Synopsis

Phillip had spent his life living by his mother’s code of honor. One she had instilled in not just him but her household staff, her soldiers under her command as a general, and all his siblings. One that called to the familial bonds and the importance of putting those above all else. Second only to the land and the crown. If he was being honest with himself, Phillip valued that code of honor. It was something the Curis family was known for. An honorable military family led by a Duchess, Phillip’s grandmother. That code, the honor of duty, is about to be tested in Phillip. He and it will be put through the forge of conflict and forced to become either hardened, or terribly brittle. The civil war going on in the Queendom is getting larger and pulling in ever more soldiers. Phillip is unfortunately stuck right in the middle of it as a hostage of Sadie Karen. Except even if he managed to escape Sadie, escape the war, that wouldn't really guarantee Philip's safety. It's clear that Sadie doesn't mean him well and he'll need to prepare himself. Armed with his intelligence, his uncanny ability to read people, and his stubborn nature, Phillip has to become his own man, and define how his code will fit in his new life. Regardless of what anyone else wants of him.
