Nadia had always known she was destined to be a ruler. The first born son of the King, and the only heir to the throne of Cidon, every step she took and every decision she made would matter in the grand scheme of something. Generations of expectations weigh on her, ready to collapse and crush her as soon as she makes a mistake... and trying to live as anyone but a King might just be one. Trapped between who the world sees her as and who Nadia knows herself to be, she turns to the only person she can truly trust. Jasper. He believes there is a way for Nadia to have both- a stable Kingdom and her identity. If only she is willing to delve into a forbidden search for magic. When a traitorous plot threatens to end Nadia's life, she has no choice but to flee into that darkness to avoid her future ending before she can become anything at all; King or Queen.
