The Thirteenth

by N.V. Prince

Leon is the heir to the Leo's throne, doing everything in his power to keep up the golden facade. However, there's a power inside of him that's been awakened, a power that he's not supposed to have because it's forbidden. The Glitch.
He can't suppress it any longer, it feels like he’s being burned alive.
So why not let it free?

About The Book

The Stars have twelve seats, but the thirteenth is the only one that matters.

To the world, Leon is the Golden Heir. To Epsilon University, he is the future of the Leo bloodline. But Leon has a secret: his fire is failing. Behind the borrowed artifacts and family pride, he’s a fraud waiting for his reputation to flicker out.

The only person who sees the cracks? Tara. A Taurus of tempered steel, she has been Leon’s anchor since childhood. She’s his sanctuary, his best friend—and the girl who has been pining for him from the sidelines for years. She would rather love him in silence than lose him to the pressure of his legacy.

But the heat building in Leon’s spine isn’t weakness—it’s a warning.

When the weight of the Twelve finally breaks him, Leon’s fire evolves into something forbidden, dangerous, and scrubbed from history: Ophiuchus. The Glitch.

Now, Leon must choose: suffocate in a circle meant to burn him alive or embrace the power the world is terrified to acknowledge.

Storytelling is all about the connection you make. Whether it's the rush of a high-stakes power play or the quiet ache of a romance trope, I write to ensure that every reader finds a character they can call their own. My goal is simple: create a sense of escape where readers can feel loved, seen, and thoroughly entertained. I try to make it so that each book brings a new sensation, allowing you to step into a world where you are never truly invisible.
