No surprises, no mistakes, and maybe she can salvage the tatters of her life. A prince of no one... Broken in body and spirit, Bel lost everything in a single night-his crown, his freedom, his brother. Kept captive in a mountain castle for ten years, Bel has played the human king's game and bided his time.
