The Mapmaker's Spell

A century of brutal war was supposed to end with a peace treaty, but High Lady Lyra Vane, the king's most lethal weapon, is ordered to assassinate Prince Kaelen, heir to the enemy Shadow-born Dominion. Trained to kill without question, Lyra finds her mission derailed when an unknown assassin targets her instead, forcing Kaelen to save her. The instant their hands touch, an ancient, forbidden bond ignites between them, revealing them as Fated Mates. Now branded a traitor by the king she served, Lyra must flee with the very man she was sent to murder, as their unexpected union threatens to unravel not just a fragile peace, but the very fabric of their warring kingdoms. But in a world steeped in ancient prophecies and hidden agendas, is their bond a curse, or the only hope for survival?
