The Otacian Chronicles is a Dark Romantasy that will progressively get darker as the series continues. Please be mindful of the content warnings. Lena Daelyra has always lived in fear, as do most Mages in Tovagoth. Mages are discriminated against, hunted for sport, and have no laws that provide them protection. She has kept to herself her entire life, even after she and her mother found a permanent residence in the kingdom of Otacia. That is until she meets Quill Callon, a handsome resident of the Inner Ring, who agrees to train her in weaponry—a safe way of defending herself. As her feelings for Quill develop, she is taunted by the reminder that she can never show her true self, show what she really is. Not even to him. Silas La’Rune, Crown Prince of Otacia, has been kept inside the castle walls since he was five years old, since the kidnapping and murder of his younger sister, the Princess. He hasn’t known freedom. Hasn’t even seen his kingdom, except from the castle windows. It isn’t until the Queen allows him one day outside the walls that he sees Otacia for himself. One day that changes everything. When something devastating separates Lena from the man she grows to love, things are not the same when they find each other five years later. Not at all. And when Lena and Silas’s story finally becomes intertwined, it is clear the fate of Magekind rests on both of their shoulders. less

Set during the 43 unaccounted days at the heart of The Sins of Silas, this pivotal installment returns to the Valley of Awakening, a realm that reveals not only truth, but desire. Trapped in isolation and uncertainty, Merrick and Erabella are forced to rely on each other to survive. What begins as cautious cooperation soon unravels into something more profound: a forbidden tension born from proximity and the unspoken ache of everything they’ve lost. As the days go on, cracks form in the armor they’ve both worn too long, and with every trial, the carefully drawn lines between them begin to blur. Through traumatic flashbacks, fragments of their pasts begin to surface. As truths are revealed and walls crumble, the bond between them grows–not just physical, but soul-deep. And when the final page brings us back to the moment of betrayal, now seen through Erabella’s eyes, everything makes sense. Because love and survival rarely walk the same path, and sometimes, choosing one means damning the other. less
