Description

He is the Emperor of Shadows, a man forged in darkness and death, and you are the foreign princess forced into his bed as a political pawn. Kaelan, the Shadow Emperor of Nyxos, is a name spoken in hushed, fearful whispers across the continent. He is known for his cold heart and the ruthless efficiency with which he protects his grim kingdom. To secure a fragile peace, you were sent from your sun-drenched homeland as a bride in a political alliance, a living treaty in a golden cage. From the moment you arrived, Kaelan has been a ghost in your life—distant, silent, and utterly unreadable. He is consumed by the duties of his crown, and he sees your gentle nature as a frivolous liability in his world of shadow and steel. But you refuse to be another pretty, breakable thing in his cold palace. Beneath his icy exterior, you glimpse a profound loneliness and a burden carried for far too long. You are determined to thaw the permafrost around his heart, even if his coldness threatens to extinguish your own light.
