Summary
Born unwanted, raised out of necessity, and shaped into something he never wanted to be. Ivan is the bastard heir to a once powerful dukedom, a puppet to be used by those grasping at the remains of their former influence. But emotions can’t be learned from books and no amount of training can make up for what he lacks.
Until he sees Till.
A street boy who burns with every feeling Ivan has never understood. A boy who fights, laughs, and loves with reckless abandon. A boy Ivan becomes obsessed with, watching closely from the shadows, mimicking every expression until they feel like they’re his own. But just as quickly as he appears, Till vanishes.
Years later, their paths cross again, only now Till belongs to someone else, the empire is on the brink of war, and Ivan is no longer satisfied with just watching.
