THRONE OF TWO TRAITORS

A masquerade of politics. A throne soaked in lies. And two enemies destined to destroy-or crave-each other.

Princess Ashley Valemont of Elaria was never the perfect royal. She speaks too boldly, thinks too sharply, and fights too hard for a place she was only ever meant to decorate. But in a court where silence is survival, Ashley has mastered the art of holding her tongue-even when they try to marry her off like a pawn on a bloody chessboard. Until one dance. One man. One mistake.

King Rowan Elias Raventhorn, ruler of Valerius and sworn enemy of Elaria, came to the masquerade with murder in his mind and war in his shadow. But the girl in black? The one who didn't flinch, didn't bow, and dared to look him in the eyes? She wasn't part of the plan. Killing her should've been easy. But now... he isn't sure he wants to.

Because letting her live might be the most dangerous move of all.

Now, with kingdoms hanging by a thread, a political treaty laced in deceit, and betrayal waiting behind every crown-Ashley and Rowan are thrown into a game far more ruthless than either of them imagined.

They were born to hate each other.
But fate has other plans.
