A story about a place that neither exists in maps or history books, this place was called Athame.

"The root of every fear is the unknown, yet how can one fear what they cannot grasp? Tch... how misleading." His voice, deep and rough, sent an involuntary shiver through her as he closed the distance between them with deliberate steps, his presence suffocating in its intensity.
With a slow, predatory grace, his fingers brushed along her jaw, settling on a strand of her scarlet hair, his touch deceptively tender. "Knowing me will matter little," he whispered darkly, his breath warm against her skin. "For even in the shadows of uncertainty, you will come to fear... and desire me all the same."

Aricia, born with extraordinary abilities in a world that fears anything out of the ordinary, was destined for a marriage alliance to secure peace between kingdoms.
But on the day of her engagement, her entire family is slaughtered—by the very family she was meant to marry into.
Grief-stricken and consumed by vengeance, Aricia swore to destroy those who betrayed her. She would wield the very power they had feared against them, seeking justice with no mercy. After years on the run, she found shelter within an elemental clan, hiding her abilities and keeping to the shadows.
But her carefully constructed peace shattered in a single moment. A burning touch, a chance encounter with his haunting gray eyes—an unknown force within her stirred, threatening to unravel her carefully guarded secrets and the fragile balance of magic, madness, and vengeance she had built....
Ok, let me just tell you guys that this is the review you've all been looking for. Though the book is still in its early chapters it's not the first time I've read it. The author used to write this book like a year ago but suddenly stopped. At first i was really furious and frustrated but after reading the disclaimer it said the book was signed with a company so probably that was why it was on hold (that's how great it is) Am i exaggerating, i really don't know but I'm going to be completely honest with my review. One put off in the book is the broadness of the world building but the way it all relates to each other tells how great the author is. i had deleted the app few months ago and just recently found out the book was continued. But that was not the exact reason i downloaded it again. Another thing is that it's a bit slow but the interactions between the male lead and the female lead is so original and not forced at all. He's obviously very arrogant but so is she, in a mild way so there is always a clash of opinion and character. The Mc is not cliche and a goody two shoes but she's also very polite with the bestest friend, Freya, anyone could ask for. Now the World background, i can't say much to prevent spoilers but the first sentence in the synopsis tells a lot about it generally. It's not some part of the world but a whole world on its own with the fusion of cultures that dates back to centuries ago. Its giving Game Of Thrones vibes. Like the Ysadoran mages are like from early Persia and the rest have their own roots, language and culture. You might occasionally catch a glimpse of knights training, i won't say much but the author's not stupid. The story description.. my days! it's like you're transported to a whole new world entirely. That I would love to give honors for cause you can really see the effort put into the descriptions to make it more realistic or like you're watching a movie. And the chapters are always long enough to keep you intrigued. The Characters are easily loveable from the first encounter and the depth with the characters can make you go crazy. I won't say much further but this is definitely a good read and plus you would need to exercise patience.
It's been great so far. Nice character design and i LOVE the tension and the humor. I'll give a better review after a hundred chapters
I found this book on Facebook and absolutely loved it. I wanted to read moreee I even downloaded the app because of it. I can't wait to finish it
I want to review this book because I see a lot of potential in it. It was quite fascinating to find that this story was developed by a fifteen year old, while there are minor inconveniences, Vengeance Through Passion is a nice read. I like the idea of the story line, the story development is not too fast nor slow.. nicely paced. Character design is flawless, most of the characters are depicted in the most unique way which would give credit for. The world background is too broad, it's confusing and lacks any true necessity, it stretches areas that are meant to leave readers in awe making it tiring.
I actually thought the warning in the disclaimer was subtle but the description is eye wrenching. I skipped most of it, the story is good but the author needs to do something about the chapters. It would discourage readers... the story line is superb and the characters are refreshing
I want moreeee. The updating schedule sucks but overall not a bad read. I love Vincent..
While I would love to give this a solid five star, the updating schedule is a bit off but apart from that the story is actually very readable. But one thing I love the most is the believable and relatable characters. I'm obsessed with the main characters and the humor is top notch. Overall, a very nice read. Something makes you lose track of time.
I am absolutely captivated by this book! I first discovered it on Facebook, and when I found out it was also available on Webnovel, I couldn't wait to dive in. The characters are so well-crafted, and Freya is definitely my favorite. The author has created an incredible plot, and I’m excited to see where the story leads. Vengeance through Passion is definitely a must-read!
This is the name of the fan page recently created for this book, Vengeance Through Passion. Let's help the author of this book boost the views on this platform. I'll be posting pictures and other photos in relation to the magnificent and detailed descriptions of this book. One thing I love about this book and our author is the way everything just comes together. I love this book and i know you will. It's a slow burn so make a final judgement only after chapter thirty. Follow our author on Facebook @Angel writes and also the playlist for the book is crazy. There's a very very slim chance you might not like the book but you would love the playlist with over seven listening hours. One more thing. I love love Freya and *Richard* PS. They aren't the main characters. The MC's are way better.
This is a rare gem on Webnovel. I don't understand why there is so much hate on the descriptions. it allows for creative imagination. Definitely worth my coins
