The Goddess Beneath The Silver Rose

For seventeen-year-old Luciana Aldrick, Cresent Roseville has always been home. Raised by the villagers after losing her mother at five, Luciana has lived a peaceful life, believing she is an ordinary girl with no magical abilities. But three days before her eighteenth birthday, strange dreams begin haunting her—a woman falling, two figures standing nearby, and a mysterious man in black rushing toward her as if she were the most precious person in the world. Luciana believes they are only dreams. They are memories. A thousand years ago, Luciana was Vaelithra, the powerful Goddess of the Tenth Divine Throne. She was a formidable warrior and mage, beloved by her childhood companion, Rudolf Craig. Beside them stood Claire Stewart, Vaelithra’s closest friend. But Claire’s jealousy slowly poisoned everything. Through lies, manipulation, and carefully fabricated tragedies, Claire turned Rudolf against Vaelithra until the man she loved became the one who killed her. Raizen Zeith, a feared and powerful god who had secretly loved Vaelithra for centuries, was away when the tragedy occurred. When he returned and found her dead, his grief turned into fury. He hunted Rudolf and Claire, only to be stopped and punished by the mysterious master of the Tenth Divine Throne. His power was sealed. His freedom was taken. And Raizen was imprisoned for a thousand years. Meanwhile, Vaelithra’s existence was erased from history. The world remembered only nine divine powers. The Tenth Goddess was forgotten. But Raizen never forgot. A thousand years later, he finally feels the soul he had waited centuries to find. Vaelithra has been reborn as Luciana. She remembers nothing of her past life, and Raizen refuses to force those memories upon her. To him, she is no longer merely the goddess he once loved—she is Luciana, the woman she has become. Yet the past refuses to remain buried. As Luciana leaves Cresent Roseville and begins exploring the world, ancient temples awaken, silver roses bloom, forgotten powers stir, and mysteries surrounding the lost Tenth Goddess begin to surface. Why was Vaelithra erased? Who wanted the world to forget her? Why does Raizen know the truth behind a history that no one else remembers? And what will happen when the world finally discovers that the goddess it erased has returned? Luciana thought she was beginning a journey to discover the world. Instead, she is unknowingly walking toward the truth of who she once was—and the secrets of the divine world that never truly forgot her. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: The Goddess Beneath The Silver Rose — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
