Red Does Not Forget

In the fractured realm of Aeltheris, where magic is forbidden, Princess Evelyne of Edrathen has been trained to be a statue — graceful, unmoving, perfect. A symbol. Her wedding to Prince Alaric of Varantia is meant to unite kingdoms, bury the blood-soaked past, and seal her fate as a living monument to peace.

But nothing is as it seems.
In the heart of the palace, ritual and power entwine like thread through velvet. Prophecies lie shattered beneath marble altars. Blood symbols bloom behind chapel walls. And beneath it all, a deeper magic pulses. Forgotten, divine, and furious.
As Evelyne uncovers the cracks beneath her kingdom’s perfection, she must decide what kind of woman she wants to be: the silent bride in the tower… or the storm that breaks it.

Set in a world of moonlight rituals, forbidden magic, and the quiet rage of women forced to smile through their own undoing, *The Age of Silence: Red Does Not Forget* is a story of survival, reclamation, and the cost of becoming whole in a kingdom that fears wholeness.
This is not a story about a woman marrying a prince.
It’s about a girl surviving a system that wants to silence her — and choosing, slowly, painfully, to speak.

To live.

Some threads were never meant to be cut.
Some silence was never meant to last.
