In the shadows of a realm ruled by the enigmatic Shadow King, Lilith treads carefully-a pawn in a perilous game of power. She knows the cost of defiance all too well, yet she harbors a burning desire for autonomy. As long as she serves the inscrutable Shadow King, whose name dares not be spoken, she believes herself free-technically.

But when thrust into an alliance by marriage with Eldoria's king, Lilith sees a chance to turn the tide of war towards peace, even as the Shadow King's ambitions loom. Can she master her own desires and outmaneuver both kings to carve out her own destiny? In a realm where shadows hold secrets and whispers hold sway, Lilith must navigate a treacherous path, where her greatest adversary may just be the darkness within.

He intensified his assault, sucking me dry. "Adam... I'm close," I gasped, my voice thick with desire. He paused, his eyes locking onto mine. "The slit is for my convenience," he said, his voice low and dangerous. "So I can play with you whenever I want. No, you can't wear anything that will come between us." ***************************************** Contains mature scenes, abusive language, abuse and dominance of the male lead and his obsession over his love. Please do not go ahead if you do not like reading R rated. You have been warned.

She was meant to be his pawn. He never expected her to become his ruin. When Sera Valeor is forced to marry King Maeron Thorne-Aerthwyn's feared and ruthless monarch-she knows the union is a lie, forged in blood and power. Chosen for her noble bloodline but shunned for her family's disgrace, Sera enters the palace as little more than a bargaining chip. But kings should know better than to underestimate a queen in a crimson gown. As Sera uncovers forbidden truths hidden in the palace walls-secrets about the lost queens before her, about the southern wing sealed in silence, and about a child whose blood threatens the very throne-she begins to unravel the lies Maeron has built his kingdom upon. Yet Maeron is not the monster she expected. Cold, calculating, and devastatingly commanding, he holds her body in the dark of night and dares her soul to remain her own. But even wolves bleed. And some thrones are made of more than steel-they're forged in oaths and thorns. Trapped between desire and betrayal, vengeance and destiny, Sera must decide: will she be the king's crown or his curse? Perfect for fans of slow-burn tension, forced marriage, court intrigue, and dangerously seductive rulers, Thorns and Oaths is a darkly romantic fantasy where secrets are currency-and love is the deadliest weapon of all.
