"That blade was forged to end wars," Lyra said, her voice calm. "Or begin them." Kael's gaze never left the dagger. "Most things meant to protect end up doing both." His hand stilled beside hers, close enough to feel the heat of him. Once, that same hand had removed a crown from her fate without ever touching her head. "Say the word," Kael murmured, already looking at her. "And I'll make every throne involved bleed." "That would make you a villain," she said quietly. His gaze never left hers. "My blood has always known how to ruin kingdoms," he said softly. "I just never chose who for." Silence tightened. "Until you." **ONGOING AND EDITING**

Her biological father, powerful and dangerous, wants something from her... and he won't take no for an answer. This was never supposed to feel like home. But maybe home isn't a place. Maybe it's a person. A heartfelt, slow-burn romance with secrets, scars, and the kind of love that demands to be fought for.
