Bride of the Abyss

The Story

Elara chooses the hand of a scarred creature her kingdom fears, defying her father’s command for arrows and her sister’s locked cage. The monster offers her an escape, yet she marries him anyway. When a spear intended for her husband strikes her instead, nine chains shatter. Her groom is Nerion, the god of the abyss, and the ocean now kneels before its queen. A beautiful face cannot undo a lie, however. Elara fights to save the mother her family buried alive. Stolen sea hearts pull both worlds toward war. A god seeks her vengeance, while the kingdom demands another sacrifice. The bride has other plans.
