In a realm of four kingdoms, two were on the verge of war. Prince Eirik, the fourth prince of Valeidio, a Ferre whose beauty could rival the gods, was thrust into a marriage alliance with Prince Kaelix, the strong and proud heir of Zephyros.

Both princes were determined to fight against the fate that had been forced on them. Eirik resented being used as a pawn, while Kaelix saw the alliance as a threat to his freedom. As they clashed in a battle of wills, their encounters became a constant push and pull of resistance and pride.

But as the pressures of duty mounted, the lines between obligation and desire began to blur. In their struggle against their forced union, they found themselves drawn toward each other in ways they never expected.

Would their bond become a weapon against the war or would their kingdoms' rivalries destroy any chance of love before it could take root?

A Royal Obligation

The grand halls of the Zephyros palace were alive with activity. Servants rushed past one another, carrying bolts of silk and delicate flowers imported from the farthest reaches of the realm.

The palace had become a frenzy of preparations, all under the watchful eye of Queen Elena. Every detail had to be perfect, not just for the union of two kingdoms but for the event that would be remembered for generations.

Queen Elena stood in the middle of the chaos, her sapphire gown shimmering under the light as she directed every move with a firm yet graceful hand.

Her eyes sparkled with enthusiasm as she oversaw the decorators and designers. She was thrilled. Her son Kaelix was finally getting married, and not just to anyone, he was marrying Eirik, the most beautiful man in the entire four kingdoms.
