The Hidden Queen

By Laura Mothersill

The most important job of the queen is to provide an heir. It was the one duty she was unable to fulfill. Until now.

Queen Sera's relief at carrying an heir is short lived when her husband's first demand upon confirmation is that she travel through the dangerous mountains to the oracles in the hope they will confirm the baby is a boy. Sera soon uncovers the plot to end the child's life if it is a girl, as King Zuse refuses to allow a female to inherit his throne.

Filled with terror and seeing no way to escape, Sera is pushed into an oracle's home - just to find her cold brother-in-law waiting for her. Confusion soon makes way for hope when he gives her the option to flee.

Secreted away into the human realm to protect her unborn daughter, Sera quickly finds the one thing she lacked as a queen - the feeling of safety.

Brev, loyal and eager to please his prince, is sent as a guard to the human realm determined to keep the former Light queen safe. As he gets to know the enigma that was once an ornament to his enemy, Brev finds himself in danger of breaking his greatest command - do not fall for his charge.
