"I cursed you with one command: live."
Born into the bloodline destined to lead the fierce and war-loving Raiveda Clan, Jiz has always carried a single ambition: to free Tsado, a retired warrior held captive as little more than a plaything on the outskirts of the settlement.
To everyone else, Tsado is a disgraced veteran. To Jiz, he is far more: a trusted comrade who fought beside him for years, the only person who ever stood as his equal, and the one who quietly claimed a place in his heart.
But before Jiz can reveal the truth of his feelings, tragedy strikes. Just as he stands on the verge of inheriting the chieftain's seat, Tsado murders one of the clan's most powerful elders, shattering their future in an instant.
Branded a criminal and sentenced to death, Tsado becomes the enemy of the very people he once protected. With the tribe demanding blood and destiny pulling them to opposite sides, Jiz must choose between the future he has spent his life pursuing and the man he cannot bear to lose.
A sweeping boys' love epic where two warriors stand against fate, bound by a love neither can forsake and a curse that makes living the cruelest punishment of all.
