Published

She wore her mistress’s mask to buy a stranger three quiet sessions. The dragon answered her instead, and never once let go.
Sorel Sallowmere has spent six years as a lady’s maid, invisible on purpose, useful on command. When her mistress discovers her own father is racing to force a political betrothal before the year’s Shelf Rite is over, she begs Sorel to wear her ceremonial mask for the opening sessions—just long enough to disappear before the contract can be sealed. Sorel agrees, expecting nothing more than a harmless deception.

Instead, the ancient stone of Graniteshelf answers her touch.

The moment her bare palm meets the mountain terrace, a hidden gift awakens. Truth and lies pulse through the granite itself, exposing secrets no claimant was ever meant to uncover. Standing across from her is Warden Varic Stonemere, the man responsible for judging every claim. He believes the Rite protects the court. But as impossible evidence begins to surface, he is forced to question everything he has spent his life defending—including the woman whose real name he does not yet know.

For generations, the Shelf Rite has claimed that masks allow the dragon to judge worth instead of birth. But someone has been manipulating the ceremony for decades, quietly deciding who deserves to be heard long before the dragon is ever allowed to choose.

As the truth comes to light, Sorel and Varic must decide whether exposing it is worth risking the future of the court—and everything growing between them.
