Produktbeschreibung
In The Whispered Promise, the enthralling first novella of "The Defiant Prince series", the first series of "The Sundered Realm Chronicles", the capital is a vipers' nest of political ambition, and eighteen-year-old Prince Alaric, the sole heir, is its most prominent prisoner. Bound by duty to an icy, traditionalist father and facing relentless pressure to marry for political gain, Alaric's world is a carefully orchestrated performance until he finds an unexpected connection with Elias, a low-ranking but fiercely loyal soldier. Their forbidden love, a silent vow whispered in the shadows of the castle, is a radical defiance of King Theron's rigid laws and the church's unforgiving condemnation. When their secret is brutally exposed by Lord Valerius, a cunning political rival, Alaric is forced into a desperate confrontation that threatens his crown and Elias's life. The kingdom's salvation from a northern invasion provides a temporary reprieve, and Alaric is granted a "permanent" command at the desolate, strategic Serpent's Head Castle-a banishment disguised as a military necessity. But what the King intends as an exile, Alaric and Elias see as a sanctuary. On the edge of the world, far from the King's hateful gaze and the court's treacherous whispers, they plan to build a new life, a place where competence and loyalty matter more than birthright, and where their love can finally be free. The Whispered Promise sets the stage for an epic saga of political intrigue, military action, and the enduring power of forbidden love, as a defiant prince and his soldier fight not just for survival, but for the right to an authentic life on their own terms.
