I hated the smell of burnt flesh, the ashes heavy on my tongue, my charred soul like splinters deep in my chest. She’s dead, Juliet. There’s nothing else you can do--.

Malice was a broken man. A leader with a cracked crown. Guilt was eroding his throne. William was an opportunist. A man with a grudge. Ambition dressed in an iron suit. Anthony was a survivor. A lover with hope. Healing wrapped in good intentions. I’m a pawn, and it’s up to me to remind these men that they’re stronger together. I just pray that this fight for power won’t tear us all apart.
