Book 2 of Crimson Realms series
A queen in the making.
A king weighed down by ghosts.
A marriage of duty. A love neither expected.
In the grand kingdom of Mahatara, where loyalty is currency and silence often speaks louder than words, Prince Abhijeet Rajvansh carries the weight of a crown he never asked for, and the grief of a brother he couldn't save. Stoic, guarded, and bound to his responsibilities, he has learned to lead without faltering-even if it means walking through fire alone.
Meera, daughter of a respected noble family, allied with the Rajvansh line. and raised on quiet resilience, never dreamed of ruling beside a king. Intelligent, brave, and unyielding in her ideals, she enters the palace not as a bride longing for affection, but as a woman determined to serve her people and honour her father's legacy.
What begins as a political alliance between strangers slowly morphs into something else: a dance of vulnerability and strength, forged through tense silences, midnight conversations, and battlefield loyalties. As enemies close in and hidden betrayals threaten the kingdom, Meera and Abhijeet must learn to trust-not just in each other's strategies, but in each other's hearts.
But trust isn't easily earned.
And love, even when unspoken, is rarely simple.
From tense courtroom confrontations to unexpected moments of tenderness, from late-night political reforms to whispers of affection behind palace walls, The Silent Bond tells the story of two powerful souls growing into love at their own pace.
This is a story of loyalty that is tested, forgiveness that takes root, and a bond that deepens in the quiet spaces between duty and desire.
