Ten years ago, blood stained the palace of the Maya Kingdom. A queen consort, a crown prince, and many loyal lives were lost in what the court called an invasion. But Princess Shriya, the forgotten third princess, has long believed that tragedy was no simple attack. Hidden away for a decade, Shriya has survived by pretending to be exactly what they expect; broken, obedient, and harmless. But behind closed doors, she has been waiting, listening, and planning. 

When whispers of betrayal begin to point toward a far darker truth, she sets out to uncover what really happened the night her family was destroyed. Yet the palace is a place of masks, where loyalty can be bought and kindness can hide a blade. 

And when a young palace teacher with secrets of his own enters her path, Shriya finds herself drawn into a dangerous game where truth, revenge, and trust may cost more than either of them is ready to lose.
