Telling: the bastard queen

Alla’s mother placed the stone on the back of her neck and through whatever witchcraft it was, it burned her flesh. She had the mark. Born to rule, she was now doomed to be queen. But what queen could have ever been a trained killer? What queen could cross the bridge between life and death as easily as the ghosts that hid her from her past?

The underworld is no place for the living but they are there, and that changes everything. Now, there’s a price to pay, Death demands it…

Alla is no stranger to the fires of myth, legend, and lies. Her life has fanned the flames and where there’s smoke, blood will run black.
