Death Couldn't Tear Us Apart

The Story

A brutal execution shatters Lia’s happy life with Lucien, Captain of the Royal Knights, when Princess Mona kills the humble flower girl and displays her body on the city wall. Forced into submission, Lucien swears loyalty to the princess while shedding no tears. As a spirit, Lia watches this betrayal and mistakes him for a power-hungry traitor. Mona believes she has secured his devotion, but the couple soon uncovers a dangerous secret. Lucien is the Empire’s most powerful necromancer. His outward compliance is merely a calculated ruse. The princess’s victory is an illusion, and the true nature of Lucien’s allegiance remains hidden beneath his public display of obedience.
