A Liar‘s Twisted Tongue

Her magic is a curse. His alliance is a gamble. Together, they could either save the world-or destroy it. Desdemona Althenia has always hidden in the shadows, concealing the deadly magic that could kill her if it‘s ever unleashed. Born into the lowest ranks of society, she‘s survived by her wits and her willingness to deceive. But when a chance encounter forces her into the prestigious-and perilous-Visnatus Academy, her lies begin to unravel. Lucian Aibek, the ruthless prince and heir to the throne, is driven by a burning desire for revenge against the family that has kept him under their thumb. Desdemona‘s untamed power could be the key to his freedom-if he can manipulate her to his advantage. But as their fates become entangled, the line between ally and enemy blurs, and they must navigate a deadly game where trust is a luxury neither can afford. As an ancient war stirs in the shadows, threatening to engulf their world, Desdemona and Lucian must decide whether to fight their growing connection-or harness it to conquer the darkness. But in a world built on lies, can the truth really set them free, or will it be their undoing? In this gripping dark fantasy, where every choice has a cost and every alliance is forged in blood, power is not just a weapon-it‘s a curse.
