Melenially

⚠️This is a sequel to an ongoing book (Nicholas Vials; The Case Of Michael Vials)⚠️

Baldwin James Alburn, the only living heir to the Alburn family, is the definition of upright and moral. It's just that corruption is only a fire fueled by events that erode one's conscience. 

From his sacrifices for Emberline and his efforts to better the world and the duty he holds to uphold the Alburn name. There still remains a yearning for revenge. A bloodthirsty, scolding, cold desire. 

Nicholas Vials, on the other hand, is the definition of deceit and opportunism. His actions suggest that he doesn't plan on improving his repute. However, he has taken on a path of great peril. To take away the authority from those trying to kill him.

And to find Emberline. 

Yet, neither Baldwin nor Nicholas wield control over their schemes. Like grains of sand in a desert, time slips through their fingers, leaving them grasping for control in a world where nothing is as it seems. Their only hope lies in uncovering the undisclosed—a secret that may hold the key to their salvation or seal their fate forever.

Or perhaps it is hidden in plain sight

Unkept Promises

<p>On Tuesday, Emberline arrived in Odonbury after a two-day journey that had proven to be extremely tiresome. The path she had taken was filled with rough and rocky roads, having to cross challenging bridges along the way. As she traveled, Emberline began to feel regret about her decision due to the difficult conditions she was facing. Her heart sank at the thought of her being alone for this long, although accompanied by her Father, she felt immediately homesick.</p>

<p>When finally, she reached her destination and disembarked from the carriage, Odonbury was known for having gloomy weather at all times. Although in Edmundale, the spring season had started, and flowers had bloomed, it was not the case for Odonbury, where the water still hadn't seeped into the soil.</p>
