The Helio's Bride
A princess with a twisted past. When her fate takes an unfortunate turn, she is thrown off her pedestal and into the web of marriage with the bloodthirsty king of the enemy kingdom. Faced with life and death choices, Delaney must decide whether to side with the enemy—her new husband—or her family who betrayed her. __ As the son of the sun goddess, Darius finds his life unnecessarily long and boring. Until he meets his bride, Delaney, the feisty, fiery princess who is rumored to have rejected suitors by the dozen, the only female descendant of his arch nemesis, and a demon princess. When they get married, will he use her in his quest for revenge, or fall in the trap of her charm like every other male does?

Destrian had spent the entire afternoon in the library but by the time evening rolled by, he had not come any closer to finding what he was looking for. He shook his head at the pile of books on the floor, none of which was what he was looking for.

"Do you think a book like that will be left out for anyone in the castle to access it?"

Delaney walked in, careful not to step on the mess of books as she stepped around them. "Have someone clean this mess up. Your father would go crazy to see all these books strewn all over."
