House of Blood and Whispers - E-book - ePub

Kidnapping Cahki might have been the worst mistake of Emperor Min's life. Cahki I was kidnapped and brought south across the seas to warm Emperor Min's bed. I may be small, but inside of me live the strength and ferocity of a fjord dragon. When the prince offers me a way back to freedom, I take it. Even if it means marrying him, a stranger and an enemy. I can always kill him if things go awry. One thing is certain: I'll be a slave to no one! Sung-jin I'm the sole heir to the throne of the Southern Kingdom, the one thing that keeps me alive.
Alive but not unharmed. My father is a believer in ruling by fear, and that applies even to me. I have the scars to prove it. The white-haired woman my father kidnapped could be the answer to all my prayers. As long as she doesn't kill me first. No matter what, I will free my people from my father's cruelty or die trying. A people who lives in fear. A court that hates its ruler. A cruel emperor with unsavory appetites and no morals.
When Prince Sung-jin and his new wife, Cahki set out to rescue the kingdom and its people, the odds are not on their side. But they are still willing to give it a try. There are only two choices: win or die!
