Veils of Belevere · Book One · The Prisoner of Valir
In the kingdom of Valir, magic is a female elf's inheritance — and her curse.
Once a year, beneath a blood-red moon, every female elf who comes of age is led to a ritual older than memory: the Skuldar. The gifts bestowed upon them by the Goddess Siriana are taken from them and offered to the God Oaror. They are never returned. What is left behind is silence, veiled faces, and a court that calls this balance.
Evelina has spent her life fighting from the shadows. She is one of the Resistance's most fearless warriors — a reckless blade with a strategist's mind, disciplined enough to stay alive.
She doesn't remember her own Skuldar.
She tells herself that's grief. Not a warning.
When a doomed attack on the ritual throws her into the path of a regime guard who shouldn't be able to do the things he does — who fights like he was born for war, and looks at her as though he already knows her — Evelina finds herself bound to a man who isn't what he claims to be.
Every hour near him is a risk she can't afford.
Every hour near him makes walking away harder.
But Valir's rulers didn't build their empire on cruelty alone.
They built it on secrets.
Evelina is about to discover that, in her life, very little is what it seems — and that the truth beneath Valir's crown is far more dangerous than she ever imagined.
The closer she comes to the truth, the harder they will fight to bury her with it.
Freedom has a price.
So does the sun.
