Amidst the clash of desire and betrayal, who will dare to sacrifice everything for the sake of love?

With the ability to foresee the future, Tarah could propel kings to unprecedented heights of success or plunge them into the depths of irreversible failure. But when her kingdom fell, Tarah was forced to offer herself into servitude to her captor in exchange for her brother’s life, becoming a spy in a dangerous game against Ezekiel, the future Dragon King of Ebodia.

Haunted by a prophecy of his doom by a woman’s hand, Prince Ezekiel has meticulously avoided female company throughout his life. However, everything changed when he met Tarah, the new fated Seer of Ebodia. Initially only caring about ruling the world, Ezekiel now finds himself strongly enamored by Tarah, at the risk of losing sight of his own goals.

Caught between safeguarding her brother's life and the growing affection for the domineering ruler, Tarah faces a dilemma. Will she navigate this dangerous path, risking everything for her heart's desires?

"You can't escape me. There's nowhere in this world where you can hide from my reach," Ezekiel whispered, his breath warm against her neck.

Her throat tightened as his lips grazed her skin.

With a firm yet gentle grip on her chin, he tilted her head, urging her to meet his intense gaze, causing her heart to pound in her chest.

"I'm here to make you remember every detail of the agony you've caused me," he declared.

"Agony?!" she protested.

"Yes, your cruel betrayal. Leaving me, breaking your promise..."

Tarah requested for a horse, prompting Ezekiel to signal Elijah to prepare one for her. Once it arrived, the prince then reluctantly glanced at Tarah as he helped her mount her horse.

"I'll be heading out now," she announced with a smile once she was settled on her horse.

"I hope you have a great time with your friend, and..." Ezekiel trailed off, hesitation lingering in his voice.

"Don't be out too late," he finished, having found his words after the awkward silence. "Come back directly to Cordon Castle, and don't make me worried by doing something dangerous."

With that, Tarah nodded and quickly guided her horse away. Meanwhile, Ezekiel was left on his lonesome, watching as she disappeared into the streets.

"Your Highness, are you really letting her go on her own without any guards for her safety?" Cora spoke beside him.

"I can follow her if you wish," Elijah offered.
