A forced marriage. A hidden agenda. A hero ordered to betray his own brotherhood.

Creston de Royans—known inside the legendary Blackchurch Guild as The Avenger—is a ruthless warrior and elite trainer in the darkest arts of medieval warfare. Loyalty is everything. Brotherhood is sacred.
Then his powerful older brother orders him to marry.
The bride? A beautiful, guarded noblewoman still mourning the man who chose the priesthood over her.

Lady Ophelia de Camville never wanted another husband. Especially not a cold, dangerously controlled Blackchurch warrior. But refusal is not an option. Her powerful grandfather—leader of the formidable Septem Ports Alliance—has arranged the match for one reason:

To use Creston.
Because the Alliance stands in quiet opposition to Triton’s Hellions—fierce familial allies of Blackchurch—and once the vows are spoken, Creston becomes the perfect weapon to fracture the Guild from within.

Now trapped in a high-stakes marriage of convenience, Creston must choose:
Betray the brotherhood that made him…
Or protect the wife he was meant to manipulate.

But Ophelia is no pawn. She has secrets of her own. And what begins as strategy ignites into dangerous obsession.
In a world of political intrigue, shifting alliances, and forbidden passion, love is the greatest risk of all.

And one wrong move could destroy them both.
