Author Description

**This is a 10k word SHORT STORY prequel that has a massive cliffhanger. It is for CoraLee June’s upcoming Bloody Royals trilogy.** I’ve been in love with Prince Augustus for as long as I can remember, but he keeps pushing me away, into the arms of another… Atticus is a dangerous flirt; he could steal my heart if I’d let him. Leo, my fierce protector, speaks to me on a soul-deep level, unlike any I've ever known. All three of them hint at something more, but they aren’t the only ones staking a claim on my body. There’s evil stalking in the shadows of the castle, and he wants me, too. I’ll fight for my freedom and flee if I have to, but it'll require leaving parts of my heart behind. I just have to hope that if it comes to that, one day, fate will bring us back together. **Warning this book contains scenes and references of abuse/assault that some readers may find triggering.
