Treason Stories

In a palace where silence is obedience and perfection is survival, Kabir exists as a shadow- an Indian servant who is anything but ordinary, a spy trained to observe, calculate, and disappear within the system that was never meant to see him as human. But the moment he catches the attention of Julien, a sharp-minded British official who notices what others overlook, the careful balance begins to fracture. Suspicion turns into fascination, and their quiet battle of control slowly shifts into something far more dangerous-recognition. Meanwhile, in the same suffocating corridors, Sarat- another spy who survives through humor, masking fear with laughter and rebellion with charm, until he crosses paths with Edric, a calm and unreadable figure who speaks in silences and watches like he already knows the ending. Where Sarat is chaos, Edric is control-and yet, against all logic, they begin to understand each other. As secrets tighten and loyalties blur, both pairs find themselves trapped in a system built to erase individuality, where every connection is a risk and every emotion a weakness. Because in a place like this, love is not freedom-it is treason.

Versailles, 1756. At the court of King Louis XV, the Chevalier Charles d'Éon de Beaumont's name is on everyone's lips. A mysterious androgynous figure, as handsome as he is intelligent, he arouses fascination and envy. For his part, Alexandre is 21 years old. He's been his squire for three years, mourning an impossible love for his master, to whom he is utterly loyal. He sometimes finds himself hoping for more, as he sees their relationship deepen, but fears that one day he'll be passed over for someone more interesting.

When reality calls their hearts to order, the masks fall off, and when they return to Versailles, nothing may ever be the same again. Written by Lucile Guyot, based on an original idea by Stephan Boschat. Translated by Alexandra Maldwyn-Davies.

Lady Victoria Schmidt is about to become a princess - but only by name. With her marriage to Prince Jefferson Jefferson III, she would become queen in name only, to 'rule' by his side. The laws of the country say that she could never truly have any power though, and these laws have been in place since the beginning of the monarchy of the New American Colonies. Victoria has always agreed with these laws (if only to spare her and her sister a beating from their father), but when her wedding is crashed by a supposedly disbanded group of rebellious women who call themselves the Revolutionaries, her life begins to change forever. Victoria is taken to the headquarters of the Revolutionaries as a hostage for the laws regarding women in the country to be rewritten. This is a plan that has been going on for nearly five years, ever since Victoria became engaged to the prince - and since Victoria's mother was murdered. Secrets surrounding her mother's death are revealed one at a time by the mysterious leader of these women, secrets that no one living was supposed to know. She's always known about the mystery behind her mother's death, known that her friends (and more than friends) at the palace knew something that she didn't. But she couldn't just go around asking them if it was her father that killed Audrey Schmidt... With threats of death for treason looming over her, Victoria must make a decision - and she must make it alone, something she's never been permitted to do. Her entire life, her father has chosen things for her; what to wear, how long her hair may be, where she could go, her entire life planned out before her. And now, she must decide for herself - risk her life to save her future, or sit back and watch the world burn. ***Thank you Anahlynn for the beautiful cover!!!
