He was the enemy king.
She was the defeated general.

He ruled with frost in his veins and silence in his eyes.
She commanded battlefields with wildfire in her lungs and defiance in every breath.

He waged a war for the sake of his kingdom.
She surrendered to save hers.

Their worlds stood on opposite ends of a bloodstained map.

And then as fate would have it, a single incident and her life and honour are in balance. The twists and turns that follow lead to marriage.

They vow to guard their hearts.
No weakness. No attachment. No surrender beyond the vows forced upon them.

Yet proximity is its own battlefield. Shared corridors. Shared councils. Shared silences that stretch too long.
Secrets begin to surface. Truths buried beneath the war refuse to stay hidden. And the line between enemy and ally blurs with every stolen glance.

And when the king who never bent begins to fall, he does not fall carefully. He falls completely.
