House of Vampires and Flame (Shades of Ruin and Magic #1)

by Meg Xuemei X

“An ancient oracle predicted the chosen one born of powerful fated mates will bring back the wild magic of old to all five kingdoms,” America said, flipping her red hair over her shoulder. “One of the prince heirs is destined to find his powerful fated mate, give birth to the chosen, fulfill the prophecy, and be anointed the High King of Mist of Cinder.”

“you should know that history is never accurate, since the winners wrote it, and they didn’t become queens and kings because they were nice. They slaughtered everyone who stood in their way and had different opinions.”

“When you stare at the darkness, it stares back,”

“Magic fades; Mist reveals, and Ruin comes. The chosen one—the cursed and the blessed—comes before him to bring tides. She’s the darkness in light and light in massive darkness. Find the buried living flame and hope kindles. Turn the wheels of the Fates and the vicious cycle stops. Time is running out. Beware of the hanged. Join the Brides Selection and be the BRIDE!”
