Like a princess in a fairytale, I’ve been kidnapped.

My tower is an abandoned castle, my villain the same man who once vowed to give his life for mine.

Such a pretty lie.

The boy I remember from my youth is now the king of my nightmares—damaged, cruel, with a heart like ice.

Surrender is not an option.

If it’s a battle he wants, then I’ll give him a war.

He’ll kneel for me.
Break for me.

And if it’s mercy he seeks, he’ll soon learn that queens do not bend for traitors…

Not even if they beg.
