The bloodthirsty King demands a sacrifice: one bride per year, found lifeless in her marital bed by morning's light. Amidst the undulating waves of golden sand dunes, the kingdom of Elamaria has been haunted by this sinister tradition for the last decade. One young woman, Amara, dares to defy fate.
Stepping into her sister's role as the king's chosen bride, she enters a world of treachery and deceit. But as the night unfolds, Amara discovers a chilling truth-there is a danger lurking within the castle walls, more deadly than the Crimson King himself.
With time slipping away and where every sunrise might be her last, Amara must unravel the secrets shrouded in darkness. Will she survive to see another dawn and expose the true face of evil that haunts the realm?
In this captivating tale of love, courage, and betrayal, Amara finds herself falling for the one man she swore to kill-her husband, the murderous king who would sooner see her dead than let her live to see another day. Or...would he?
