She was taken by the enemy. Falling for him was never part of the bargain.
Aleciana no longer knows where she belongs. The court she once trusted feels like a cage. The truths she uncovered refuse to stay buried. And Edric, the prince she should hate, is the one person she cannot forget.
He came searching for a weapon. Now he knows the truth. The relic was never meant to control dragons. It was meant to protect them.
As the crown tightens its grip and old lies begin to crack, Aleciana is caught between everything she once believed and the truth she can no longer ignore.
Loving Edric isn’t just dangerous. It’s treason.
And when a royal alliance threatens to bind him to the real princess, Aleciana is forced to face the truth. She was never meant to be chosen.
And now she might lose him to the woman she was meant to protect.
