Nova has spent centuries as Prince Thazin's plaything in the Seelie Court, enduring torment no soul should bear. Her only comfort lies in her mother's copper ring and fragments of tales about their lost people - the Court of Moons. When two unlikely saviors, Ajax the Exiled and Valen the giant, free her from bondage, Nova discovers a chance not just for freedom, but to reclaim her heritage.
Under the guidance of Ajax's dark magic and Valen's gentle strength, Nova begins to discover her own power. But freedom comes with a price. Together with the fierce lycan warrior Shanti and the hard-drinking vampire Alana, Nova must embark on a perilous journey into the untamed Feywilds to find sacred artifacts of her people.
Time is against them as they race through treacherous territories where ancient beasts lurk and wild magic runs unchecked. Nova must master combat skills under Shanti's harsh tutelage and unlock the secrets of enchanting from Ajax before facing the dangers that await. Yet the greatest challenge may be confronting the truth of who she really is - the last daughter of a fallen court, destined to either restore her people's legacy or let their history fade forever.
With each step deeper into the Feywilds, Nova uncovers more about her mother's sacrifice and her own destiny. Following the wisdom of Buwan, a Moon Goddess of the fae, she seeks not revenge but restoration - a chance to rebuild what was lost and create a home for her scattered people.
Shackled is a dark fantasy filled with magic, monsters, and the unbreakable bonds forged in the fires of survival. Follow Nova's journey from broken slave to powerful enchantress as she fights to reclaim her birthright and restore the light of the Moon Court.
