In the kingdom of Ashenwood, shadows rule the land under the iron grip of King Xylaris, a once-noble ruler twisted by grief and vengeance after the sudden death of his beloved queen. Obsessed with uncovering her killer, the king turns to tyranny, sacrificing loyalty and reason for power.
Ezra, the crown prince, struggles beneath the weight of expectation and longing-for his father's approval, for answers, and for a different kind of future. Despite Xylaris's cold indifference, Ezra remains loyal, torn between duty and doubt.
Eloise, a fiery orphan raised by the late queen as her own, refuses to accept the king's merciless rule. Her defiance burns bright, igniting whispers of rebellion. As tensions rise, Eloise and Ezra find themselves caught in a dangerous dance between loyalty, love, and revolt.
In a kingdom built on ashes, can they rise together-or will the weight of the crown crush them both?

And then, he chooses her. Whispers ripple through the halls. Shock turns to outrage. Why would the Dark King-a man who could have anyone-claim the overlooked, unwanted daughter?

And in his arms, beneath the weight of his intense gaze, Evelyne is no longer invisible. She is his.
