He wanted the truth. He found it in her.
She wanted freedom. She found it with him.

This is a novel, a prequel of sorts, that runs alongside my main series, Defying Equilibrium. If you haven't read Defying Equilibrium you can still enjoy this story, but if you want the full picture I would recommend it. This story explores the real story behind the Tale of Raphael and Desdemona, which you can find in the Lore Compendium (also on my profile).
But let me say one thing – this is a story of power, love, betrayal and war. Do not expect a happy end.
Noor, a dancer in the Royal Court of the Al-Yauzhan Empire wants nothing more than to pay off her debts and lead a nice, simple life-but a chance encounter with the crown prince and his brother brings her into the dangerous world of court politics. As Noor and the princes investigate their uncle and cousin's possible treason, she grows closer to the crown prince, but in order to save the kingdom and the person she loves, Noor will have to risk everything...
