A Royal Obligation
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.

A Haunting Dream
Back in Neomenia, Eirik was taking an afternoon nap. He had been transferred from the healing chamber to a different, more comfortable chamber, which he now shared with Kaelix.
The room was spacious but not overly lavish, with soft shades of cream and gold adorning the walls, complemented by wooden beams that added a rustic charm. The ceiling was high, giving the room an airy feel, and a grand chandelier hung in the center, casting a warm, inviting glow.
A large, king-sized bed, draped with plush blankets and an abundance of pillows, occupied the center of the room. The bed's headboard was intricately carved with floral patterns, adding a touch of elegance. The air smelled faintly of lavender, a scent meant to calm the mind and lull its occupants into peaceful rest. A soft light filtered through the thin, gauzy curtains, casting gentle patterns on the polished wooden floor.
