Hold Me Tight, Duke Etien

OctaviaShaw_
All Ethien desired was a serene existence after enduring years of bloodshed. As the Duke who led the revolution, and dismantled the former empire, he had placed Prince Glenn Lancaster on the throne. Now, Ethien longed to marry, step away from politics, and enjoy a life of peace. However, Glenn had different plans. As the newly appointed Emperor, Glenn consistently rejected every marriage proposal directed at Ethien. Without any attempt at subtlety, he dismissed anyone who expressed interest in the Duke, making it his goal to remain close to Ethien. While Ethien fought to suppress feelings that should not have arisen, Glenn relentlessly pushed through every barrier. Their positions were meant to keep them apart, but for Glenn, it was merely another reason to claim Ethien as his own.

Scions of the Cruel King

In Scions of the Cruel King, the Targaryen family drama is in full swing. After Aegon’s death, Aenys took the throne, but things quickly went south. Aenys wasn’t exactly a strong leader, and it didn’t take long before the Faith rose up against him. That’s when Maegor stepped in—furious and out for blood after the murder of Eleana. He crushed the rebellion with an iron fist. When Aenys died under some pretty shady circumstances, Maegor took over as king. But even though he was ruthless, the Faith remained a thorn in his side right up until his own brutal end in 48 A.L. Now, the story kicks off in 56 A.L., and the Targaryens are still in hot water. Jaehaerys, Aenys’s son, is holding down the fort as regent for his young cousin Vaegyl, Maegor’s son. The realm is a mess, full of uprisings and political scheming. Jaehaerys and his allies, like Gerold Westerling, are doing their best to keep the peace, but they don’t realize that Westerling and Ser Tybolt Lannister have their own plans. They’re secretly plotting to put Westerling’s grandson, Aegon, on the throne. As Vaegyl gets closer to coming of age, things start heating up. Old loyalties are questioned, hidden secrets come to light, and the shadow of Maegor’s brutal reign still hangs over everything. The fight for the Iron Throne is just beginning, and it’s going to get messy. If you’re into stories packed with power struggles, betrayals, and the Targaryens fighting for control of the Seven Kingdoms, Scions of the Cruel King is right up your alley.
