The gods sent monsters to the five kingdoms to remind mortals they must kneel.
I've spent my life kneeling-to 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 father's throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life.
Now I'm crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him-bound to a future I didn't choose and a husband I barely know.
Everyone wants me to be something I'm not-a queen, a spy, a sacrifice.
But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if there's power in being underestimated?
And what if-for the first time-I reached for it?
Tropes:
Enemies to Lovers
Magic, Myths and Monsters
Slow-Burn
