TRANSITIONShe made one mistake. Leaving him under the cover of darkness to escape the consequences of her actions would spiral…

And he didn’t care that she would bear the brunt of his bad choices. As a King’s son, nothing would be denied him, even though this particular experience should.

The man who was supposed to love and protect her did nothing, forcing her brother to take deadly action that plunged the kingdom into chaos.

Tony Baltimore makes strategic moves to protect his wife from everyone who’s coming against her—including members who are so “heavenly” minded that they’re no earthy good.
