The Vow

Telemachus sailed to Sparta seeking only news of his father, who'd been lost for ten long years across the wine-dark sea. He left his home a lonely, uncertain boy and found something far greater than he had ever dared to hope for: Calista of Sparta. Gentle, wise, and steadfast, she saw his worth before he had earned it and loved him before he had anything to give.

Bound by a crimson cord and a vow sworn at dawn, he returns to face the dangers waiting for him in Ithaca - suitors, chaos, and a fate he never asked for. But now he fights not just for his father or his throne.
He fights to get back to her.

While he braves every storm and shadow, Calista waits - turning away suitors, defying expectations, holding fast to her faith and a goddess's sign. What began as a search for one man has become a journey back to the love of his life. And when at last he stands before her once more, he brings home not just the king he sought... but the heart he found along the way.
