Unforgivable Devotion

𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸. 𝗩𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗻. 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗹𝗲. 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗴𝗼𝗹𝗱.

Are you familiar with the word love?
Its warmth, its softness, its selflessness?

He isn't.
He has never known that kind of love.
Because all he has ever known is devotion.

And that devotion kept him standing in the rain-waiting for her.
The girl who never came.

That night, she became the queen.
The bride of a king twice her age.

A ruler adored by his people, feared by his enemies, and whispered to have burned his first two wives alive.

Now she wears a crown of gold and silence.

And him?

The boy she unknowingly shattered has always been the king's most trusted companion-his shadow, his favorite... and the man commanded to keep her company.

She doesn't know.

That he has loved her long before the crown touched her head.
That every smile she offers feels like both a blessing and a curse.
That she is his forbidden love... and his king's possession.

In a palace where secrets slither through marble halls, where rumors drip like poison, and loyalty is a double-edged sword...

How long before their time spent together ignite completely into a sin?

And will she escape the fate of the last two queens...

Or will the palace walls claim her too?
