Annalise has always been told one thing. Submit to the higher power.

War has broken out between man and beast. A war that Annalise has managed to stay out of for most of her life. That is until she comes across an intimidating stranger. Not a man, but a beast. and not just any beast.

The King.

Now taken against her wishes, Annalise must do everything in her power to survive the darkness of the palace and the lustful gaze of the king without a heart. Even if it means she must submit.
