“We are the divine violence.”

In the fantasy kingdom of Eldom, terror has struck. The royal family has been the target of a series of attempted and successful assassinations. Crown Prince Amir has been killed in cold blood by the group known as ECL; Eldom’s Common Liberators. Now, the children of the crown have come back to fight for their lives. As warriors. Royal Warriors. 5 of them, all still shaken from the death of their elder brother. For the ECL assassins, the death of the Crown Prince was a celebrated success. Now, they must take on the Royal Warriors to finally free their kingdom from the hands of the current royal family, the Eriksons.

The Powers. Otherwise known as the highborns are the people born with special abilities. The Powers are staples of the upper class, born into luxury and prestige. If a Power was born among the lesserborns, they’d be taken, and promptly raised and trained by the upper class, never to return to their old lives or families. The Crown believe they can find all of the Lesser Powers, but some slip right through their fingers.

<Main Characters>

“Haven’t you taken enough from me?”

Aliyah Erickson, the new heir to the throne of Eldom, is an 18-year-old prodigy. She has the smarts of a scholar and the strength of a knight. Aliyah was the closest to her elder brother, and the one most devastated from his loss. She always thought she would be her brother’s guard, his knight, his protector. Now, Aliyah has to practically become her brother, and deal with assassination attempts on her and her family.

“Prepare to burn down with me.”

Dominique Blair, the head of the ECL, is a 19-year-old on the path of revenge and liberty. She always gets what she wants and she is quite the prosperous manipulator. Dominique is a protective, but deadly person, who holds those she cares about close to her. If anyone even thought about hurting someone she cares about, they’d be dead in minutes.

Blurb:

"Clever Red, I'll give you that." Delta scoops up the tiny reaper into his arms and starts down the sidewalk away from the sirens and automated fire prevention drones. The rain fell and clutched to Red's cloak rolling down and off the fabric to the ground or through Delta as he walked.

"Delta?" He looked down at the sound of his name to show that his attention was given.

"Why can AI touch me?" Delta's grip tightened slightly at the question.

"I'm not sure Red, maybe..." He paused briefly to look up at the heavily clouded sky.

"Maybe it isn't so much AI can touch you Red, more..." Looking down the indicator for his partners' vital signs read unconscious, he smiled and kept pace in the rain changing his appearance to seem wet as he carried Zeto back to the safe house.

I know y’all Lost

Pretend to be the best

Ashamed and scared as hell

Running around till death

Sit with your family and friends

Settle down with somebody else

Who ashamed and scared as hell

The Red Assassin, red because of the blood on her hands, squints one eye. The King continues to talk to his officials, oblivious to the fact that he was being targeted, oblivious to the fact that he would never kiss the heads of his sons again. Her finger shakes on the trigger- this job was becoming a pain. She hated tearing families apart, but she had to do what she had to do if she wanted her family to stay together, it was a small price to pay.

One of the official ladies screams, blood splattering on her dress. The guards run over, shouting commands to one another.

The king is dead, the king is dead, the king is dead.

The Queen kneels over her dead husband, sobbing into his chest. A red halo has started to form around his head.

The king is dead, the king is dead, the king is dead.

Antero, the king's sorcerer, walks over to the devastated queen and the dead king. His staff makes a thud on the ground with each step.

“An Assassin,” he says, eyeing the hole in his temple from where the bullet had entered. The girl watches from her hiding spot up high, watching as the dwarfs take away the king, and smiles.

The job was done.

An 'incident' during a mission attracts the attention of Adrik Smirnov, the most feared Mafia Boss in Russia. Being granted full-immunity, Nyx Hart is sent on an undercover mission as a college student to bring back the Mafia's runaway son. But by trying to do so, she ends up fighting the most unforeseen enemy... Her heart.

But will her growing feelings for him be stronger than her impulse to kill?

Yorré Barren was born into an endless war in a world that feared her(or, rather, feared her warlord of a father). After years of training, she and her brother, Axel, are sent on a mission. Little does she know, opposing forces beyond her control plot to take advantage of this opportunity, tasked to hunt down and kill. What will happen when Yorré is split from the group in a panic? Who will she meet? What will she learn?

In the largest virtual reality game in history, Mark was a king. His team? Unstoppable. They were heroes even among other pros.

But the game changed. The government—for their own political gains—made a mess of everything Team Black Moon worked so hard to perfect. Ten years of their lives were spent playing Ashes of God. Still, Mark and his friends found themselves obsolete—forgotten.

Then time itself forgot. Mark wakes up, 10 years ago.

He’s never met his lover. He’s never played Ashes of God. Mark’s friends don’t even know his face. But he’ll find them. With his knowledge and skills, they’ll rise higher than ever. Mark will not be forgotten.

This time, they’ll be the ones who change the game.

PS: this synopsis has been made by S.D. Mills, please do check out his works.

The prince does not ask for his crown. The damsel does not need to be rescued. The king does not rule from his throne. The princess does not want a prince charming. The pirate does not enjoy his plunder. The assassin does not kill out of bloodlust.

Seek neither a crown nor a war, for Captain Kilyan knows not what he is in for.

Yes, this story will eventually return, hopefully by the end of 2019. However, it is not the same as it was before. I have changed names and certain details because I want this story to be as strong as I possibly can make it. If you've read an earlier version, I hope you think this one improves upon the last greatly. If you're new to this story, welcome. I hope I do not disappoint.

The day I joined the was the worst best decision I ever made. Every since that day, I've never been the same.
