The Kingdom of Elaria stretched beneath a sky painted with endless violet clouds, where magic whispered through the cobblestone streets and royalty ruled with both grace and fear. Princess Elara, the youngest of the royal line, was beloved for her beauty and kindness—but behind the delicate crown she wore lay a restless heart. She longed not for the ballroom, nor the tedious court ceremonies, but for the thrill of a life lived beyond palace walls.
In the same kingdom, Commander Kaelin led the royal guard, her loyalty unshakable and her courage unmatched. She had fought in countless battles, her blade striking down enemies of the realm without hesitation—but even she could not guard her heart from the unexpected.
It was on the eve of the summer solstice, beneath the crimson glow of twin moons, that fate drew them together. And when a threat from a neighboring kingdom forced Elara into the battlefield, the lines between duty and desire would blur, igniting a passion that neither crown nor sword could control.
