Heiress of Magic E-BOOK

ESSENCE
They shun her as a beautiful monster, with her scarlet eyes and bone-white hair.
But Essence singlehandedly sustains the Seventh Demesne walls, protecting the walled city from a gray-skinned, sharp-toothed race that seeks to invade.

And then he appears in her city, offering her the one thing she cannot resist: love.

—something I must never speak.
Because this thing is so forbidden that, every night, a shadow enters my room and steals these moments with him from my life.

MELYNDA
A mediocre sorceress at best, Melynda nevertheless desperately tries to protect both Lysium and Essence.
But she must contend with the guildmaster who possesses the souls of her children. She must fend off the master of mages who craves more power. All while resolving the mystery of her assassin lover, a man with an unknown past who's been concealing an unexplained power.

THE ENEMY

Outside the Seventh Demesne, a spirit—once the queen consort of mankind's greatest foe—strives to save humankind. But her lover, the enemy king, has spread his plans throughout the kingdom like a spider web.
Now he watches. And waits. Then he acts. And the city…
