"I... don't need protection," I whisper, though my pulse betrays me. "Yet you stand here. Too close. Too tempting," he murmurs, gaze sharp, unreadable. "I don't want just protection," I breathe. "...I want you." He freezes, tension crackling between us. "This cannot happen," he says, each word a war between duty and desire. ⋯ ♛ ⋯ 𝑯𝒆 𝒘𝒂𝒔 𝒔𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒏 𝒕𝒐 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒕𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒉𝒆𝒓, 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒉𝒆𝒓. One assassination attempt changes everything. The palace of 𝑰𝒔𝒉𝒗𝒂𝒓𝒂, golden halls and marble corridors, has always been a place of duty, tradition, and expectation-but now it's a trap.
 Princess 𝑨𝒏𝒗𝒊𝒌𝒂 𝑫𝒆𝒗𝒓𝒂𝒋 was born to command, raised to rule, admired, envied... and yet suddenly, nothing feels safe. Forced under constant protection, she is assigned a personal bodyguard-silent, controlled, and dangerously unreadable. 𝑨𝒅𝒗𝒂𝒊𝒕 𝑲𝒂𝒖𝒍 knows his place, obeys every rule, stays unshakable... until desire makes him falter. With every stolen glance and each step closer, desire grows where there should be only duty, and amid palace secrets and whispered betrayals, Anvika finds herself drawn to him-and craving more than she should. When loyalty is tested and control slips away, how far will they go for what they cannot resist? Will they survive the danger within the palace walls... or will the greatest threat be the fire between them? ⋯ ♛ ⋯ ʀᴏʏᴀʟ ʀᴏᴍᴀɴᴄᴇ. ʜɪsᴛᴏʀɪᴄᴀʟ ᴅʀᴀᴍᴀ. ᴅᴜᴛʏ ᴠs ᴅᴇsɪʀᴇ. ᴀ ᴄʟᴀꜱʜ ᴏꜰ ᴘᴏᴡᴇʀ ᴀɴᴅ ᴘᴀꜱꜱɪᴏɴ.
