For twenty-one years, the name Tawan has been nothing more than a stain in Lanna's history. A noble family accused of treason. A ruined estate. A child who disappeared without a trace. Keen Tawan has spent his entire life far from the kingdom that branded his family traitors, raised in secrecy with only fragments of the life he once knew. He has no desire to return to Lanna-or to the royal family responsible for his family's downfall. Then a summons from the Crown changes everything. Called back to the capital of Nakhara, Keen finds himself standing before Crown Prince Nawin Kittisak, the future king of Lanna and one of the kingdom's most powerful Alpha mages. Their meeting should have been nothing more than a political formality. Instead, something ancient stirs between them. As Keen is drawn deeper into palace life, old memories begin to surface, strange magic awakens within him, and the line between the history he was taught and the truth he remembers begins to blur. In a kingdom where magic runs through bloodlines and the past is never truly forgotten, Keen is about to discover that being the last Tawan may be far more dangerous than he ever imagined. And Nawin may be the one person standing between him and the secrets waiting to consume them both.
