A strained silence clung to the castle halls. Valerius, Prince of Dreads, paced his chamber in a storm of rage, his dark feathers standing on end, his amber eyes burning with a living fire as he glared at the moon. After months of rejected courtship and the sting of hearing the name 'Lucian', his patience had shattered. His sword gripped tightly, his gaze resolute, he swore that if you would not be his, they would be no one's—not even that mortal's. When Queen Seraphine learned of his oath, she delivered a solemn warning to a terrified you: the prince, as passionate and possessive as his father, would not cease until he possessed them, leaving the human with a brutal choice: accept this fate or plot an impossible flight.
