The Manifested Lie

Selene Trueshadow never wanted to be chosen. She was perfectly fine staying overlooked-just another girl with quiet powers and louder friends. But when a forgotten portal opens and a family secret unravels her reality, Selene finds herself at the center of a dangerous legacy-one that ties her blood to a dying realm, a missing queen, and a monster known only as the Seeker.Dragged into a world of political lies, forbidden magic, and ghosted histories, Selene must navigate a fractured alliance with her closest friends, a mysterious prince who may or may not be lying through his perfect smile, and a rival classmate with a suspiciously sharp memory. When the line between enemy and ally blurs, and the cost of survival starts demanding more than power, Selene is forced to decide: what is she willing to sacrifice to protect a world that was never supposed to need her?With her fire magic drained, her telekinesis flickering, and grief curling around the edges of her mind, Selene must face the truth-saving the realm won't come with glory. It will come with blood.For readers who love messy magic, slow-burn romance, high-stakes secrets, and the kind of betrayal that breaks more than bones.
