A Darkness Falls Novel
She remembers nothing of crowns or castles - only stone walls, pickaxe echoes, and the seven men who call themselves her family.
They rescued her.
They raised her.
They drugged her so she would never question why.
Blanche's life is routine, quiet, small... until an explosion fractures the lie she's been living. Memories flicker like broken glass: a throne drenched in sunlight, a voice calling a name she no longer knows, white feathers drifting through air that was once hers to command.
And the whisper in her veins answers back.
As the truth claws its way to the surface, the men who sheltered her tighten their grip. Kindness becomes control. Concern becomes surveillance. Every dose of medicine tastes more like obedience. Every smile hides a calculation.
They didn't save her.
They stole her.
And she is done forgetting.
When the forest begins to stir - crows watching, creatures gathering - Blanche feels something ancient waking inside her. A power she once wielded without fear. A kingdom that once bowed. A life stolen, rewritten, caged in stone.
She will not stay quiet.
She will not stay small.
She will remember - and she will reclaim every piece of the girl they buried.
Before she becomes the queen they should have feared from the beginning.
