In a kingdom blanketed by frost and secrets, Evelyn Winterrose is the girl with fire in her eyes and a heart far too loyal. Every night, she watches the flicker of a lantern in her childhood friend Aaron Blackthorn’s window—an unspoken promise that he’s made it home safe.

Aaron is no longer just the boy next door; he's a Royal Knight now, a man bearing invisible scars from battles fought both on and off the field. But to Evelyn, he's still the boy behind the blade—the one who calls her Princesa with a smile that makes her forget how cold the world can be.

Their bond is quiet but unbreakable, forged in whispers through shuttered windows and steps shared in moonlit gardens. Even when Evelyn reminds him, “I’m no princess,” Aaron simply replies, “yes,You’re something better.”

But in a land where titles mean power and bloodlines carry destiny, loving each other might be the most dangerous thing of all.
