Darkness In The Light
Ophelia was raised by a single mother and only knows her father through stories her mother tells her. Everything changed as a six-year-old Ophelia witnessed a hell-hound take her mother’s life away. She never understood how monsters got within the walls, and why the Royal Capes did not come in time.
Sent to a corrupt orphanage, she spent early morning training alongside the soldiers in a nearby training camp, collecting cotton throughout the day and practising her magic in the night’s secret. No one paid any mind to her, and that was what she wanted. Until she made a friend with another orphan, who she regrettably trusted with a secret which led eyes to her.
The orphanage sold Ophelia to a brothel because of her beauty, but her odd eye colours had made her a servant. One mistress took an interest in Ophelia, teaching her how to read and write. At age thirteen, the brothel wants her to ‘work’. So, she ran away and disguised herself as a boy, Lucas, and joined the Royal Cape training camp.
Lucas (Ophelia) a social outcast and is always working on his skills, alone. On the annual Monster Hunt, Lucas amazed everyone and scored the highest rank than the Royals of the Five Kingdoms.
Everyone wanted her, and she had to choose. However, Lucas chooses not to continue with the Royal Cape, as Ophelia has other plans. She realises she wanted the people who hurt her family to suffer.
Years passed, Ophelia returned to the Odin Kingdom. The Royal Capes still wants her to return, but what is important to Ophelia is revenge. Her investigation leads her to something sinister, involving the royals, the church and an old enemy… The Demon King.
Will Ophelia get her revenge?
Are people going to discover Lucas’ true identity?
And everything connected?
Author's Note: I have placed the story on hold as I will change the plot and worldbuilding section.
