    Summary

    When nine-year-old Leia Organa is captured by Darth Vader, a blood test reveals the truth: she is his daughter. But instead of returning her, he claims her. Not as a hostage, but as an heir.

    Trained in the shadows of Mustafar, torn from her family and everything she once believed, Leia learns to survive under the Empire’s watchful eye. As the years pass, she is shaped into a weapon, bound by control, and haunted by the memory of who she used to be.

    Caught between rebellion and obedience, light and darkness, Leia walks a razor-thin line. But every choice she makes brings her closer to one question: will she escape the fate Vader has planned for her or embrace it?

    As the years pass, the question is no longer if she’ll fall… but how far.

    Summary

    “Where's Ginny?” she asks, because she does not wanna be caught sobbing in Georgia Miller's arms by the daughter she currently has a rocky relationship with.

    Georgia shrugs. Man, she wishes Ellen were this cool. “I dunno. You'd know more than me.”

    Max checks her phone. MANG has met up at Blue Farm. They even tagged Max to go join. She's not in the mood, but her heart doesn't collapse from the anxiety at the thought. Maybe another day. She types it to them.

    “You know,” Georgia is looking at her thoughtfully when she pockets her phone. “Out of all of Ginny's friends, you were always my favorite.”

    Summary

    Golden, beautiful, charming, pompous Arthur, drawing everyone to him like moths to a flame. She thinks of how he is the only other person in the world who understands what it's like to be Uther Pendragon's child, to crave the approval of that looming shadow and want to break free of it in the same breath. She hates him. She hates him. She hates him.

    It’s only part of the truth, even now.
