Illusion Agency: Beloved for the Bastard
About the book
I am Adalinda Winley. I’m an illusionist mage, and I can craft any illusion you need. Want to impress someone important? Earn a business partner’s trust? Calm down a mother who dreams of marrying you off ASAP? We take on all kinds of requests! Everything was going smoothly—until Benjamin Stein knocked on the agency’s door. The king’s illegitimate brother. The shadow ruler of the kingdom. Brooding, sarcastic, and thoroughly unpleasant. He needed an illusion of love. And for some bizarre reason, he wanted me to be the one in love with him. Which is odd—considering the last time we met, he threatened to… kill me. Now I’m tangled in a string of strange events, assassination attempts, and investigations. And the worst part? I won’t be able to walk away until every last mystery is solved.

svitlana-gancuk02.03.2026, 22:48I'm not sure if the promised riches will outweigh the possible risks. The stakes are really high.
marina-morgun07.02.2026, 18:32Alelaide's desire to switch to office work doesn't quite align with the client's wishes, so she'll have to work "in the field" a bit longer.
alest07.01.2026, 00:16Adalinda works in an interesting place. And why did Benjamin insist on her specifically for the role of his beloved?
olena-guida05.02.2026, 19:49AlesT, Has reasons)))
nina-mixailovska-spicak07.01.2026, 16:11Incredible story of Adalinda..... thank you.

The gray eminence, the bastard of the late king, the brother of the current king, made a choice. And what? That's it. It's just unclear why.
olena-guida05.02.2026, 19:49Svitlana Hanchuk, Well, it will become clear later)

svetlana-marcenko05.02.2026, 18:45Adalinda works at an agency of illusions. And for some reason, she caught the interest of Benjamin, the king's bastard. He desired for Adalinda to play the role of his beloved. Though she refused at first, she agreed for a quarter of the agency. Interesting adventures await Adalinda. Thank you.

nikon06.01.2026, 23:43And Linda is great, thinking about her future, and she managed to secure a share from the agency! As for this Benjamin, she'll somehow put up with him..)))
olena-guida06.01.2026, 23:47nikon, After all, if there’s such an opportunity, why not take advantage of it)

Unfortunately, greed often (very often) spectacularly prevails in our non-magical world as well...
olena-guida06.01.2026, 19:52Svitlana Hanchuk, That's for sure

Adalinda's Agency provides services at the client's request... but not everything can go smoothly and seamlessly... and so it is at the agency when Benjamin doesn't show up...
olena-guida30.12.2025, 11:39Nina Mykhailivska-Spychak, 100%

So, the king's bastard desired the illusion of love? And the beloved is supposed to be Adalinda? What an honor! Poor girl...
olena-guida30.12.2025, 11:39Svitlana Hanchuk, She will become rich when she completes the order)
- alest01.12.2025, 23:32
Very interesting story. Well done to Adalinda for demanding a quarter of the agency for her work. Working with an unpleasant person should be well paid.
olena-guida30.12.2025, 11:38AlesT, ❤️❤️❤️
