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?

Ezekiel leaned down and kissed her tenderly. "I'm about to leave now. I'll have Asura join you for breakfast," he said.

"Hmm, no. Let Asura stay with Kasper a bit longer. How about Floria? Have her join me for breakfast," Katelina suggested as she sat up in bed.

"But it's dangerous," Ezekiel objected, still concerned.

She cupped his face, pouting playfully, "Goodness, are you underestimating my abilities?" She kissed the tip of his nose and pressed her forehead against his. "I'm Katelina Grimaldi Ward. Let me remind you, I'm no longer weak—I'm back to my strong self."

"But what if she poisons your meal?" Ezekiel grumbled.
