sacrificium

Princess Elora of Ravengarde has spent her life bound by duty, her every breath dictated by royal expectations. At twenty-one, she has yet to choose a suitor, a defiance that has placed her in bitter conflict with her family. Now, they seek to wed her to a foreign prince, sealing her fate in a loveless union. But Elora refuses to be sold like chattel.

Restless and yearning for a life beyond the gilded cage of her castle, she finds solace in forbidden indulgences. When an opportunity arises to slip into the village unnoticed, she seizes it, desperate to glimpse the world beyond the palace walls.

But secrets fester in the shadows of Ravengarde. Beneath the polished marble and golden chandeliers, betrayal brews. For six years, a cold and distant knight has stood within the castle's halls, unwavering in their loyalty, or so it seems. In truth, they have been biding their time, preparing for the moment when their blade will strike.

As Elora treads the path of rebellion, she unknowingly steps into a web of deception, where love and treachery dance hand in hand, and the greatest danger may lie within her very home.
