In a world where kingdoms are won in a game, believing that everyone will follow the rules is hazardous...
A powerless daughter of a powerful king. A swordsman who doesn't serve anyone. An enchanter for whom pride is everything.
"You will look beautiful in a diadem… and a leash."
When Lannahi discovers that she is a pawn in the perfidious plan of the man she once loved, she has only one option—in order to save her family, she must take part in the Royal Game.
But no one can win alone.
Lannahi has to duel to take power, but she will need allies to retain it. The interest she sees in the wolfish eyes of a recognized warrior gives her hope, though she doesn't lower her guard. The man has connections with powerful rulers from the region where lies the city she intends to conquer. She doesn't know where his loyalty truly belongs, but she knows that the love of a fae usually has fangs.
"That he knew one of her weaknesses disturbed her. That he wanted to help her overcome it touched her. The thought that he might wish to gain her trust only to betray it later paralyzed her."
The Game starts.
Losing means slavery.
Losing means death.
"You will have to be cruel, Lannahi."
"I know."
For the fae there is no good or evil, only pride and fear.
*** This is a standalone romantasy novel featuring fae, their wicked games and a heroine determined to play on her own terms. The book contains mature themes and strong language. ***
