Now that you have met my characters living rent-free in my head, hi, I'm Inz, an introvert with a lot of weird thoughts, but for the dark romance stories, I have a deep, unrestrainable love. I'm excited (nervous too!) to finally write this story on Wattpad.

I have written a story before and still my grammar isn't good, so if you see any extra commas, incorrect spelling, so please excuse! I'm learning as I go. Feel free to politely point out any errors. I appreciate you for sticking with me.

And I have a question: what character are you claiming already?😏

Be careful, you might cannot decide between Zayd and Ayaan. They're going to ruin you in the upcoming chapters🌚

This is the first book of The Crown & Blood Series
