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?

David ignored Ash completely as my Knight strode for the door, walking straight to my side and pulling up the chair Ash had been in when I woke.
As the door closed with a sharp thud, I could breathe again.
David threw a dark glance toward the now-closed door, but then lowered himself into the chair and immediately reached for my hand, pulling it up to his mouth so he could kiss my knuckles.
"How are you?" he asked quietly, scanning me like he'd find a hidden wound.
"I'm fine! A little tired. But when I don't move it doesn't hurt at all. And I can move without losing my breath now."
"Good, that's good." But he sounded like he wasn't really thinking about his words. Like his mind was somewhere else entirely.
