Iron Veil

Bol

Secrets are a currency in the court, and I've spent years paying in blood, wit, and the last shreds of my sanity. A scholar among schemers, I was content to hide behind my books and stay out of the royal spotlight. Until I wasn't. Until he appeared. The prince is a force of nature-danger wrapped in charm, with a smile that could gut you just as quickly as it could lure you in. We were once allies, hidden away in dusty libraries, both lost to ambition's quieter edge. Now, he watches me like I'm a chess piece he plans to move, and the only thing sharper than his words are his secrets. But I have secrets too-ones I didn't ask for and can't run from. Letters hidden in dark corners have thrown me into a dangerous web, one threaded with betrayals, rivalries, and promises best left broken. Now there's Alistair, the prince's brother, a man with even darker edges and a warning that echoes in my mind: the truth will destroy us all. I'm no stranger to games, but this one? This one feels unwinnable. And the question remains: am I the player, the prize... or the pawn they've all underestimated?
