King told me to protect her.
Not touch her.
Not want her.
Definitely not love her.

But from the second she came back, I knew that plan was dead.

Myzari Hamilton walks like she’s already survived the fire.
Talks like she doesn’t care if you burn.
She came back looking for answers—but the streets are louder than the truth.

She thinks I’m just another one of her father’s soldier.
Another quiet shadow built to serve the man she’s hated her whole life.
But I was never just his weapon.

And she was never supposed to be a target.

Now the city’s shifting.
Lines are being crossed.
Blood is being spilled.

I’ve taken lives for less.
But this is different.

I made a vow—
To protect her name.
To silence every threat.
To put my body between her and anything that means her harm.
And if it comes to it?

I’ll protect her with my hands, my name, and my gun—
and I’ll bury the whole f*cking city before I let my queen bleed for it.
