Aurora must keep her disguise intact while the prince closes in.
Aurora serves Prince Xavier as the loyal male knight Auren, a role she performs daily at court. One night she strays onto forbidden palace grounds and witnesses Xavier surrender to his black dragon form, an instinct-driven encounter that binds them before she flees at dawn. Now Xavier searches the kingdom for the mysterious woman, yet every clue points back to the knight beside him. As his investigation tightens, Aurora navigates court duties and mounting suspicion, forced to decide how long she can maintain the deception before her secret destroys everything.
