While his only desire is to keep himself alive, the king and queen have other infiltrate the court of Adrethia, married to a woman who is more weapon than wife.
To Mira, Eric is simply her way in—the key to acquiring Adrethian secrets, and to reuniting her with the family she lost. To Eric, Mira is the blade at his throat that sleeps in his bed—the death of him as soon as his own usefulness runs out.
