Severin Scarlett. A name feared across the land for unspeakable crimes.
And when they say unspeakable, they mean unknown. In times when insanity means death, those who are different must stay incognito. But Severin had intended to change that when she escaped, after all insanity isn't a crime. She just went about it in the wrong way. Severin may know she's not entirely insane, but others do not.
And when those others happen to be the King, who thinks Severin is a spark that needs to be extinguished, wreaking havoc across the land to enhance her killer reputation may not be the best idea.
Desperate and concerned, the King sees a way to kill two birds with one stone. A spoiled heir and a maniac criminal.
Heir Prince Orlando had only one option, find the menace, Scarlett, who threatens the safety of his future kingdom, and retain his crown, while simultaneously proving to his father wrong. Thrown into the world, with no resources and disguised as a status-less Royal guard, he must find and arrest Severin Scarlet, before he has no Kingdom to rule.
Easier said than done. 10 years later and Orlando is still on the hunt and Severin is still on her rampage of revenge.
But Karma, the age-old hag, can wait only so long before taking the matter into her own hands.
An ancient lie, a seemingly accidental crossing of paths, and two hidden goals, Severin and Orlando must figure out what's real, what's not and who the real enemy is.
Some secrets were meant to stay hidden, while others need to be discovered.
