    Summary

    They called Helya Greyjoy a monster before she ever learned to speak. Born in blood, torn screaming from the womb of Gwenys Rivers, one of Aegon the Unworthy's Great Bastards, she entered the world already marked by death. Her father, Balric Greyjoy, had prayed for a son: a kraken-and-dragon heir forged for war. Instead, he received a daughter... and decided she would be a weapon all the same.

    But kings do not let weapons remain unchecked. By decree of King Daeron the Good, Helya is torn from the Iron Islands and sent to the Red Keep, thrust into a court that whispers her name like a curse. Among silks and schemes, she finds chaos in Prince Aerion, her partner in carefully crafted mayhem, and something far more dangerous in Prince Daeron.

    Gentle, haunted, and drowning in visions and wine, Daeron is everything Helya is not. She mocks him. Tests him. Pushes him to the dirt and demands he rise again. Yet beneath her cruelty lies a fierce, possessive loyalty. She may break him, but no one else is allowed to try.
