The Crown’s Obsession

In Veynar, illegitimate daughters are veiled by law.

 Asharin Dyvarin has worn one since birth.

When her father offers her to the crown, the king rejects her without ever lifting the veil that hides her face. Instead, Asharin is traded to Prince Colsar, the king’s colder, more dangerous brother, and forced into a political marriage neither of them wants. She expects to remain invisible in her new life at court, another quiet solution to a political problem.

Until the veil is lifted.

Only then does the court realize it has made a catastrophic mistake.

Once Asharin is revealed, the balance of the palace begins to unravel. Her new husband’s hostility shifts into something far more unsettling, while the king who once rejected her starts watching her far too closely. Soon, curiosity twists into a volatile obsession that threatens to tear the court apart.

Surrounded by rivalries, secrets, and deadly intrigue, Asharin finds herself trapped in a royal court ruled by creatures who wear crowns but are far from human. As tensions within the palace rise, something darker begins to stir beyond its walls, where soul-eating Threns gather in the forests as the shadow of war spreads across the kingdom.

The woman who was meant to remain hidden may become the most dangerous thing the court has ever seen.

In this court, “touch her and die” is more than just a metaphor.

A dark romantasy featuring forced marriage, enemies-to-lovers tension, a dangerous love triangle, possessive obsession, and a royal court where power is anything but human.
