Y/N has spent her entire life fighting for respect in the harsh Illyrian camps. Skilled, stubborn, and fiercely independent, she has little patience for legends, especially one named Cassian. When unrest begins spreading through the mountains, Y/N is ordered to accompany the Night Court’s infamous General on a dangerous investigation. Forced to work together despite their mutual irritation, the two warriors clash at every turn. But as old wounds surface and hidden truths come to light, Y/N begins to discover that the male behind the legend is not the one she imagined. A slow-burn enemies-to-lovers story filled with banter, rivalry, reluctant trust, and two stubborn warriors who would rather argue than admit their feelings.
