18+ Rated. "This is forbidden," Grayson says softly, stepping back. "You're a princess and I'm a knight," he continues, voice strained with a hint of regret. "Before that...you were once my best friend and first love," I whisper, stepping closer. I reached out gently, my hands trembling as I lift his face to meet my gaze. "It's all in the past," His jaw tightens, eyes shutting briefly, then slowly opening to reveal a flicker of pain buried beneath his composure. "Is it?" I press softly, leaning in closer. He says nothing for a long moment, then releases a deep shaky breath. "You're one person I desire the most, yet it's forbidden." He admits.

A silent war had already begun, and it wasn't just the war within my heart- a clash of loyalties, love and a forbidden desire. It was a war that threatened to destroy us all. Was I going to make the right choice? Could I possibly let go of a man I had loved since I was a kid again? Or shall I forsake this burning desire and carry on with my duty? But before I could even make a choice.... The world I was desperately trying to protect shattered right before my eyes.
