The King Beneath: A Prequel Novella

.Every legend begins with an impossible choice.

In 44 B.C., Dacian king Burebista faces a looming Roman invasion and the certainty that military strength alone won’t be enough to protect his people. Desperate for an advantage, he follows his high priest to a place of ancient myth - a cave said to conceal the Mouth of the World, a threshold whispered to lie between this world and the stars.

What he finds underground isn’t salvation, but a terrible choice—one that could cost him his life, his legacy, and the future of his people. As cosmic forces converge and loyalties unravel, Burebista must decide whether to protect his kingdom with the sword—or with a sacrifice that will echo through the ages.

The King Beneath is the prequel novella to The Stars Beneath, a gothic time travel romance trilogy set fifteen centuries later in what is now Romania, during the reign of Vlad the Impaler. It is the gripping origin story of a prophecy that binds Laura and Valen across time—and begins a legend written in starlight and blood.
