I loved him even as he thrust his sword right through me.
A hundred concubines lived in Emperor Sylvos' inner court — the heart of his thorned castle. With a cruel ranking system, only favored concubines had the honor of meeting with His Majesty. And only the woman able to bear him a child could become Empress.
Raine Stjorme had climbed the ranks to the top. And after praying each night, she was finally with child. Yet all this was rewarded with the cruelest of fates.
Murdered by the man she loved, Raine cursed Emperor Sylvos with her dying breath. She cursed his whole court as they snickered at her final moments.
And her curse had taken root.
Now, Raine awakens three years before her destined death, on the fateful day she first encounters the emperor. Armed with this second chance, she vows to make him fall — and to bring his empire down with him.
But when faced with the tyrant who claimed her heart, could she still follow through?
