In the frozen kingdom of Eldrath, King Aedric Veyne rules with iron and ice. Love is a weakness he does not allow himself. Mercy is a language he no longer speaks. Witchcraft is met only with fire. When a dying southern king offers him his daughter's hand and a path to peace, Aedric accepts a marriage shaped by duty, not desire. Princess Maria of Sareen crosses the sea carrying a secret her father never named aloud. Her smile is learned. Her silence is survival. She was born beneath a blood-red moon, marked by a magic the North has sworn to destroy. The same magic that once took Aedric's brother and left the kingdom scarred. This is the story of a land forced to confront the past it buried. Of a king ruled by grief and restraint. Of a woman called a curse before she is allowed to be human. It is the slow and dangerous pull between two souls never meant to touch, let alone endure each other. Their union was meant to secure peace. Instead, it stirs old gods from their sleep, draws buried curses to the surface, and blurs the boundary between hatred and desire, frost and flame. What follows is not a love story spoken aloud. It is one felt in silence, and paid for in blood. "The Witch and the Iron King" a dark fantasy romance where love is quiet, magic is forbidden, and the cold remembers everything.
