Beneath the Dragon's Throne
When an injured prince is rescued by a village physician, neither expects their lives to become entwined.
Shen Zhao was born for war, power, and the throne. Ravi Guang only wishes to heal the sick and live a quiet life. Yet a single encounter in a bamboo forest changes everything.
As court conspiracies deepen and rival factions battle for control of the Empire, the bond between them grows from gratitude into something far more dangerous. Bound by duty, separated by ambition, and tested by years of loss, they must navigate a world where love is a luxury few can afford.
From political intrigue and imperial succession to war, sacrifice, and second chances, Beneath the Dragon's Throne is a slow-burn historical fantasy romance about loyalty, healing, found family, and the courage to choose love-even when the entire world stands against it.
Some people fight for a throne. Others become the reason it is worth protecting.
