The Wizard and The Warrior

Centuries ago prophets predicted the rise of a great wizard and a formidable warrior who would save the people of their land. Now an invasion fleet is heading for Aria, is it time for the Wizard and the Warrior to arise and save them all? Runaway bride Aliah wants to be more than someone’s wife. Fleeing his destiny, Seamus has no idea what he wants from his future. Thrown together by fate, the two journey to the nation’s capital; one to warn the king of an impending invasion, the other to do the unthinkable—train to be a wizard. Their chance encounter takes them on a wild adventure where they must face their pasts and decide their future, all while helping Aria prepare to defend itself. However, fate has not finished with Seamus and Aliah. In an unexpected twist, they are placed at the very centre of the conflict facing their home, and must decide whether or not to take up the challenge. With the gods on their side, it should be easy for Aliah and Seamus to identify and locate the real power behind the invasion and find a way to defeat him; all while pulling together a support team and having mid-night lessons to learn how to use their newly acquired magical tokens. Well, it would be if the gods weren’t hiding more than they shared. Aria’s future hangs in the balance, can two runaways tip the scales? What one reader : Great book. I was hooked on the storyline.

Chapter 21: From Dream to Nightmare

ALIAH

Aliah froze. 'Eldest daughter? Me?'

She clenched her fists. This could not be happening.

'But surely you can't give in to this man. You always told me if you give in once to a bully you are leaving yourself open to be bullied again,' Aliah spluttered as she tried to gather her thoughts.

'I am sorry, my darling, matters of state are a little different to courtyard politics. We, my advisors and I, can see no way around his request at this time. It is not as if you did not know that your marriage would be arranged to benefit the state.' He stroked her hand, but Aliah would not meet his eyes. She was frowning and it was like a darkness had clouded her vision.
