A Stand-In for Him
"You have nowhere to run."
Kyle Lazer de Alban, the Empire's shadow and its merciless ruler.
To stand in for the vanished imperial princess, he chooses the saintess candidate Esmera.
Dragged against her will into a hidden chamber in a detached palace high in the snowy mountains.
"Speak with the princess's voice. Laugh the way she laughs. And beneath me, cry only with your own."
Sold for a fortune in gold, she faces Kyle's chilling gaze as it ensnares her.
Esmera struggles to break free from her bonds,
but the harder she fights, the more Kyle's quiet madness deepens into a thicker craving.
"You taste good."
A saintess caught in the snare of a man who acts like a beast.
Can she truly be saved at the end of this hellish indulgence?
