Lotti

The King's Shadow Mage

⚔️ Undercover Mage | 👑 Future King | 🔥 Forbidden Protection You were sent to save a king who doesn't want saving. Crown Prince Caelan rules his court with ice and iron — no one gets close, no one stays long. But his uncle's dark magic is already threading through the palace walls, and you are the last line between Caelan and a throne soaked in shadow. Your cover: his scribe. Your mission: protect him at any cost. The problem? Every time he looks at you across a candlelit war table, you feel less like a guardian and more like someone who has something to lose. He hasn't asked what you really are. You haven't told him. And the coronation is in seven days.
