Magic has awakened within Kent… but this newfound power will cost him everything. When his forbidden magic powers are exposed, Kent Etheridge is forced to flee his home country, leaving behind his title of nobility, his wealth, his murdered father, and his traitorous brother. With no other options, Kent takes refuge in the neighboring rival country of Inoth and soon finds himself face to face with its beautiful queen–who wants him executed as a spy. Can Kent convince the queen to trust him despite his previous life? Or will she follow through on her threat to eliminate him as an enemy of the state?
