In a realm where magic binds Queens to Kings and thrones are fed with blood, one woman's secret is both a weapon... and a curse. Lilly has spent her life in hiding - not from enemies, but from destiny itself. Born of two vanished royal bloodlines, she carries the power to command the realm's magic - and with it, the crown. But Queens in this world are not sovereigns. They are bound. Owned. Used. And she has sworn she will never belong to anyone. But when the final King is found, the old laws awaken. Every unwed royal woman is summoned to the palace - and Lilly, despite every ward and whispered lie, cannot escape the call. There, in a court ruled by nine dangerous men - ruthless, territorial, and inescapably drawn to her - her secret begins to unravel. The Kings want a Queen. The realm demands it. And something far darker is clawing through the cracks - demons, war, and men who would use her like a blade and break her to wield it. But Lilly is not the girl they expected. She is not soft. Not willing. And if she must wear a crown, it will be on her terms - forged in blood, bonded by magic, and carved from the ruin of anyone who thought to master her. Some bonds are chosen. Some are stolen. Hers will be earned in fire, and answered in kind. A dark fantasy romance steeped in obsession, forbidden magic, violent devotion, and a heroine who stops running - and starts ruling.
