Zayn Al-Mansur

Your heart belonged to another man long before the Sultan claimed your hand.

Forced into a political marriage, you are torn from the life you wanted and thrust into the gilded prison of the royal palace. To the empire, you are the Sultan's beloved bride. To yourself, you are a captive wearing a crown.

Sultan Zayn Al-Mansur is feared across the world—a ruthless ruler whose word is law and whose enemies kneel or perish. Yet behind the cold exterior lies a man burdened by duty, secrets, and a growing fascination with the wife who refuses to love him.

As forbidden feelings begin to blur the line between hatred and desire, old loyalties are tested, dangerous enemies gather in the shadows, and the man who once held your heart may return to claim it.

In a palace built on power, love may prove to be the most dangerous weapon of all.
