The Archfae's Bride

In a realm where magic is law and nobility masks rot, Marcelia Ravenswood — bard, healer, and daughter of a house bound to justice — finds herself accidentally engaged to Rayner, a fae exile with horns like branches and trauma buried deep beneath moonlit smiles. One accidental name exchange later, she’s swept into a conflict older than kingdoms and more dangerous than any spell.



Her stepbrother Julius, a reclusive scholar of magic, has unknowingly become the vessel for a sealed fae entity — last of the Ceaith-ysyr, an ancient race once vital to the stability of the Fae Wilds. Twisted by betrayal, the Ceaith-ysyr were nearly exterminated by the Magic Magistrate after a failed attempt to turn them into living weapons. Now unsealed, this Ceaith-ysyr hunger for justice — not for themselves, but for Julius, the one who freed them— threatens to ignite a war that could consume the mortal realm.



Now tangled in the lies of those who were meant to protect them, Marcelia and Rayner must race to find Julius before the Magistrate finds them all —and finishes what they started.



A story of love, loss, and legacies rewritten in blood, this is the beginning of a tale where even the broken can shift the balance between ruin and rebirth.
