The Arc's Trilogy: The Forgotten (Book 1) by Felicia Barnes at Inkitt

Summary

Eliana, Princess of Evindel, owes it to her Kingdom to end the ice storms by convincing their strongest alliance, Prince Aelric of Aerandale, to propose and unite through marriage. This is a forced union by The Red Dragon, a new God, that struck up a deal with Evindel's ancestors centuries ago to give the Evindel Kingdom power and wealth in exchange for blood sacrifices and offerings. Once Eliana marries Aelric, she can convince the entire province of Gaelthar that the old Gods are gone, and the only true God is The Mighty One, The Red Dragon. However, while courting Aelric, Eliana is soul-searching after coming of age. As she gets closer to Aelric, she can't help but feel an intense pull towards her personal guard, James. Although having any relations with the royal guard is forbidden, they both find it impossible to deny. Early on, she finds that her parents are keeping secrets from her. Little does she know, her parents aren't the only ones withholding information. Who else is keeping things from her? Who else is betraying her? Throughout the book, Eliana fights demons in her closet and shadows in her room, unravels secrets, meets numerous suitors, has constant nightmares, and, most of all, is tempted. She is finding herself while losing herself.

Introduction

Welp, here we are again. No promises. I might scrap this version all the same. This page will be updated as the word count increases. I don't have time tonight to upload every little detail on every character, but with time, I will make it happen.

Feel free to read Torn to gain some clues as to what's going on, but as soon as this book is finished, Torn will cease to exist.

This will be less explicit and have a much slower burn, which I'm sure some people will find great.

I will be scheduling chapters this time, so the first chapter of The Forgotten will begin on February 28th.

Here is what I have of my characters thus far (bear with me):
