Inora has never known silence-not when every unguarded thought crashes against her mind like breaking waves. Mute by birth but gifted with psychic abilities, she has become the Empire's most valuable interrogation tool, unraveling secrets from enemy minds while sacrificing herself.

Trapped within the keep's walls and feared by those she serves, Inora's only anchor is Thornmail-the knight who both protects and imprisons her, whose thoughts remain mercifully closed to her intrusion. But when a moment of curiosity with a starving rat awakens something darker in her abilities, Inora discovers that her power is far more dangerous-and addictive-than anyone realized.

Her desperate escape leads her deep into the keep's frozen dungeons, where a mysterious woman hangs in chains, radiating an unnatural cold and an unbreakable will. But as Inora attempts a rescue that could doom them both, she faces a terrible truth: the very person she trusted most may be the one standing between her and freedom.

In the kingdom of Elarion, where loyalty is law and love is treason, Princess Thorn lives behind walls of duty and expectation. Her golden hair and mismatched eyes - one blue, one green - are said to be a sign of the gods' favor. Yet, all the divine blessings in the world can't protect her from the loneliness of her crown. Colby, the Knight's Grand Master, has sworn his life to the royal family - trained to protect, not to feel. With dark brown hair that falls into his piercing blue eyes, he's known for his discipline, his silence, and his sword. But when he's assigned to train the princess in self-defense after an assassination attempt, cracks begin to form in his armor. Between stolen glances in moonlit courtyards and whispered confessions in the shadows of the castle, a forbidden love blooms - one that could cost them both their lives. When a coup brews within the walls of Elarion, Thorn must choose: the kingdom that binds her... or the knight who sets her free.

In a kingdom where curses are more than mere fairy tales, an ancient castle stands hidden behind walls of dark thorns, forgotten by all but the bravest and the most foolish. For within those shadowed halls slumbers a prince cursed by his own heart's betrayal. Once a ruler feared for his power and beauty, he now lies in a spellbound sleep, imprisoned by a vengeful sorceress who demanded a price for his cruelty: eternal rest, unless someone awakens him and binds their fate to his. Mira has never believed in fairy tales. Life in her village is one of harsh reality, where survival depends on wit and willpower. But when her family's future hangs in the balance, she's driven to the one place her people have always feared. Rumors of a sleeping prince and a curse that can be broken are all she has to go on, yet desperation leaves her no choice. But awakening the prince sets a far greater plan in motion, and the darkness she thought she'd face is only the beginning. Now, bound to a prince whose shadows dance with danger and desire, Mira must learn to navigate a world of magic, betrayal, and a fate that pulls them both toward something neither can escape. The only question is, who will break first-the girl with fire in her veins or the prince whose heart has long since turned to stone?
