The Serpent Prince’s Heart
Destinies Entwined in Shadows – Book Two
By Everett Vale
🔥 Before there was a war for the Rose… there was a cursed prince, a broken kingdom, and a truth too dangerous to be remembered.
He was meant to be erased.
She was never meant to find him.
But the shadows never forget their own.
When a strange, uncurable illness begins spreading across the land—marking victims as if chosen by something unseen—healer Aelina risks everything to seek out the only name whispered in fear and prophecy: Prince Dorian.
Cursed by blood.
Forgotten by his people.
The heir no kingdom wanted.
But the sickness is no plague.
It is a calling.
And it has already begun to wake what was never meant to rise again.
This is not the next chapter.
It’s the beginning of everything.
Dive into the dark, emotional, and beautifully twisted origins of the Destinies Entwined in Shadows saga. Before heroes were named and destinies were chosen, there was a choice made in silence. A heart that refused to die. And a curse that waited in the dark.
💀 What’s inside:
A brooding, exiled prince with golden eyes and a soul wrapped in prophecy
A strong-willed healer with nothing left to lose
Ancient gods, forbidden magic, and the haunting pull of fate
A slow-burn romance set against a backdrop of betrayal, ruin, and destiny
Unfolding truths that reframe everything you thought you knew
🖤 If you’ve ever craved a story that wraps around your ribs and won’t let go…
If you live for atmospheric fantasy, unraveling secrets, and characters you’d burn the world for—this is the book you’ve been waiting for.
Start here. Or don’t start at all.
Because this story changes everything.
