The Dark Prince K C Wanamaker

By order of a former king of Emperia and the Zoran church the practice of magic was forbidden and punishable by death, yet it persisted. There was a superstitious gaggle of woman present when Prince Blagdon was born during a loud clap of thunder. There was no doubt in their minds that he would be a Child of Doom. No one dared tell the happy but tired queen mother that her second son a twin was born under these circumstances. The old mid-wife being a witch knew what such a birth might mean for her and she disappeared in a puff of magic never to claim her gold crowns from the king. As the prince grew up could he be blamed for his wife's well-meant indiscretions, the early death of his son, his brother's brutal assassination and all else that afflicted the kingdom during his rule as Guardian of the Kingdom of the Emperia throne? He sends his niece, High Princess Edana, at the tender age of twelve to rid him of her sight, on a dangerous trip across Aurnia to a faraway elite girl's school. It's only redeeming fact is that she meets the Aloisan Earl of Dermont's son known as Lord Logan.
