Lianna Velcross, a girl who came from nothing, with no family, no worth to her name, and no place in the world. Enverna Alteri, a young woman carrying the weight of an entire house's expectations on her shoulders. One wants nothing more than to have a purpose, the other has one but cannot possibly fulfill it. These two women who would never have crossed paths normally end up with their fates being intertwined when a Constellation decides to empower them both, on one condition... That these strangers, from different nations with different beliefs, get married. And, both of them accept. --- A GL story about a marriage arranged by a higher power!
{Zura}
Zura's heart pounded in her chest as she followed closely behind Vayn and Athene along the dimly lit path.
The air was cool and musty, the faint scent of damp earth clinging to every corner.
Shadows danced eerily on the walls, cast by flickering torchlight that barely illuminated their surroundings.
"So, uh, where exactly are we?" Zura's asked slightly nervously, her gaze darting around the narrow corridor.
Vayn, leading the way with quiet confidence, spared a glance back at Zura.
"This used to be a dungeon," she explained calmly, her steps steady despite the tension in the air. "Abandoned a pretty long time ago. Not many people know about it. It leads out of Garriden. In a few minutes, a car should arrive at the exit to take us to the village. That's the plan."
As they progressed deeper, Zura's eyes widened at the sight of skeletal remains, their bones bound in rusty chains.
