What's a king without his queen when he's chained to his kingdom and it feels more like a prison? Tommy Delucia will do anything to keep the woman he loves safe. Even give her up as he turns into the monster he needs to be to keep his kingdom intact. There's a war coming with old enemies seeking vengeance. They know the quickest way to bring a Delucia to his knees is to cut out his heart and make him watch while it bleeds dry. Distance won't keep Naila safe. Tommy's enemies view her as a pawn in this war, one they will use to expose his weaknesses. They won't stop till the streets are flooded in Delucia blood. What they don't know is Naila's no pawn and Tommy can't wait to serve their severed heads to his queen.
