THE THRONE OF THORNS

Sample · Introduction

     They say "fate never makes a mistake"But what happens when it binds two people who were never meant to meet? Two people the world forbade for each other ,but the heart never learned to obey.Some love stories are written in flowers. Theirs was written in blood, tears, betrayal, war, and a hatred that never learned how to forgive.      She grew up in a place where poverty doesn't just take your money, it takes your right to dream. Where cruelty wore a uniform and called itself the law, and injustice ruled over everything like it was born to. Life didn't break her slowly — it came for her all at once, a flood of cruelty that swept away every last piece of joy and burned her heart down to ash.And out of those ashes rose a vow, not just revenge, a reckoning.         She would tear down the whole rotten system and build something true in its place, a country ruled by truth stronger than power, even if the fire she lit consumed her first.A world full of different people, somewhere in that same world, on the other side of everything, a name moved through rooms she'd never enter, spoken only in whispers.

Where money buys conscience, and secrets kill people. And here, love isn't soft; it has teeth.Who is that man who is protecting her? Why is he protecting her?
