Kings of Avalier - La série

Le Roi Dragon est à la recherche d’une épouse. Face à cette annonce, l’agitation gagne toutes les femmes de mon village. Le Roi enverra sa garde royale pour conduire les femmes en âge de procréer à son palais dans la Cité de Jade. La seule condition est que l’épouse ait en elle assez de magie pour engendrer un héritier. Je ne suis qu’une humaine avec une infime trace de magie de dragon. Je suis convaincue de ne pas être retenue. Cependant, étrangement, les détecteurs de magie m’ordonnent de me présenter au roi en tant que prétendante. Et c’est alors que je me préparais à me rendre à la Cité de Jade que ma mère m’a confié un secret effroyable. Un secret qui pourrait bien me valoir la mort... de la main du roi lui-même.

I never should have taken that loan but my aunt needed the meds and they were too expensive for me to afford by myself. Now I’ve been sold to slavery and the Nightfall Queen’s guards have found out I’m not entirely human. I guess I’m lucky they didn’t kill me. The next thing I know I’m transferred to the Elf King’s castle to find out that he has bought me. It will take me five years to pay off the debt but I get to be his personal assistant. Personal assistant to the king. That can’t be so bad, right? Wrong. Oh how wrong I was. His council has tasked me with finding him a wife before they will fund his war against the Nightfall Queen. That part should be easy, he’s rich, disgustingly handsome, and smart to boot. The problem? He’s rejecting every high born female I send his way. The more time we spend together, the more we realize I’m not just some half elf. There is a deep power that runs through my veins, one that makes me a target. His solution? Enter into a fake marriage with him so that he can get the council off his back and I can get some protection. That’s a great idea, so long as I don’t fall in love with him. Should be simple enough…

Lucien Thorne is the most vile monster in all of Thorngate. As Winter King, he rules our land with an iron fist and a cold, dead heart. And my father has just informed me that I am betrothed to marry him…. As the Princess of Fall, it is my duty to marry whatever suitor my father chooses for me, but Lucien is not someone I can fathom spending the rest of my life with. Not even for duty. When he arrives to negotiate my dowry, I break protocol and take matters into my own hands. But the more time I spend with this mysterious man, the more I wonder if the rumors about him are even true. As I get to know the real Lucien, I start to discover that there is a dark history in his family, one that explains his ruthless behavior. One I plan to expunge if I am ever to live out my life in the Winter Palace in peace. As much as I want to hate Lucien Thorne and everything he’s done to our realm… I cannot deny my heart.
