The Romanov name was meant to be a shield. Instead, it put a crosshair on Nikolai’s back.
After everything they survived, Nikolai finally has what he never thought possible: a life with Zhenya where he feels safe, loved, and whole. But in Zhenya’s world, peace is a temporary illusion.
When a new threat within the family turns Nikolai into a leverage point against Zhenya, buried secrets and old trauma resurface, threatening to tear apart the life they’ve built.
As the net tightens around them, Zhenya is forced to make a choice—play by the family’s brutal rules, or burn the empire down to keep Nikolai breathing.
