ARAYE by Adenike Oni
Everyone, except Araye, looked forward to the crown prince's arrival. Despite her disinterest, she didn't expect that the crown prince would be her trial—the beginning of her trials. Araye's father is the keeper of the “secrets to the gate”, an ancient scroll that contains the details of Eritonia's impenetrable walls. When Prince Dovian discovers that her betrothed is not who he claims to be, and only wants her for the scroll, he offers to marry her to save her and the kingdom. She refuses, prompting him to seek assistance from Romike, a clever but deceitful lady. Things get complicated as everything Prince Dovian does to stop the wedding fails. When Araye finally discovers the truth, hearts have been broken and hopes shattered. Staying true to her heart would be her only way out. Except, she isn't sure of anything. Not even her heart.
