VICIOUS | HOTD

Born into the wealth and power of Myr's ruling elite, Seraphine Naqevos was raised in a world of cunning politics and hidden knives. As the daughter of a Magister, she was expected to be obedient, a pawn in her father's endless pursuit of power. But when he arranges a marriage to secure an alliance, Seraphine refuses to be bartered like a commodity. She flees across the Narrow Sea, leaving behind her former life-and anyone who dares pursue her meets a brutal end.

Westeros soon whispers of "The Vicious", a name spoken in fear. She is a ghost in the night, a storm of steel and blood, and any who stand in her way, be it her father's relentless hunters, bounty seekers, or men foolish enough to underestimate her, do not live to tell the tale.

Her path crosses with Prince Daemon Targaryen in the heat of war. First in the Stepstones, where he sees her as nothing more than an unpredictable, dangerous foreigner, and later in King's Landing, where their fates tangle in the growing storm of Targaryen ambition. Their clashes are sharp, their hatred palpable. He is reckless, proud, and insufferable; she is ruthless, cunning, and untamed. Neither bows, neither yields. But as war and fire consume the realm, their rivalry turns into something else, something neither of them can control.

Enemies. Rivals. Kindred spirits.

In a land ruled by dragons, Seraphine must decide whether to forge her own path or be consumed by the coming storm. And Daemon? He has never feared fire, but she may be the first to truly burn him.
