"The Djinn Prince's Pact: A Romantasy of Legacy and Whispers"When her city faces starvation, desperate scholar Layla al-Nur breaks into the forbidden Coral Library, triggering a blood-debt pact with Azariel, a powerful Djinn prince. He will save her people in exchange for one year of her servitude. But nothing is as it seems.Layla discovers she is not the first woman named Layla bound to Azariel. She is the thirteenth attempt to resurrect his murdered wife-a queen killed 800 years ago when she threatened to expose the empire's dark secret. The grain that feeds her city comes from an ancient, horrific practice: the systematic draining of human life force, a crime orchestrated by the empire's elite.As Layla learns to wield dangerous magic and navigates a court where every whisper is a potential contract, she uncovers the horrifying truth: she is not merely a servant. She is a vessel, chosen because of her rare Djinn heritage and shared name, destined to be overwritten by the soul of the dead queen. Her memories are not her own; they are echoes of twelve failed resurrections, each ending in tragedy.Trapped between love and manipulation, loyalty and rebellion, Layla must confront the man who saved her city but seeks to erase her identity. Is Azariel a monster, or is he a man broken by centuries of grief and guilt? And what of Malik, the brother accused of murder, who may be the only one trying to stop the cycle?Her journey becomes one of radical self-discovery. She must fight not just for her city's survival, but for her very soul. Can she shatter the cycle of corruption and possessive love to forge a new destiny for herself-and an entire empire?*The Djinn Prince's Pact* is a sweeping romantasy epic of consent, identity, and the transformative power of love. It follows one woman's evolution from a starving scholar to a revolutionary force, proving that even the most broken soul can heal, rise, and change the very fabric of reality. In a world built on lies and contracts, her greatest weapon is her choice to become herself
