Spiegel's Oath

Pristine_Rubens
In a world where women rule and truth is bound by deadly oaths, power is never without a price. Damian Drakos, a Count who stands where no man should, walks a careful line between authority and isolation. With war on the horizon, he searches for a legendary blacksmith whose weapons are said to rival kingdoms—yet no one has ever seen their face. Instead, he finds her. Charu Thorne is known across cities as a brilliant, eccentric painter—elusive, sharp-tongued, and impossible to predict. She drifts through high society on her own terms, avoiding power, avoiding expectations… and hiding far more than she lets the world see. What begins as a chance encounter turns into something deeper—an understanding neither of them resists. In public, they stand as opponents. In private, they are anything but. But as Damian draws closer to the truth he seeks, the line between his search and his desire begins to blur. Because some secrets are built to survive empires. And some loves are dangerous precisely because they are honest.
