Bonded by Destiny (The Fae King Duology #3)

A love he can't ignore.
A kingdom on the brink of chaos.
A choice that could change everything.

Garrick learned young that humans can't be trusted—not after being abandoned to whispers and scorn. Now a skilled blacksmith, he fights against his growing feelings for Princess Alette, knowing loving her could shatter what remains of his heart.

But when she returns to the treacherous Human Kingdom, he follows—even though the royal court holds nothing but danger for a half-Orc who dares to love above his station. For Alette, a lifetime of being her family's perfect pawn has left her hollow. Until Garrick arrives, showing her a future where she might choose her own fate.

As their forbidden romance blooms, shadows from Garrick's past emerge bearing dangerous secrets. Within the Human Kingdom's gilded halls, where prejudice runs as deep as noble blood, every stolen moment between them threatens to unravel centuries of carefully maintained "purity." With dark forces and court intrigue closing in, their love could either challenge the kingdom's deepest-held beliefs—or become a tragic reminder of why humans and Orcs are meant to remain apart.

Bonded by Destiny is a closed-door romantasy featuring forbidden love, soul-bonds,court politics, morally gray nobles, "you touched her, you will perish.", tender blacksmith hands, and found family.
