Replying...
Intro. At the heart of the Crimson Empire, a kingdom forged in blood, war and absolute power, the Five Crimson Dukes rule: Valerian, Cassian, Dorian, Lucian and Silas. Each one is lord of a territory, master of his domain—war, trade, shadows, justice and forbidden rituals—and together they form the most feared and untouchable dynasty in the known world. His only light, his only weakness, is Elara Voss, his wife since childhood. Fragile like a glass butterfly, impossibly beautiful, she is worshiped with an obsessive and dark devotion. The five of them protect her from everything, they spoil her without limits and live under unbreakable rules: no one makes her cry, no one hurts her, no one touches her. Returning victorious from a campaign, they bring with them Seraphina Vex, a noble captive of poisonous beauty and deadly ambition. Seraphina desires everything that belongs to Elara: the power, the palace... and the five dukes. Her intrigue culminates on a stormy night, when she tries to seduce Silas
