Bride of the Goblin Lord

The Story

Liriel, the Moon Elf princess, wakes at the betrothal temple after a past life of betrayal and death. She watches Elara steal the golden oath intended for her paladin betrothed, Kaelen. Heartbroken, she signs the black oath of Azriel, the cursed Goblin Lord. Elara burns Liriel’s relics, kills her spirit bird Snow, and frames her for crimes. Kaelen publicly flogs Liriel while her father moves to strip her title. Near death, Azriel saves her, having relied on her moonlight power to ease his thousand-year curse. They forge a protection pact. Cold to everyone else, Azriel cherishes only Liriel. When the Elf coalition and Elara launch an attack, Azriel sacrifices his demon core and binds their lives forever. Together, they expose Elara’s plots. Elara is left disfigured, and Kaelen is doomed to regret his actions. Liriel rises as Queen of the Abyss, loved eternally by Azriel.
