A Kingdom Where Everything Glitters but Nothing Is Free
In a world where magic flows through royal bloodlines, King Midas rules the Sixth Kingdom with a touch that transforms everything to gold. But his most prized possession isn't the gleaming castle that crowns the snowy mountain of Highbell-it's Auren, a woman whose skin shimmers with metallic gold, kept in a luxurious cage atop the highest tower. For ten years, she has been his "favored" saddle-this world's term for a royal concubine-though unlike the others who serve his physical desires, Auren remains separate, protected, and perpetually confined. Her body is entirely gold except for her teeth, the whites of her eyes, and her tongue. Most striking are the two dozen golden ribbons growing from her spine-prehensile extensions she can control like additional limbs, a secret weapon few know she possesses. What does it mean to be treasured but never truly free? Auren wrestles with this question daily, testing the bars of her cage while simultaneously defending her captivity. "He keeps me separate because I'm precious," she tells herself, clinging to the narrative that has sustained her since Midas rescued her from child traffickers a decade ago. But beneath her gratitude lies a growing restlessness-a yearning for something beyond the golden walls that both protect and imprison her.
