The Manifested Lie | By Sheyanne Warren

Manifested Lie: Magic, Blood, and Broken Truths

Pulls you into a world where power is inherited, loyalty is tested, and being chosen might be the most dangerous thing of all.

Selene Trueshadow never wanted to stand out. She was content being overlooked—just another girl with quiet magic and louder friends. But when a forgotten portal reopens and a long-buried family secret surfaces, Selene is thrust into the center of a deadly legacy connecting her bloodline to a dying realm, a vanished queen, and a monster whispered about as the Seeker.

Dragged into a world of political deception, forbidden magic, and erased histories, Selene must navigate fractured friendships, a mysterious prince whose charm hides too many lies, and a rival classmate who remembers far more than she should. As alliances shift and trust becomes a liability, Selene realizes survival will demand more than power—it will demand sacrifice.

With her fire magic fading, her telekinesis faltering, and grief tightening its grip, Selene faces the truth: saving this realm won’t come with glory.
It will come with blood.
