Kendra and Seth are the royalty of Fablehaven. Unfortunately, it just so happens that they become refugees. What better place to lodge than Terrabelle, a neighboring kingdom?
With the suspicion of sorcery following the siblings, it's going to be difficult to navigate this new kingdom. Especially with King Dalgorel's children getting involved...
Let’s just say, Garreth Dalgorel isn’t at all what Kendra expected.

Chapter One
There was value in staying in the shadows. Seth knew this. Gleaning information and untangling motives was much easier when your subject didn’t notice you.
Rain slipped off his itchy coat as the city’s walls slowly solidified in the distance.
People always asked why he didn’t challenge his sister for the heir title. What a dumb question. First off, he loved his sister. Second of all, why would he ever want to relinquish his freedom and spend his life languishing in castle walls?

Moonlight glinted off his sister’s golden diadem as she removed her hood, letting raindrops seep into her hair. Seth surveyed the castle walls barring their entry. A lone sentry peeked through the gate tower.
The sentry had to shout over the thunder of the storm. “Who goes there?”
“Princess Kendra Sorenson, heir apparent of Fablehaven. Four of my associates join me.” Unlike the shouty sentry, her voice commanded the heavens without straining. “I request an audience with your king.”
Silence mingled with thunder as the sentry ducked out of view. Raindrops slipped off Seth’s hood as his horse shuffled in its step. “Steady, Noble.”
The sentry reappeared. “Where is King Stanley, Princess?”
“My grandfather’s whereabouts are not the concern of a sentry. Send for your king. It is urgent.”
