Novel: Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi

Juliette is a tiny, wispy thing making her way down a long corridor. Her frame is skin and bones and her eyes are haunted, darting this way and that. Yet on either side of her are fully armed soldiers quaking in their boots.

Just yesterday, one of them grazed her skin and crumpled on the ground, sobbing. The worst part? It filled Juliette with energy. It makes her sick to think that she’s a being who feeds off the pain of others. She never wants to use this power but it’s either use it or watch others she cares for get hurt.

Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi. Book 1.

It’s not standard savior behavior to toss someone into a filthy dungeon. But Hawke had no other choice. Either that or further risk Poppy’s life.

He comes visiting, promising that if she behaves, she’ll get better accommodations. She swears she hates him and regrets everything with him. He pretends he’s unfazed but ouch. Launching into a history lesson, he opens her eyes to a whole new world. Her way of repaying him? You won’t see it coming.

“Have anyone of you seen Hawke? He was called away in the middle of the night.”

Cue: awkward silence as three pairs of male eyes are trained on the Maiden who isn’t… anymore.

Poppy finally braved it and did what she’s been dreaming about all along - a decision she made for herself. As the Maiden, her entire life has been dictated for her with no way out. But due to threats on her life, she embarks on an unexpected journey that provides a tiny opening for something different.

Poppy grabs it, completely in love with Hawke and fully trusting him. The next morning, her life and those of her travel companions are in danger but Hawke is missing. Is he in danger or the danger?

Tonight is Poppy’s first attendance at The Rite, an annual celebration held in the Kingdom of Solis. Before now, she wasn’t allowed to attend because she’s the Maiden. She’s currently 18 and once she’s 19, another Rite would be held where she would be the central event.

Poppy refuses to think about any of that. She pretends she’s a regular teenager enjoying an evening out. But things are about to take a drastic turn. There are attacks, lives lost but all that chaos doesn’t touch Lord Mazeen, Poppy’s bully. It’s up to her to inflict it on him. It should be impossible but this is what it takes…

In the past few years, Poppy has had three bodyguards and a Lady-in-waiting. They attend to her, care for her and might even love her. However, they cannot do a thing whenever the Duke calls her to his office for “lessons”. They also watch helplessly whenever the Priestess slaps her repeatedly for doing, well, anything at all.

Poppy is on the verge of losing her mind. Suddenly, a new guard is assigned to her. She treats him distantly, expecting he’s just like the rest. Except he’s not. He is not Poppy’s knight in shining armor but rather urges her to wear her own armor and fight back.

“With my sword and with my life, I vow to keep you safe, PENELLAPHE. From this moment to the last, I am yours.”

These are the vows Hawke Flynn lays at Poppy’s feet when he’s assigned to be her Royal Guard - a rank he’s not yet qualified for. He even got the vows wrong and no one corrected him. He was supposed to say, “Maiden, The Chosen,” not her name.

Some months ago, Poppy did something crazy. She went into an inn wearing a disguise and got entangled with a certain stranger, Hawke. He didn’t see her face that night but they talked. Now that he’s her guard, she must stay quiet around him for fear he might recognise her voice. If he does, he could report her to Duke Teerman and the consequences would be nothing short of a nightmare.
