The Kingdom of Ilyaa was among twelve that were formed after a calamity struck the Earth as heavenly punishment for corrupt leaders taking power. The world had suffered forcefully before man did what man does best after destruction - rebuild.

A dozen soldiers gathered under the first clear night sky of forty years, clad in armor and blood, and took an oath to start anew. They will lead newborn kingdoms, rebuild their palaces, abstain from disorder, and enforce righteousness during their reign for centuries to come. 

"By the will of who created us and this world," The leader, Admiral Bayazid, said while forging a contract made of desert stone. The men huddled together while bright light kindled the sand beneath their feet. "May there only be peace for the next thousand years." 

And truth be told, the prayer was granted. 

One thousand years of peace ensued...until Teyaher Ilyaa - Bayazid's far descendent - was born.

Banished for five years, Lady Belinda Carrington returns to Willowfair, claiming to know things one would find impossible to believe. With her tainted reputation, can Belinda make Town Guard McKenzie Haverston help her in her pursuit of the truth? *** After her banishment five years ago, Belinda Carrington returns with secrets and tales too impossible to believe. But something in her lies makes McKenzie Haverston desperate for the truth... When Belinda shows up in McKenzie's home asking for protection in return for important information on a case he's working on, he rejects her. But when he learns where she had been banished after her great scandal five years ago, he finds himself striking a deal with the woman-he protects her, she gives him answers. The question now is: how true is her tale? She was once considered the fairest of them all, but one scandal later, she has become the most reviled. And she is also being hunted. If Belinda wants to stay alive, she has to start trusting McKenzie Haverston, a task she finds to be surprisingly easy to do. However, as the truth of the past begins to resurface, and the secrets of her scandal is revealed, Belinda is confronted by her own demons, causing her to doubt her own reality.
