Her Amethyst Eyes His Black Scales: Sometimes True Love Is Forbidden
Ardyn was offered to the Serpent Lord as a sacrifice — but she did not expect to be seen.
When she meets Varric, ruler of Serpentia, something ancient and impossible awakens between them. He does not claim her. He waits. And in that moment, an unexpected love begins to bloom.
Varric is willing to accept what fate offers. Ardyn is not. Haunted by doubt and determined to stand as his equal, she refuses to believe love alone is enough.
As Ardyn awakens a rare and evolving magic tied to her very soul, she and Varric form a powerful bond that transcends distance, form, and fear. But for Ardyn, love without equality feels like a lie — and she sets out on a dangerous journey to gain power, longevity, and immortality on her own terms.
Her path leads her across magical realms in search of ancient magic - The Life Way. Every choice reshapes not only her future, but the nature of their bond itself.
This is a story of chosen love, shared power, and a woman who refuses to remain small — even for the one she loves.
