Omschrijving

Power is often described as command, as law, as a voice that does not tremble.
But inside the palace of Solaris, power is something quieter—measured in distance, in silence, in what must never be said aloud.

Luciel Solaris inherits a throne shaped by caution. Every corridor is mapped, every gesture observed, every rule designed to keep him untouched and unchallenged. Protection is constant, visible, and cold. Safety exists—but comfort does not.

Kael Varen was trained to be invisible. A guard whose worth is defined by precision, by restraint, by knowing exactly where to stand and when not to move. His duty is simple: keep the heir alive, remain replaceable, and never let proximity become personal.

Between them lies a space carefully maintained by law, rumor, and unspoken warning. A space that begins to strain when danger refuses to follow protocol—when threats arrive quietly, without spectacle, and leave no witnesses behind.

As palace politics tighten and unseen hands test the limits of control, both Luciel and Kael are forced to confront the cost of protection built on distance. Orders meant to preserve stability begin to erase trust. Silence, once a shield, becomes a weapon. And safety achieved through ignorance proves increasingly fragile.

This is not a story of sudden rebellion or dramatic confession. It is a story of endurance. Of choices made without witnesses. Of bodies that react before permission is granted. Of loyalty that risks becoming something the palace cannot name without fear.

The Queen Under Guard is a slow-burning romantasy rooted in restraint rather than indulgence, where intimacy feels dangerous, silence carries weight, and emotional truth is revealed through posture, breath, and the spaces people are ordered not to cross. It explores power as something negotiated daily, not seized once; love as something chosen repeatedly, not declared; and protection as an act that may demand disobedience long before it allows tenderness.

For readers who linger in tension, who value political intrigue as much as emotional depth, and who believe that the quietest stories often leave the deepest marks, this is a world where nothing important is ever said too loudly—and nothing true remains buried forever.
