Revenge is the game - But who's playing who? Flynn Bear I've spent my life in a vine-veiled tower, hidden from the kingdom I'm meant to inherit. They call it protection. I call it a prison.

She doesn't know who I am. I don't plan on telling her Instead, I give myself a fake name and guide her toward dead ends, scattering her trail to keep my father beyond reach. Yet mile by mile, I see fractures in the truths I've been taught... and wonder if I'm protecting the right thing. Deana Douglas The king murdered my father.
