Two swords in one scabbard.. Either they break each other, or they tear the world apart."
When ICE and fire are forced to meet in one decade, a silent war rages behind the walls of the Empire. Scarlett, the Duke's unbending daughter, finds herself bound by an eternal covenant with the man who represents everything she abhors: Damien de Blackwood. A Duke who possesses a heart of stone and an eye that sees humans as mere chess stones.
An engagement that began with sharp words, and weekly meetings imposed by law to be an arena for settling old scores. Behind closed doors, there are no promises of love, there are silk-covered blades, dubious agreements, pride that prevents even breaths from coming together.
