In a realm of four kingdoms, two were on the verge of war. Prince Eirik, the fourth prince of Valeidio, a Ferre whose beauty could rival the gods, was thrust into a marriage alliance with Prince Kaelix, the strong and proud heir of Zephyros. Both princes were determined to fight against the fate that had been forced on them. Eirik resented being used as a pawn, while Kaelix saw the alliance as a threat to his freedom. As they clashed in a battle of wills, their encounters became a constant push and pull of resistance and pride. But as the pressures of duty mounted, the lines between obligation and desire began to blur. In their struggle against their forced union, they found themselves drawn toward each other in ways they never expected. Would their bond become a weapon against the war or would their kingdoms' rivalries destroy any chance of love before it could take root? --- Warning: This book contains mature themes.

In the dim light of the twins' chambers, Amarok lay nestled between Lucian and Julian, their bodies providing warmth and comfort.
But despite the physical closeness, Amarok's mind was a storm of conflicting emotions.
He felt their gentle breaths against his skin, their steady heartbeats a soothing rhythm that threatened to lull him to sleep.
Yet sleep was far from his mind. His thoughts swirled into a maze of fear and doubt, fears that had taken root long before he ever entered the palace walls, and doubts that had only been magnified by his deepening involvement with the royal twins.
As the moonlight cast shadows on the walls, Amarok couldn't help but think of the societal implications of their relationship.
How would others in the palace view him now? He was no longer just a servant; he was something more to Lucian and Julian. But in a society as rigid and hierarchical as theirs, such a shift in roles was fraught with danger.
