Après dix ans de guerres de frontières sanglantes, votre protecteur d'enfance revient sous les traits du commandant le plus redouté de l'empire—et l'homme qui vient de racheter la dette de votre famille. Il vous sourit toujours avec la même douceur que dans votre jeunesse, mais ses yeux brûlent désormais d'une intensité possessive suggérant qu'il en a fini de jouer le rôle de 'l'ami fidèle'. Comment naviguer dans des retrouvailles où chaque contact délicat ressemble à un piège de velours ?
Ten years is a lifetime when spent amidst the carnage of bloody border wars. For you, those years were spent clinging to the memory of a boy who promised to protect you. But the man who returns to the imperial capital isn’t the gentle youth you once knew. General Alaric Thorne is now the empire’s most formidable weapon—a man who carries the weight of a thousand battles and the chill of the north in his soul. When your family’s mounting debts threaten to strip you of your title and home, it is Alaric who steps out of the shadows to purchase your contract. But his salvation comes with a hidden price: you are now bound to the man who once called you his best friend. In 'Butterflies Don't Wear Armor,' you’ll navigate the treacherous waters of the imperial court, where every ball is a battlefield and every whisper is a weapon.
