A Loop of Oaths & Pacts [Time Loop Fantasy Book 1 Complete]

Helena Daevir has always striven to be the perfect paladin: bound by oaths, driven by duty, and desperate to prove herself worthy of her legendary father's name. But just as she graduates as an Ascendant paladin to begin her service as a demon hunter, her kingdom falls to an unexpected invasion. When the Crown Prince’s consort is killed before her, Helena is hurled back in time two days, receiving something no paladin is ever given: A second chance. But how many second chances she'll get? Bonded to a sardonic shadow creature and pitted against forces far beyond her, Helena races to uncover why time shatters when either she or the foreign princess die. Yet the more Helena uncovers about the mysterious princess, the more her world of black-and-white morality threatens to fracture. Whether chosen or cursed, Helena will do whatever it takes to save her people and her family. Even if it breaks her. Book One is complete (~240k words).
