focused on her head and the fact that she'd stayed unconscious for so long.
After the first hour she would seem to be coming out of it—moving, murmuring—but then sink back into a deep sleep, which he said was far more concerning than the bruises on her back and shoulder.
Since both the horses bolted, I'd had to physically carry her back to the estate which had taken almost half an hour. She'd been utterly still and silent that entire time, pale and lifeless. The only thing that gave me courage was that her pulse was steady, and there was no blood on either of her wounds.
