Some want power. Some seek freedom. Others crave war. But one wants revenge.

Kaito

The Silent King has spent a lifetime choosing his kingdom over himself. Now he must do it again. Nine women have crossed the world, believing they're competing for a crown and his hand. Kaito knows he's searching for something far rarer: the one woman he can trust with all of his secrets.

Mason

The Corrupted King has finally begun rebuilding what was stolen from him. His alliance with Kaito could unite two kingdoms, but every decision he makes paints another target on his back. While the world sees a charming king, Mason continues hunting the people responsible for his mother's murder before they destroy everything he's built.

Rion

The Malefic King has spent his entire life earning a throne that should already be his. Instead, his father refuses to surrender the crown, leaving Rion king in name alone. With every passing day, the curse binding their bloodline tightens, and Rion will become whatever history demands to claim what should have been his all along.

Adrian

The Demented King has finally stepped beyond the prison he called home. Every life he touches is changed by the unstoppable force of Time. If he can't master the power consuming him, he'll become the very monster he fears.

Johari

Johari survived a war that stole everything from her. Now hiding under a false name, she's offered a place inside the Silent King's court. Everyone else sees a bride competition. Johari sees the perfect opportunity to destroy the four kings who ruined her life, one by one.

War brews beyond the palace walls.

Every secret has a price.

Welcome to the Silent King's court.
