Description
From Chapter 14.
"... “As a matter of fact, yes, my lady. It is called a commander’s oath. And the one who enforces it upon me, alongside my conscience, is the ruler of the North.”
A merciful lie. I have already broken my oath in the most disgraceful way imaginable, upon the grave of the Northern ruler’s ancestor, between his daughter’s legs. But I have nothing better to offer this woman."
Meino Terren was sent north as a political offering. He survived by becoming the Commander of the Royal Guard—sworn to serve, sworn to obey, and sworn to want nothing.
The Princess is the one thing he can’t afford to want. A hybrid marked by a bloodline her own people distrust, she walks a razor's edge between power and exile. Both she and Meino hold legitimate claims to the throne, a political reality that should make them enemies. Instead, they’ve been in love since childhood, forced to honor boundaries they would give anything to break.
As a war for the throne turns the kingdom against itself and the darkness beyond the night border begins to bleed into the living world, desire becomes a weakness and love, a liability. Because when the night falls, it does not care about your title. It only cares what you are willing to become to survive.
A Note From the Publisher
A quick note for my readers: This book is already published and available! I am so excited to share this story with the NetGalley community to keep the conversation going.
Regarding Formatting: As many of you know, EPUB files can sometimes behave a bit 'rebelliously' depending on which device or app you use. If you notice any minor alignment or spacing quirks on your specific e-reader, please know these are device-syncing issues. I would be so grateful if you could focus your review on the story, characters, and writing rather than the technical display of the file.
I’d love to see your honest thoughts here and on Goodreads. If you enjoy the read, cross-posting your review to Amazon is the biggest gift you can give an indie author!
Happy reading, and thank you for supporting my work!
Advance Praise
"A Six of Crows " and "Game of Thrones" had a baby, they'd name it "Regnum Noctis"!" Goodreads Reviewer
"Meino and Helmi had such fun 'voices,' with Meino possessing of a particularly dry, sardonic tone. The fantasy was highly engaging and moved at a fast pace, with an undercurrent of sexual tension between the two mains that kept me coming back for more. There was also the mystery of the beasts that thrive in the Night lands just beyond the Northward Kingdom. Helmi's hybrid origins, part human and part night-born beast, is a closely guarded secret and a source of both great power & fear. Combine that with the forbidden attraction Meino & Helmi harbor for one another and you're left with a devious tension." Goodreads Reviewer
"Regnum Noctis delivers a gripping mix of political intrigue, forbidden romance, and looming supernatural horror. Set in a fractured world where kingdoms barely hold uneasy peace, the story follows Commander Meino Terren and Princess Helmi, two characters caught between duty and desire as war and something far darker begin to rise.
What stands out most is the atmosphere. The constant sense that “night is coming” creates tension throughout, and the world feels dangerous without being overly complicated. The author does a good job balancing personal conflict with larger stakes, there’s a real feeling that every choice matters.
The relationship between the main characters is a core strength. It adds emotional weight and keeps the story engaging even in slower moments. Readers who enjoy romance woven into epic fantasy will likely appreciate this element." Goodreads reviewer
