Pagkalipas ng tatlong taon ay nagbalik siya, at narinig ko siyang pinag-uusapan ang tungkol sa dovorce. Wala siyang sinabi kahit na matapos niyang makuha ang aking pagkabirhen bago siya umalis. Sobrang sakit ng naramdaman ko. Hindi niya ako binigyan ng pagkakataong maging mabuting asawa para sa kanya, pero gusto niya pa rin akong hiwalayan. Hindi dahil mahal ko siya, kundi dahil inakala kong naging tapat ako sa kanya habang siya naman ay nagpakasaya kasama ang kanyang kalaguyo. Ngunit nagawa pa niyang magreklamo na parang ako ang sumakal sa kanya. Galit na galit ako. Sisiguraduhin kong mahihirapan sila ng kanyang kalaguyo na makumbinsi ako sa diborsyo. Pero bakit parang iba ang ikinikilos niya? Bakit nakakaramdam ako ng pagkasabik sa tuwing magkakadikit kami?

The kingdom of Valdris has survived a thousand years through blood and fear, ruled by kings who never flinched and never forgave. Corvin, the current ruler, is no different. He is beautiful in a dangerous way, undefeated in battle, and feared by every soul who speaks his name. He has never wanted anything he could not take. Until the spy. On the eve of his coronation anniversary, a fox is discovered inside the inner palace. It shifts into a young man named Elowen, a shifter from the eastern wildlands who carries ancient magic and a smile sharp enough to cut. By every law, he should be executed. Instead, Corvin makes a shocking decision and claims the spy as his personal “pet,” a living trophy meant to remind the world of his power. Elowen, however, did not end up in the palace by accident. He was sent to infiltrate Corvin’s court, earn the king’s trust, and destroy him from within. What he did not anticipate was the man beneath the crown. Corvin is the one person who sees through his lies, challenges him in unexpected ways, and becomes difficult to resist. As influence shifts and their loyalties blur, desire turns into a weapon neither man can fully control. Corvin’s Crown Sight cannot read Elowen’s heart, and Elowen cannot decide whether the king is his target or greatest weakness. War brews at the borders, treachery spreads within the palace walls, and their growing connection becomes the most dangerous secret in Valdris. If Corvin’s court uncovers the truth, he could lose his throne. If Elowen’s people discover his feelings for the man he was sent to kill, he may never escape alive. Their bond threatens the kingdom, and the decision they face could set Valdris on fire.
