Throne of Flames
Where kings kneel to a single man, King Kael Aruzi sits as the iron-handed king of fifty-seven realms. He's feared and respected, and his name with fear. Kael's heart belonged to Seraya his first queen, a orphan with grace who could soothe his rage. Yet, her stubborn womb puts shadows on their union. Pushed by laws and fellow kings, Kael takes another wife-and another, and another, with each giving birth to daughters but none to a boy. Yet, his heart never relinquishes Seraya. But envy's a snake in a silk glove. Eshara, Kael's youngest and deadliest wife, spins a poisoned plot to kill Seraya. A wine piked with drugs. A planned betrayal. A dead guard. In a torrent of rage, Kael banishes Seraya into darkness-to strip her of a crown, to chain her below a palace she once reigned over, to condemn her to a life of agonies. While Seraya is beaten, starved, and scorned, the wives gain power. Eshara becomes heavy with child-with Kael's long-awaited heir. But even as his womb might bear his legacy, Kael's heart remains tormented by the woman he once cherished. The whispers spread. The allegiances come undone. And Seraya-abused but undefeated-conspires against not vengeance, but truth. In a palace where lies bloom like roses and power is sharpened like a blade, Seraya's fall is only the beginning. A storm is rising. And when it breaks, thrones will burn, masks will shatter, and the fire she once knelt before. will be hers to command.
