The Purple Thief (Book #1) - First 3 Chapters by GoldFantasy
4 parts Complete Mature
Formerly Titled: The Fairest - First 3 Chapters Are you Fair or Strange? Be careful which one you choose. A prophecy was given to the Realm of Valeera, but only one kingdom took heed of it and set forth a law that would divide the people into two groups. The Fair and the Strange. One group possesses a promise of peace while the other is doomed for eternity. Well, that's what the people believed... Born with purple eyes, 18-year-old Mageia Unknown knows one thing, if she's ever caught, she could be executed because of it. Being the leader of a group of Strange youths living on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Ardania, she makes it her duty to take care of her family, no matter the cost. But when an act of heroism goes wrong, she discovers her fate is entwined with a prophecy that may force her to sacrifice everything she loves and believes in. 18-year-old Grisonce Arlon is not the most respected prince in the kingdom. Despite his defect that taints the royal bloodline, he is urged to find a wife to be accepted by other Fairs. But his interests lie in something far greater. When his obsession with the Fairest Prophecy intervenes with the case of the one called the Purple Thief, it reveals a possible dark threat lurking within the palace involving a most hated rival. Will he be willing to sacrifice everything for the purple-eyed beauty even if it may be his life? Received an Honorable Mention Award from The BookFest Fall 2023 Contest.

(FINISHED WRITING, BEING REVISED!) An only child, by the name of Nathaniel, has a very unfortunate life. Unpopular, bullied, and outcasted by everyone at school; even his own parents didn't want him! He's miserable... At least that was until his eighteenth birthday where he has the most bizarre encounter. A break-in at his own home from an organization that holds a secret from the entire world! Now, he attempts to find his life's purpose, coming across many friends as well as enemies, many obstacles, great pain, deep love, and important life lessons. It's up to him to decide whether or not he's the one in control of his own life. !!!CAUTION!!! IF YOU ARE ONE TO READ BOOKS BY THE LAST CHAPTER TO SEE IF YOU ARE INTERESTED, CHAPTERS TOWARD THE END OF THIS BOOK CONTAIN HUGE SPOILERS THAT MAY RUIN OR ALTER THE DESIRED EXPERIENCE AND ENJOYMENT AND IF YOU STILL WISH TO READ THE LAST CHAPTER I SUGGEST CHAPTER 53! Info of my writing style and this book: ? This book is written from the first-person point of view. Everything he thinks about; everything you read, will be the exact moment of everything that's happening. When Nathaniel gets cut off and interrupted, his thoughts will be interrupted as well. ? I'll put seven periods to indicate a change in the scene; to show that time has passed since the last scene. ? Bolded names are important characters to Nathaniel and the story ? This book contains vulgar and sometimes erotic descriptive language. ? This book is targeted toward a young adult audience.
