Forged In Obedience

By: Steele, Robert

In the shadow of the Welsh border, where French raiders prowl and the Church watches for sin, Sir Walter Dale holds the power of life and death over the men who serve him. When the blacksmith's son, Stephen Smith, comes to settle his dead father's crippling debt, Walter refuses coin or labor. He demands something far more dangerous: Stephen's complete obedience, and submission of both his body and will, paid in secret under the cover of night.

Stephen is twenty-three, proud, and has never desired a man. Yet this battle-hardened knight tall, scarred, and merciless has awakened a hunger he cannot name and cannot refuse. Bound by a sacred vassal's oath, Stephen finds himself kneeling in the forge, in the solar, and in the dark stables, surrendering to a man who now owns him completely.

As raids threaten the border and the baron pressures Walter to marry for alliance, their stolen nights grow more intense and more reckless. One wrong word, one careless glance, and both men will hang. But the debt was never just about silver, and the oath was never just about obedience.

Now, with Walter's wedding looming, they face an impossible choice: honor the law and lose each other... or risk everything for a love that could burn them both.

A sweeping, forbidden medieval m/m romance of power, surrender, and desperate longing. For readers who crave raw emotion, intense dominance, and a love that defies the rules of feudal England.
