i've been busy writing a new novel, here's the main character anir :) he made a contract with a god to get luck manipulation powers, but in return he had to take on the soul of a dead man, who has his own unfulfilled contract. he hasn't been sleeping a lot, on account of how the other soul takes over his body at night.
Okay, but what are the odds that Anir, Alexi, and (now) Val have a club or support group where they meet up and groan about their respective Princes (Wrath, Envy and, Gluttony), being in love? Like they set up charcuterie boards, get glasses of wine (and blood), and just mindlessly bitch about how they make their jobs harder.
Think Val searching high and low for Gluttony, who avoids to get more 'quality time' with Adriana. Or Alexi waiting with a delegation that came to meet Envy, only Camilla had stoked his sin right before they arrived, and now they have to wait while he claims her on his throne. Loudly. Or Wrath pissing off his chefs because he kicks them out of the kitchen to cook with Emilia (amongst other things).
In Throne of the Fallen, Alexi had to convince Envy to go after Camilla, and I'm pretty sure Val finding out that Gluttony fell in love with Adriana is going to send her reeling (even though she's probably going to tell Gluttony not to be a baby about it and just talk to her). Anir probably had the same frustrations with Wrath, during the original trilogy, and before it, when Wrath fell in love with her for the first time.
They would also spilling the most piping hot tea in all of the underworld about what their princes are like behind closed doors, when they think no one is watching. I'm picturing them being shocked over the idea of Wrath cooking with Emilia at all, and giving her doe eyes while she treats his giant hellhounds like puppies (they totally like her more). Or Envy sitting down to paint with Camilla, and go on romantic picnics with Camilla.
Every time one of the princes gets engaged, they'd approach their burnt out second who seems ready to quit, and give them a time and place. If Emilia ever found out about it, she'd probably start her own club though, where the wives + best friends gather to discuss how difficult their princes were in the beginning (and maybe some side stories about how frustrating Emilia found Fauna and Anir until she finally asked him out).

Kingdom of The Feared by Kerri Maniscalco
SPOILERS, also excuse my language in advance if necessary 😁

Okay, it sounds like that spell Nonna had the girls do was taking memories away not just protecting them from the Wicked
Also, little cottage, ummmm is this in Northern Italy by chance? If it is my money is so on it being the First Witch or her daughter, but why?
Wicked are the seven brothers of hell obviously, but who are the Feared? Are they witch counterparts to the brothers? Are they the seven sisters? Or are they super evil witches?
They're not from their island, that's not all that surprising actually.
Are the witches not cursed at all? Is it the Wicked and the Feared who are cursed and the witches are somehow stuck in the middle?
Sofia stole the first book of spells...as in the same one Vittoria found...as in the same one Emilia then found...the same one she then stole from House Envy...the same one she then found out was not the First Witch's but the Crone's...who is a goddess...
WHAT. THE. FUCK. Talk about killing the moment. Things were just getting good and she gets ripped from reality? For fucks sake
Hot damn, go Emilia "And then dear sister, you'll meet the witch you forced me to become"
I’m sorry, WHAT?! Did their family know Vittoria wasn’t dead and let Emilia believe she was? Could they not tell her because of the curse?
Damn, Wrath could start the next ice age thinking Emilia’s in trouble 🥶🥶
Awwww, he so sweet ❤️❤️❤️
And then he lowers the BOOM! I’m sorry there’s a Blade of Ruination capable of killing him?! Can any of the other hexed objects kill him or is it just the one we have to worry about? Can it be destroyed?
😅😅😅 he loses his cool and everything is ice, she loses her cool and everything is fire. These two are so perfect for each other. I love that her fire is in the shape of flowers. Pretty, but deadly. And Wrath is unfazed by it, he just takes it in stride. ❤️❤️
🤣🤣🤣 poor Anir
🤣 of course Lust would catch them
I’m sorry, did he say hexed skull? Yes, he did indeed.
Well someone is on the hit list.
Okay, I’m confused. How has Wrath had Greed spying on Vittoria if we just found out she’s still alive? And does Greed know Rubies are her thing because of the time she spent working in his gambling hall?
Seriously Wrath? There’s no real evidence, but I guess he can’t chance being at war with Greed either.
That’s right Emilia 😝 Show them how much they should fear you.
Of course, wording is so key. Should have known better. 😉
I’m really curious about this plan Emilia.
Oh, oh this is good.
Wait, it almost sounds like Vesta wasn’t a demon 🤔 Is it possible she was a witch?
Oh for fucks sake. Not this again. 🤬
HOLY…FUCKING…SHIT…Out of all my theories I did not think that Emilia could be one of the Feared. But I was also thinking they would equal the Princes and there would be seven of them. Although that could still be true.
She has her own dagger, awwww🥰🥰🥰
Exactly how long has Wrath suspected she’s his wife.
Hold up. I thought the deal Greed made with what’s his face was so the werewolves would fight on the devils side. This does not look like that. This looks like the opposite is happening. Unless they don’t see Wrath as being the devil???
If he fucking dies right now I’m going to scream. 🤬🤬🤬
Oh good it’s not the Blade of Ruination.
Oh my god I just realized that too, if she's a goddess and immortal why did Wrath have to save her? Or is she not because of the curse? Or because she's a reincarnation and not the true goddess of Fury? Envy makes it sound like there’s still more to her we don’t know and I’m obliged to believe him at this point
Envy: “he is her fate, as she is his. As above, so below. They are the balance. Light and dark. One fallen from above, and one created in the underworld below. You cannot win against love. It is a force more powerful, more terrifying, than any magic you possess or fear you inspire. Even now.” Careful envy I might start believing you have a long lost love, or you're super envious of Wrath and Emilia, or you actually like Emilia.
House? What House? She has a temple on the shifting isles, but is there a House too? Is it Northern Italy?
House Vengeance, and no one has been able to enter the circle. 🤔 Oh sure, just rip out her mortal heart that SOMEONE ELSE PUT IN HER Okay, mortal heart means mortal death, meaning she really would have died if Wrath hadn't saved her
Awwww, Envy 🥰 🤣 and he's back
I'm having a hard time believing Nonna purposefully did this to them. I want there to be an explanation, but I also can't help but think that it's true
Damn girl!
Oh for fucks sake! Seriously?! A test? You guys gave her a fucking loyalty test? Wrath has every right to be pissed. That could have ended so much worse than it did.
Vesta had to be looking for a way to get to the Shadow Realm. I think she's a werewolf somehow she was being masked or something. IDK
Damn it Vittoria! NOOOOOOO NONNA! How could you!?
Okay so Pride did have a wife and it was the First Witchs daughter. I'm thinking she cursed Wrath because he wouldn't help her get her daughter away from Pride
Did the witches take her in that moment or was that the curse that took her away and the witches took advantage of the situation?
What was taken from Emilia that was so precious? Is she referring to Wrath?
That sounds about right, but I am curious why they didn't mingle?
So Vittoria was behind the murdered girls, and it sounds like they did not come back like she did. That still leaves the question of why/how that equals Wrath looking for a bride for Pride.
Will the curse be lifted once they sign the paperwork? Or does he have to give her his heart to lift his curse? I think we're going to find that she already has it
Go Emilia! 🥳 You tell her, she can't push you around.
I agree, I don't believe Vesta is dead. I just had a thought but I don't think it will work. I thought maybe Vesta was Pride's wife but she died so that doesn't work unless…Oh My God. What if…Pride's wife had her heart ripped out too. What if it was also put into another body or brought back or whatever it is Vittoria did? What if Vesta IS her? It would explain why Greed wanted her, why she started asking questions about the portal and scenting...🤔🤔🤔
"You are my match in every way. Anything that's mine belongs to you. Never forget that." Awwwwww🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️ does that include his heart?
"Always have an arrow nocked and ready to fire if you invite an enemy in." Well damn! Me thinks things are about to get serious.
Six years, and six months? That's it? What a bunch of bloodsuckers. That plan had so many holes. They really thought it would be that easy to trick Wrath and kidnap Emilia? Wow, just wow.
Of course Lust finds them 🤣
Awwww, and here I was thinking he literally locked his heart away and we find out he's been taking a potion to keep himself from feeling too strongly. And oh my god if this is him not feeling 100% of his feelings I can't wait to see what they do when the curse is broken 🔥
Intersting I really kind of despise Domenico Of course their house is glamoured. Wait it's a temple? Wait they didn't live in Sicily? They lived on the Shifting Isles? Wait so when they went to Northern Italy where were they really going?
HAS HE KNOWN THE WHOLE FUCKING TIME?! The whole waking up with heightened senses reminds me of when Bella wakes up as a new vampire in Breaking Dawn - don’t judge me
Awww she used to sneak over to Gluttony’s and take the horse for rides. I’m really gonna need a prequel where we see this whole thing go down. ‘Cause I need to see her friendship with Gluttony and Envy develop. I think it would be so cute. Not to mention watching Wrath find out about the plan and not caring because he loves her ❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰
Coronation 🥳🥳🥳
Vows, FINALLY 🥳🥳🥳
Awwwww he really took the ‘what’s mine is yours’ to heart. I was wondering if that might happen since he said the whole ‘Anything that’s mine belongs to you’ bit earlier 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I really enjoyed this book. I think the build to the climax was a little lackluster, and her sister not being evil was a bit of a let down. Especially because of everything she did. Taking her revenge and not just telling Emilia what was going on. I know some of that was the curse, but still. I also feel like throwing the whole Vesta thing in there was kind of random. I feel like the only purpose it served was to give Greed an excuse to want her blood. Though it also almost seems like it’s a setup for another book, following other characters. 🤔🤔🤔
Anyway, on to Blessed Dragons!
Just a fyi y’all I finished kotc yesterday. I shut off all social media to concentrate.
Do I love Wrath more than already do? Yes. He is perfection
Will I die for Fauna and Anir ? Absolutely
Glutton is fun
Vittoria and Antonio can choke
And if the next book doesn’t start off with smut then what’s the point???
Kerri girl throw me a bone here
another commission! this time for @auyamx of their snakey character, anir, and of @aeori-o's lelia (in a red panda form). man this was a DELIGHT, i love when fun characters make for fun interactions (also i specifically had such a blast working on anir's scaley coils).
