The Inquisitor's Assistant

// What separates a hero from a villain is motivation. //

One wanted to save the world, another to destroy it. And she? She just wanted a slightly better life than the one she was meant to have.

Taking over the identity of her dead twin brother has kept her family safe. But when she is forced to become the assistant of the cruelest man in the City, the Inquisitor, the same lie might kill them all. But he's hiding something too-something powerful enough to shatter their world as they know it. And Wren? She's about to find herself caught in the eye of the storm.

About the Story & Content Warnings

✨ This is a completed YA dystopian story. Completed as in: the full draft is already written-I'm just releasing two chapters a week. So no worries about the story being abandoned. 🙂

✨ Since it's a dystopian setting, the story touches on darker themes that some readers may find disturbing. I believe real life can often be far more terrifying than fiction, and I aim to handle those moments with care. When a chapter includes something that might be triggering-like disordered eating or other sensitive topics-I'll add a content warning beforehand.

If you feel something needs a warning and I've missed it, please don't hesitate to let me know. Your comfort matters. 💛

✨ PSA: At least one main character is gay (hence the tag), but this isn't a story focused on love - just a dark little story with secrets, ambition, and one (very reluctant) assistant who's trying not to die. Come for the power games, stay for the emotional damage.
