The Stone Garden Prince

The Story

Prince Theron enters the Stone Garden with a single directive: destroy the cursed monster that haunts the kingdom. The target is a blindfolded man with serpent hair, a figure the palace describes as cold, dangerous, and untrustworthy. Yet this stranger, Marius, defies his reputation by saving children the royal court attempted to erase. Theron soon uncovers a shocking truth. The temple has marked him for death, and Marius may actually be the rightful heir to the throne. This revelation shatters Theron's mission. A stolen crown and a buried prince expose a kingdom built entirely on lies. Theron faces a brutal choice between the family that raised him and the man he was ordered to hunt. Simultaneously, Marius must decide whether to become the monster they invented or reclaim the palace that abandoned him. In the Stone Garden, love is forbidden and loyalty proves deadly. The real curse is not a supernatural force, but the truth itself.
