a deal struck by rivals. An unending curse. A love capable of bringing down a whole empire.
Elise's forefathers took the throne from the fairy king long ago. Her goal is to comply with all requests in order to guarantee that her family maintains the kingdom for years to come since she is the niece of the cruel present monarch. The problem is that Elise would much rather be a quiet princess at a ball than sneak into gaming rooms with the slaves.
Her uncle soon puts a stop to her careless pranks by pressuring her to enter into marriage proposals. Her terminally sick father will suffer the consequences if she refuses.
Elise, driven by her feeling of obligation, is left in the hands of the attractive and enigmatic Legion Grey, the dowry negotiator. But Legion has more in his hands than just her future. He provokes her into a forbidden passion and fury.
Elise escapes the kingdom with Legion when a coup upends it, only to find that he is the one with more secrets than anybody. Unaware that Elise is about to unleash a terrible curse that Legion has known for as long as he can remember.
Secrets about Legion's brutal history are coming to light, raising concerns about who is really deserving of the throne. When the answers arrive, more lives are at risk, and Elise is left with no option except to sacrifice her own life in order to break Legion's curse and bring magic back to the land, or risk a violent game with the beast within.
