‎In the Kingdom of Seraphyne, Princess Athanasia lives in the shadow of her beloved sister, Athenais-the new Empress of the powerful Antherion Empire. When Athenais departs for her new life beside the Emperor, Athanasia is left to face the quiet emptiness of the palace and the uncertain path of her own destiny. But peace never lasts long in the world of royals. With the arrival of Duke Alcaeus-mysterious, composed, and impossibly unreadable-Athanasia finds herself caught between duty and emotions she never expected. At her side stands Kaius, her loyal knight and childhood friend, whose silent devotion begins to blur the line between protection and something deeper. As love, loyalty, and politics intertwine, Athanasia must learn that the heart of a princess is not always bound by the crown... and sometimes, the most dangerous battles are the ones fought in silence. 2025 TAGLISH
