A warlord carved from stone. A princess raised among ghosts. A marriage meant to end in blood.
He is the Mountain's Wrath-towering, unyielding, and born to conquer. Soon to claim the throne of the war clans, he has no need for softness, least of all in the form of a fragile princess from the dying kingdom of the Dead Forest. But when his cunning uncle convinces him to at least meet his intended, curiosity stays his blade-for now.
She is the daughter of a fallen king, a girl whose birthright has been stolen by the mother who should have protected her. Forced into an arranged marriage with a warlord who has no use for her, she is meant to be discarded, destroyed, or forgotten. But she has spent a lifetime surviving treachery-she will not break so easily.
Bound by duty and divided by centuries of hatred, their marriage is a battlefield of its own. But as war brews at their borders and enemies circle in the shadows, they will have to decide: will they be each other's ruin... or their only salvation?

Crown of Ash and Bonds: The Rise of the Flamebearer by CGBlaire
95 parts Ongoing Mature
I was bred to obey. I obeyed when they handed me to a man I barely knew. I obeyed when my cousin smiled at me with knowing eyes while she shared my husband's bed. I obeyed when I felt like an intruder in my own marriage and told myself it would get better. I was carrying his child when he signed my death warrant. My cousin stood at his side during my execution. She had never left him. I was just the name. The woman who warmed the bed while she kept everything she actually wanted. The court watched in silence as the flames took me. I died with my child still inside me and the taste of betrayal in my final breath. Then I woke up months before the pyre. Same husband. Same cousin. Same court full of traitors who have not yet shown their faces. But I am not the same woman who believed love could be earned through obedience. I remember everything they will do to me. And now I have time to make them pay. There is a man named Caelan Vorenthal. He is my husband's greatest rival and the most dangerous person at court. When the charges were read, he knew they were lies. He took a step forward when everyone else stayed frozen. One man against a court of traitors. He hesitated because he could not win. But he wanted to try. That meant more than I realized. Caelan is not safe. He is not simple. And whatever is growing between us could destroy everything I am building or become the one thing they never saw coming. I will take back my name. I will reclaim the inheritance they stole from my bloodline. I will stand before the Empress and demand the divorce that will end my husband's claim to everything he took from me. And when the fire answers to my blood and the destiny they tried to bury rises with me, they will learn what it costs to underestimate a woman they trained to kneel. I was bred to obey. Now I choose who burns.

After a century of war ignited by betrayal, Katria Aleanarnith, middle princess of the Ilythilian Empire, has become more weapon than woman.

He has unified his scattered people through fire, steel, and ancient oaths, but his vision of peace rests on one thing: a sacred union with the elven princess who sparked the war. He doesn't just want Katria as an ally-he believes she is his fated mate. And he will wait, fight, or burn for her soul. But as court intrigue festers, old wounds reopen, and their enemies circle, desire and duty blur. Katria and Taleth must decide whether to trust each other-not just with power, but with what's left of their hearts. Fate brought them together. War shaped them. But love? That might be the storm that breaks them both.
