Fight for the Fae
The Mirrored Prophecy 2
Chapter One (Sneak Peek)
~Lina~
Earlier that day…

She will lose a love, gain a love, bear love and sacrifice for love. What does that mean? The Seer’s words ring through my mind. My grandmother arranged a meeting with Epan, the Highest Druid Priest and one of his Seers, Yasmin, to discuss my future that she
has foretold. A lot has been going on in the last few weeks. 

It’s not every day that you learn that your fate is part of a mirrored prophecy that will determine the fate of the world.  Your first child will play a part in either destroying the world or saving it. That’s a lot for anyone to take in, but I have no choice but to accept my fate. I refuse to believe that I will play a part of destroying the human realm. Earth is as much my home as Faery is. Half of my childhood was spent here. My mother, Loredana Văduva, was a human Witch who died when I was fifteen years old in a Demon attack. Both sides of the family made sure that my brother Keegan and I spent time with my mother’s side of the family. My father Vamir Waldmar never denied my Witch side even though he is a full Fae. He is the Prince of the Light Fae to be exact, the future heir to the throne. 

The marriage between my parents was arranged to create a treaty between the Witches and the Fae. Both sides have honored this agreement since my parents exchanged their nuptials. In the past two years, supernaturals have gone missing and the Witches and Fae have been working together. Recently, they have teamed up with the Shifters and the Vampires. We were able to trace the disappearances to the current leader of the Underworld and King of the Demons, Melomouzor. Melomouzor was exiled to the Underworld over a millennium ago because he was trying to develop a super Demon and take over the human realm. 
Ten supernaturals, known as the Ancients, played a part in banishing him to the Underworld as a way to prevent him from conquering the human realm. He is on a mission to complete what he started and he needs my blood to help him cross over to the human realm. Any other day I would tell him to fuck himself, but he’s found a way to start bringing destruction to Earth. He’s had help bringing his Demons to the realm and kidnapping supernaturals. 

We don’t know if the victims are still alive. We have no clue except that he must have been experimenting on the supernaturals and Demons. There was a large Demon attack where he sent his new enhanced Demons. These Demons were stronger, faster and we could tell that they had been enhanced with supernatural traits. We fought the Demons hard but most escaped. One of the Demons was able to capture my brother Keegan and took him to the Underworld. I want my brother back. There is no way in hell that I will rest until my brother is back from the Underworld, even if I have to sacrifice myself. 

I leave the meeting that my grandmother arranged with Epan and Yasmin, stating that I am tired and want to rest before our other meeting that is scheduled in a few hours. I talk Colin into going back to check on his pack and the Legion’s progress with the Demons. Tonight’s meeting will be all supernatural leaders getting together to plan a way to defend the human realm against the new breed of Demons and keeping Melomouzor in the Underworld. 
I have a plan. My amulet that hangs around my neck warms at the plan that I came up with. I can’t tell anyone my plan; if I do they will try to talk me out of it. I sneak into my room locking the door behind me. There is someone that I have to talk to and I need to go to sleep to do this. Since I have the power of the Fae, I should be able to dream walk to reach him. Before gaining these powers I didn’t know I had, I had never dream walked. Once learning the depths of my powers, I was sent to Faery to train to learn how to use them before having to make an urgent return to the human realm. 


I should be able to dream walk without any problems. Having all the powers and accessing them should come easy for me. I just
need to use them and not think so much. I have no choice. It will be up to me to save Keegan and the realm. I lay across my bed trying to get comfortable. This will only work if I fall asleep. I relax my breathing to slow deep breaths. My body finally relaxes and I doze off to sleep.

Review

*I was given a copy of this book by Stephanie's Book Reports in exchange for an honest review.
5 stars for Power of the Fae by Ariel Marie!! This is the first book in The Mirrored Prophecy series, and it is a great read!!
Arlina Waldmar is part Fae and part human. She is the Princess of the Light Fae and a deadly member of the Guardians of the Fae. When many different types of supernatural beings go missing, she is sent to the human realm to investigate all of the mysterious disappearances. She soon learns of a prophecy that the ancient supernaturals spoke of called The Mirrored Prophecy. The prophecy had two different versions. One spoke of a small, dark haired female of mixed heritage who would give birth to a child who would save mankind. The other version spoke of this same child bringing the demise of the world. To say that she is shocked to learn that she is the female spoken about in the prophecy would be a huge understatement.
Colin Mackenzie is the alpha wolf of the Diamond pack. He has come to the conclusion that finding a mate is just not in his future. He is too busy leading and protecting his pack to even think about having a relationship. Imagine his surprise when he meets the Princess of the Light Fae, and his wolf recognizes her as his mate. Although is wolf continues to recognize her as his mate, Colin refuses to claim her. Arlina can't stop thinking about Colin, so she decides to do everything within her power to convince him to give her a chance.
As Colin and Arlina work together to solve the mysterious disappearances that are taking place, they grow closer and closer. When they discover that an evil force is set on destroying both the human and faery realms, they must work together to save everyone and everything that they know and love.
This story is packed full of suspense and danger. Even though it ends in a cliff hanger, it is so worth reading. If you are looking for a story to lose yourself in, this is the book for you! One click it now!!

Excerpt

Prologue

10 Years ago...
Snuggling down further in my bed, I turn over trying to get more comfortable. I punch my pillow until it’s just right. Suddenly a loud rumble could be heard followed by the palace alarms screaming, alerting everyone of an emergency! My eyes pop open.
What the heck is that?
I jump from my bed tossing my shoes on. Grabbing my new katana that was just given to me on my fifteenth birthday last week, I strap it to my back and head out into the hallway. There are a few maids and a guard running down the hallway. I look around
and spot my personal maid Tillie running towards me.
“Tillie!” I run over to meet her. “What is going on?”
“What are you doing out of your room? The palace is under attack! Let’s get thehell out of here!” Tillie shouts while trying to drag me down the hallway with her. I pull back in the opposite direction trying to go down the front hallway stairs.
“No! I must find my parents and brother!” I run down the stairs to the main hallway with Tillie on my heels.
“Are you crazy?” she yells. I ignore her and keep going. Palace guards are running towards the front door while a few are directing people to the back of the building. The alarm is still blaring, signifying that the palace is under attack. This doesn’t seem like the
drills they make us practice. I follow behind the guards sensing that they are heading in the direction of my father.
“Arlina, no! You cannot go that way! You know we are supposed to take you to the escape tunnel if we are under attack! That’s a standing order from your father!” Tillie yells over all of the noise as she follows me. “He’ll kill me if he sees you out here! Your father would not want you in the middle of this!”
“I don’t care! I’m not leaving without my family! I can help! I’ve been training.”
The thought that my family could be in danger drives me to hunt them down. I am a Waldmar, dammit! We don’t run from a fight! The last guard makes a sharp right at the end of the hallway and I follow.
As I round the corner, I see my father and brother speaking with a few Guardians and The Royal Guard of the palace. My father Vamir Waldmar, Prince of the Light Fae, stands tall with his long blond hair in one single braid running down his back.
My brother Keegan stands next to my father. He is the spitting image of my father. My mother always jokes around that she wasn’t sure who carried my brother, her or my father. My brother’s hair is the same. He stands about two inches taller than my father at
six foot four inches. Both of them are decked out in the normal Guardian tactical gear.
My father is barking orders to the Royal Guards and the Guardians that are surrounding him. I yell my brother’s name as I run towards them.
“Keegan!” His eyes narrow as they lock on me. His eyes are cold as he stares into
mine. I just ignore his infamous death stare. “Where’s mom?”
“Lina, what the hell are you doing here?” He ignores my question. “You know what you are supposed to do if we are under attack! This is not a drill, this is for real!” He turns to Tillie. “Tillie, you know the protocol when the alarm sounds! Get her
out of here now!”
“No, I’ve been training! I can help! I don’t want to leave you!” I stress to him.
We don’t leave family behind, ever! I’m not leaving without them. I’m determined to try
to help my family defend our home. I have been enduring self-defense, combat and weapons training for a year now. It is required that all members of the royal family be able to defend themselves and become proficient with a weapon. All of my trainers have
said that I have excelled at physical combat and the use of a sword, hence, my father buying me a katana for my birthday. My dream is to one day become a member of the elite Guardians with my brother.
“Lina, you’re fifteen, you are not fighting now! This is real, not one of those
simulations!” he shouts at me. My dad looks over at me, his face clouded with anger.
There’s no point in arguing, even if Keegan lets me stay, my father will not. My father’s rage when released is unmatched by anyone. Keegan flags down a Royal Guard.
“Go to the rendezvous point. Wait for us there, we’ll get mom and meet you!”
He turns to the guard. “You are to take the Princess and her maid Tillie to the evacuation tunnels. I don’t care if you have to put her over your shoulder! You are to take Princess Arlina to the evacuation point at the South Hills marina! She better be there when I get
there!” he barks to the guard, his cold eyes drilling holes through the guard. 
The guard, visibly shaken, salutes my brother with a “Yes sir!”.
“Kee, where is mom? Don’t make me leave you! I want to stay!” I try
fighting the guard who is dragging me away. The guard shifts me around in front of him, pushing me down another hallway away from my brother and father.
“We’re going to get her. She’s in her tower, now go!” The east tower is a tall, glass encased tower that my father added to the palace for my mother after they were married. In the tower is her spell room where she is able to practice her witchcraft. My father leads the Guardians and the Royal Guard out the front door with their weapons
drawn. There is another rumble then a loud explosion that shatters the glass of all the windows and rattles the whole palace. We’re all thrown to the floor. I break away from the guard and Tillie, running down the hallway towards the front door.
“No!” I scream as I look to the east and see the glass tower encased in flames.
The smoke pours out of the hole in the roof into the night sky. The smoke resembles white clouds against the dark midnight sky. My legs give out causing me to fall to my knees as I scream for my mother. If she was in her beloved tower, there is no way that she could have survived that massive explosion.
Everywhere I look, Guardians and the Royal Guards have engaged in
fighting. Several other parts of the palace are on fire releasing more thick smoke making it even more difficult to see. Everything is moving in slow motion. Looking around, I see bodies lying around on the ground. The smoke is becoming a thick fog. I can’t tell who
is attacking us through all the smoke and the cover of the night.
Through the foggy haze I can see dark creatures with large wingspans flying through the sky. All around me, I hear screams and the sound of swords clashing in the air. To my left, I see Viktor, a seasoned Guardian, in the midst of battle with a grotesque creature. He swiftly swings his sword and I watch the head of the enemy fall to the
ground and roll away. The body stands stunned before collapsing to the ground. It is a dark muscular body with wings. Never before have I laid eyes on such a creature. The body begins to disintegrate slowly right before my eyes. I blink my eyes a few times, praying that my eyes are playing tricks on me.
My father and brother along with the Guardians and Royal Guards have engaged in fighting these creatures that are invading our land and attacking our home.
These creatures are not of the Fae. The creatures skin ranges from brown to midnight black, some are winged and some are not. They have large claws and blood tinged eyes with large horns coming out of their heads. Faery is home to plenty of different types of
creatures but none that look like these invaders. Even the Dark Fae doesn’t have any beings that resemble these.
What is going on? A part of the decimated building begins to fall to the ground.
Tears roll down my face, making it harder to see with all the smoke surrounding me. I’m grabbed from behind by the palace guard and dragged away, screaming, crying and twisting my body trying to get free. As I watch, my brother and father run into the thickest part of the dark fog, there is another explosion behind us and everything goes
black.
