"Not only will I survive. I will win!" - Cassandra.
With four failed engagements under her belt, Lady Cassandra La Roche was considered a failure in all of Zealandia. Her upcoming marriage to Prince Hunter, made her story more depressing than the most heartbreaking novels in the country. Except, the marriage was just a part of her calculations, something that she needed to do to hide her big secret and hide herself from an even bigger enemy.
Determined to change her tragic fate, Cassandra would do everything to avoid her cruel end. Even if that means becoming the wife of the future king of the dark forces, Prince Hunter Corvus who also happened to be the man that wanted her dead.

“Simple. It’s you or no one else.”- Hunter
As someone who was hiding a past darker than his motives, Prince Hunter Corvus thought marriage as an inconvenience. Known for being crippled, unable to wield elements again, the prince never wanted another engagement that would only end up with him killing his future bride. However, what he did want was the audacious woman who claimed to know the future and insisted that she could save him from his apparent demise.

As dark forces conspire to kill Cassandra, the one who could see the future, the two realized that marriage was just the first phase in thwarting a plan so evil it could change humanity forever.
Excerpt:
"You are very fortunate dear Cassandra." He smiled, twirling the glass of wine in his hand.
She arched an eyebrow in response. "Why is that?"
"I've shared my story over the years. At that time, I lacked the insight to understand the madness happening around me. I told them my story just before I ended their miserable life. Oh! I remember the venomous words they spewed when they realized that knowing my secret… meant death.” He made a deliberate pause, his brown eyes staring in her blue ones.
“However, you, my lovely wife is lucky to hear my story and survive the night."
