Moonblood and thorns

Dear_Stephanie
Cursed from birth, Princess Elira bears no moonmark—the divine sigil that binds fated mates in the Kingdom of Lysaria. Feared by her people and hidden away like a shameful secret, she is raised in shadows and silence, destined for a loveless political marriage. But when a brutal power stirs beyond the northern veil and war looms, the court offers Elira as tribute to the monstrous Shadow Court—an ancient alliance sealed with blood and seduction. The Shadow Court is no myth. It's ruled by Kaelen, the Nightborne prince exiled for crimes he never confessed to—ruthless, intoxicating, and cursed with a hunger for soulfire. When Elira arrives, veiled in silk and secrets, Kaelen expects a pawn. What he gets is a tempest wrapped in defiance, a woman whose blood sings with forbidden magic… and whose touch brands his skin with a moonmark long thought impossible. Torn between desire and duty, Kaelen must decide whether to consume Elira or crown her. Together, they navigate a web of betrayal, assassins, and ancient gods rising from the deep. The bond between them is volatile—blazing with power, lust, and something far more dangerous: trust. In a world where love can burn kingdoms and fate is written in blood, Elira and Kaelen must decide what they’re willing to sacrifice—each other, or the world.
