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?

A Dreadful Night – Part 3
~ DAVID ~
I was already hurrying through the passages on my way to Zara, but I caught their voices through the thin walls and heard their argument before I even got the passageway door open. When I reached the room and realized my wife was retreating and that man—that man who'd been charged with protecting her was backing her up and not giving her space—it was a battle not to simply launch myself at the man and snap his neck before he even knew I was there.
A small voice in the back of my head screamed caution along with a rush of anger.
As I stepped into the room, Zara came up against the wall and my teeth ground, but then that fucker put his hands on her in anger and I almost killed him, right there.
"Get your hands off my Queen… or lose them," I snarled.
