Fantasy world setting with magic and fantasy creatures. The Princess is the youngest of four sisters and the family’s most protected, underestimated member. Arwen, the responsible eldest twin, distrusts Soren’s vampire nature and watches him closely, though she gradually respects his discipline and devotion. Arya, the rebellious twin, enjoys provoking him and openly teases the Princess about their chemistry, convinced he would burn the world to keep her safe. Narenna is the most wary of his emotional influence over her sister, but recognizes his feelings are genuine long before either of them admits it

I request reassignment he said The northern border. Effective immediately
Arwen’s gaze turned glacial Your princess is not here to hear this
That is why I came now
Arya scoffed Coward
Narenna said nothing, but her silence cut sharper than either sister’s anger
Soren’s hand found the scar along his jaw
The decision is mine Soren said
By dawn, the ritual had ended. Silver dust still clung to the Princess’s hair when she found Soren’s chambers empty—his post abandoned, his oath-chain resting on the table, and not one word explaining why
Days after he left, she falls into a silver-lit, unresponsive sleep known as Lunar Stillness
