    In the glittering halls of the Solcrest Empire, power may be inherited by blood, but love is not. Emperor Carlos de Messena has secured his throne, ended a succession crisis, and earned the devotion of his people. Yet in a single, carefully calculated announcement, he shatters the illusion of imperial perfection. Four children, born in secrecy during his youth, are now legitimized and summoned to court. An heir is named. And the empire breathes easier. However, fatherhood itself is a challenge that he is ill-prepared for. Over the course of one long, unforgiving day inside the Imperial Palace, Carlos must face what he truly abandoned. A dragon-taming daughter who prefers gardens to balls. A disciplined naval lieutenant who learned duty from institutions, as opposed to his father. A charming musician who mirrors the emperor's reckless youth. And a brilliant, sharp-tongued heir who refuses to let legitimacy erase the sting of past neglect. In a court where even affection is political, every conversation becomes a reckoning. Every silence, an accusation. As old wounds and past wrongs resurface, Carlos de Messena begins to understand one simple thing. Producing an heir is simple. Becoming a father is not.

Stay tuned... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Credits to the artists of the pictures in this book. Characters and some of the plot belongs to Mo Xiang Tong Xiu(MXTX for short).

    Dallas Winston wasn't scared of anything. He'd survived the streets of New York, two neglectful parents, and the reformatory. He'd been bucked off broncs, caught up in gang activity, and jumped more times than he's willing to admit. That all changed today though. Trepidation glossing those icy blue eyes.

    Olivia and Oliver Whitmore were never the center of their family. Born years after their older siblings had already grown up and left home, the twins spent most of their childhood in the quiet corners of a house that was always full-but never for them. When their mother's goddaughter, Sage, moved in after a tragic loss, the attention they rarely received disappeared entirely. Vacations happened without them. Family stories never included them. And somewhere along the way, they stopped expecting to be seen. But the twins never broke. They studied harder. Dreamed bigger. Built lives far beyond the walls of the home that had forgotten them. One became a pharmaceutical engineer developing life-saving medication for children. The other launched satellites that watched the fragile systems of the Earth from space. Together-and with the chosen family who found them along the way-they learned something their childhood never taught them: Love doesn't have to come from the people who were supposed to give it. Years later, when a single family gathering begins to unravel decades of quiet lies and uncomfortable truths, the people who once overlooked the twins are forced to confront the damage they never noticed. But Olivia and Oliver aren't looking for apologies anymore. They've already built something better. And sometimes, the strongest families are the ones we choose for ourselves.
