The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel.
Iâve spent my life kneelingâto their will and to my father's. As a princess, my only duty is to wear the crown and obey the king.
I was never meant to rule. Never meant to fight. And I was never supposed to be the daughter who sealed an ancient treaty with her own blood.
But that changed the fateful day I stepped into my fatherâs throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life.
Now Iâm crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise himâbound to a future I didnât choose and a husband I barely know.
Everyone wants me to be something Iâm notâa queen, a spy, a sacrifice.
But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if thereâs power in being underestimated?
And what ifâfor the first timeâI reached for it?
Tropes:
- Enemies to Lovers
- Magic, Myths and Monsters
- Slow-Burn
- Forced Proximity
- Arranged Marriage
- Hidden Identity
- High Stakes
