Lady-Protector

The second volume of the Corean Chronicles follows Mykella, a young queen who has seized the throne through a violent coup. Stripped of her family and facing a hostile court, she must navigate the treacherous politics of a male-dominated society while preparing for an invasion. Mykella relies on her unique magical ability to read the emotions of those around her, a power that serves as both a political tool and a source of personal vulnerability. As she attempts to rebuild her nation's stability, the resurgence of this magic hints at the return of an ancient, formidable enemy that threatens to upend the fragile peace she has established.
