Where Void Meets Ice: A Dark Romantasy Novella of Enemies to Lovers | Epic Fantasy of Young Adult Fiction | Dystopian Spicy Romance (The Void Book 1)

She is their captive. He is her last hope. In a world of glittering lies and dark magic, love is the most dangerous secret of all.

Ten years ago, the fae empire of Sylva conquered the kingdom of Aldoria, leaving its people scattered and its princess, Elara, a fugitive in her own land. Now, she leads a band of survivors, hiding a power that could be their salvation or their doom: an innate control over forbidden shadow magic.

But when the ruthless Sylvan general, Lord Kael, returns with a devastating ultimatum—relocation for her people or marriage to him—Elara is dragged into the heart of the enemy court. Trapped in a gilded cage, she must navigate the treacherous political intrigues of Eldoria, where every smile hides a dagger and alliances are as fleeting as whispers in the dark.

Forced into cynical “lessons of survival” by her captor, Elara discovers a magnetic and fragile connection with the enigmatic Kael. While he teaches her to survive his world, she secretly delves into forbidden texts, honing her powers. She soon learns her dark magic is not a curse, but a necessary balance to the Sylvan’s light-based power—a truth that could shatter the foundations of their empire.

When a violent "accident" orchestrated by a jealous rival forces Elara to reveal her abilities, Kael conceals her secret, deepening their dangerous bond. But betrayal lurks in the shadows, and a conspiracy far more sinister than courtly power plays begins to unravel. An ancient evil, the Shadow Blight, stirs from its prison, threatening to consume both kingdoms in a tide of corrupted magic.

Now, Elara and Kael are bound by an uneasy alliance. As forbidden passion ignites and rebellion brews, they must decide if they can trust each other with their lives—and their hearts. Their journey will take them through forbidden sanctums and toward a whispered prophecy that foretells a devastating choice: embrace a destiny that could unite their worlds, or unleash a power that will destroy everything they love.
