Somber Prince
Marina Simcoe

My cousin disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Thirteen years later, the shadows from another world cross into ours once again, and this time they snatch me, along with my sister and my best friend.
Night reigns in the black desert of the Alveari Kingdom. Its people are unable to experience happiness on their own, and I am to become a Joy Vessel for their Crown Prince, even as I don’t feel joyful about such a future.
As I spend more time with Prince Rha, however, I begin to understand how humans brighten the gloomy existence of his people and how much I mean to him. I am his treasure, his most prized possession, and a prisoner in his oasis palace.
When I get a chance to escape my somber prince, we’re both put to the test.
Can I leave him, knowing that if I stay, the people I love will remain trapped here
forever?
Can he set me free if it means he’d never see me again?
