Nutukaa
Alina has never fit the crown's expectations.
Kairon has never stepped beyond the quiet discipline of his magic.
They are not meant for each other-one bound to court politics, the other to a magic that demands restraint. What begins as something light soon asks more than curiosity, and staying becomes a choice neither of them can make without cost.
To stand together, Alina must decide how much of herself she is willing to give to duty, and Kairon must choose whether restraint is worth the life it costs him.
A slow-burn romantasy shaped by quiet defiance, restrained magic, and the cost of choosing closeness.
