Aeger—a vassal kingdom both rich and ruined. A land of warriors and excess, ruled by twin kings who revel in debauchery yet remain unmatched in power. The empire seeks control, and the diarchs' elder sister, the Crown Princess, plays her own game—using Aeger to strengthen her hold on the court while trying to tame the brothers who threaten it. Marina Velkas, an Imperial Guard and reluctant governor, is sent to bring order. Instead, she is met with mockery in court, resistance in governance, and two kings who refuse to yield. Ruyi, sharp-tongued and reckless, enjoys breaking her defenses. Ruyel, cold and calculating, waits for her to surrender. But Marina does not break. She bends Aeger to her will, yet the kings remain watching, waiting. The court sees her as a passing intrigue, but whispers grow—of a bond that cannot be undone, of a governor who stands at the edge of something far greater. With the empire closing in and the kings tightening their claim, Marina must decide—continue fighting for a kingdom that will never be hers, or rise as its reluctant queen. [Formerly Sovereign of the Beasts. The first volume is seductive feline courtship and rather wholesome, but the first chapter is a throw forward to what would happen later.] ________________________________________ Excerpt: The Courtroom Duel Ruyi: “Denied.” Marina: “Of course it is.” Ruyel: “Try again with something less useless.” Marina: “Oh, I didn’t realize starving citizens were a matter of inconvenience to Your Majesties.” Ruyi: “They’re not starving. They’re simply unmotivated.” Marina: “Perhaps if you put more coin into infrastructure instead of your endless banquets, motivation wouldn’t be an issue.” Ruyel: “Careful, Governor. That sounds dangerously close to insubordination.” Marina: “And what will you do? Execute me for stating facts?” Ruyi: “Tempting, but then it would be too much paperwork?” Ruyel: “Answering another one of elder sister's calls isn't on my agenda.” Marina: “I just want a fair negotiation.” Ruyi: “It was, until you became insufferable.” Marina: “How terrible for you. A woman you can’t silence.” Ruyel: “Not yet.” (Laughter ripples through the court.) The Tiger’s Sparring Ground Marina: “Stop touching me like that.” Ruyel: “I’m correcting your stance.” Marina: “Find another student.” Ruyel: “I can’t.” Marina: “Why?” Ruyel: “Because no one else is worth my time.” Marina: “Then suffer alone.” Ruyel: “Oh, but I enjoy watching you suffer with me.” Marina: “You’re insufferable.” Ruyel: “And yet, your legs tremble every time I step too close.” Marina: “That’s from exhaustion.” Ruyel: “Liar.” Marina: “Get off me.” Ruyel: “No.” Marina: “I hate you.” Ruyel: “I know.” (Silence. Still trapped in his arms.) The Lion’s Den Marina: “Stop distracting me.” Ruyi: “But you’re so cute when you’re angry.” Marina: “You humiliated me today.” Ruyi: “And now I’m making up for it.” Marina: “By crawling into my bed?” Ruyi: “By holding the most important person in Aeger.” Marina: “I hate you.” Ruyi: “I know. Now, let me warm you up.” Marina: “You rejected my proposal.” Ruyi: “And I will approve it first thing in the morning.” Marina: “You—what?” Ruyi: “The only reason Aeger has more welfare programs than the empire now is because of how cute you are when you argue.” Marina: “That is not how governance works.” Ruyi: “That is exactly how governance works.” Marina: “You—” Ruyi: “Shh. Sleep, Marina.” (Tomorrow, the court will call her Governor. But tonight, she holds the true power.)

"Hate was the only thing between us—until it wasn’t." -ISLA- Revenge is my birthright. Ever since the fire that claimed my brother and shattered my family, I’ve rebuilt the Moreau empire from the ashes. But every brick I’ve laid, every deal I’ve struck, has come with one goal in mind: uncovering the truth behind that night. Ciaran Valente is the man I’ve hated since I learned how to hate. Infuriating, cruel, and too clever for his own good, he thrives in darkness, just like I do. But when the ghosts of my past tie his family to my brother’s death, my hatred becomes the least dangerous thing between us. Because Ciaran doesn’t just step into my world—he consumes it. He sees through my armor, breaks down my defenses, and dares to turn my pain into something far more dangerous than vengeance: desire. But love doesn’t exist for people like us. Only power. Only lies. And when the masks come off, one truth will destroy us both. -CIARAN- Isla Moreau is my personal form of torment. Sharp-tongued, calculating, and as untouchable as ice. I’ve craved breaking her for years—not just to prove I could, but because there’s nothing more tempting than watching a queen fall. But Isla isn’t a game. She’s fire wrapped in steel, and she hides secrets even darker than my own. When the past collides with the present, revealing the cracks in our perfect façades, I discover something I didn’t think I was capable of: obsession. She consumes me—mind, body, and soul. But while I want to own her, she wants vengeance. While I crave her surrender, she wants the truth. And in the end, we’re not just enemies. We’re fated to ruin each other.
