There is Always a Price to Pay
So Darius warned her when she accepted a position with his traveling troupe. And gazing mesmerized at the merciless slash of his mouth, the implacable resolve on his face, the soulless emptiness of his black eyes, Tempest was afraid to ask what it was.
She had always been different, apart from others. From the moment his arms closed around her, enveloping her in a sorcerer's spell, Darius seemed to understand her unique gifts. But did his kiss offer the love and belonging she sought, or a danger more potent than his own panthers?
Somewhere deep inside herself, Tempest realized she knew the answer. She had no choice but to accept the velvet stroke of his tongue, submit to the white-hot heat piercing her skin, welcome an erotic pleasure like no other...

Investigate an eerie abandoned castle in Scotland with Dark Parables – Curse of the Briar Rose, and uncover the true tale of Sleeping Beauty.
Once upon a time, a wicked godmother cursed a young princess. When the princess pricked her finger on a spindle, the entire kingdom fell into a deep slumber and was covered in thorny vines. One prince dared past these briars and kissed the Sleeping Beauty, but the poor princess continued to sleep as the rest of the kingdom returned to normal. Now, 1000 years later, those briars are growing once again, this time threatening to cover the whole of Edinburgh, Scotland.

In the fairy tale, the handsome prince wakes Sleeping Beauty with true love's kiss and everyone lives happily ever after, but as we learn in Dark Parables: Curse of Briar Rose, that's not quite what really happened.

Now, 1,000 years later, the briars have returned and threatening not just to overrun the castle, but to cover the entire city. Your job, detective, is to get to the root of this thorny problem.
