Caught Between Two Worlds

All Celestine ever wanted was to be someone powerful so that she won't be looked down upon. That was what she wished on a blissful night. And that very wish made her life go downhill years later ever since she came across a sacred pendant. When an invitation lands on her lap to the most prestigious university of Adrian, nothing could stop her from going there. That is until her life gets entwined with two men, the cruellest foes of each other which she wishes to escape from. But the universe paints a different picture. On a dreary day, she falls to her near-death and finds herself in the ancient land of Vitalis. With an unintentionally committed crime to her name, she must face the justice of the place where mercy is invaluable and death is inevitable and of little value. And so her trial begins at the mercy of the tainted hands of the Masked Tyrant. Alastair Arden Waldorf. Ruthless, cold-blooded and faceless. When things turn for the worse, will she be able to return to her land and not be involved in a terrifying history? Will she save, kill or escape from the tyrant to the other two men when he shall come for her? Shall love prevail between the two or will they stick to their time to avoid an inevitable curse? ~ WARNING: Mature Content (18+) Cover Design: imagineTishaD (Webnovel) Image Credit: fromKITnoc (DeviantArt) Want to support and interact with the author?

"Why did you not bring it up before?" asked the masked man, the hood of his cloak flying behind him with the wind.

"He had already warned me about his disgraceful punishment if I did," I answered without looking up at his face or meeting his stormy eyes as tears swarmed my eyes. "And I am afraid that you would raise it up now, too, which would still not spare me from his torture."

"If you had done so in the hall, I could have locked him up to rot in the dungeons. I have always heard rumours about him with women, but I didn't believe him to have tortured them disgracefully without the lady's consent on that topic."

"How can you trust my statement, milord? He would have used it against me saying that I was lying since I came from another land that isn't yours. It would be me sitting in the dark cell instead."

"If I witnessed everything and if I command, that shall be the last word passed with none to object it."
