————-
In the medieval land of Fomoria, the God-King Balor has ruled for 1,000 years, with absolute power and absolute cruelty to all who oppose him.
Yet in a small, hidden village, there are those who risk their lives to take in refugees looking to flee the tyranny of the sea beast’s power.
Gentle-hearted Esra, the rebel leader’s son, has spent his entire life in this isolated place, in his father’s shadow. Shy and physically frail, his greatest fear is that he will never become the strong leader he's expected to be.
Until the day their secret location is discovered by the ruthless enemy army.
At their head is Sir Umbra, a fearsome Knight of the Order of Balor, crafted by his God-King to be stronger and larger than any mortal man, perfect of face and form. A terrifying creature of legend, Esra never imagined that he could end up face to face with one of Balor’s chosen knights… or that he would be ordered to warm his bed.
Domineering, cruel, yet capable of a shocking tenderness, the darkly handsome Umbra awakens shameful desires in young Esra, and a blooming forbidden sexuality. Now Esra must struggle with the guilt and danger of succumbing to the man who has destroyed everything he has ever known, and falling into a love that he fears may destroy him.
