THE MAN

BEHIND THE

CHARM.

✦

Captain Lucien Marlowe has built his reputation on calm waters, sharp instincts, and an effortless ability to make almost anyone believe he has everything under control.

A captain of the Caerwyn Royal Fleet, he is known for his charm, intelligence, confidence, and remarkable skill at sea. He can navigate treacherous waters, negotiate with merchants, disarm an argument with a smile, and make even the most dangerous situation seem almost entertaining.

────────── ✦ ──────────

But beneath the easy smile lies a past Lucien has never allowed anyone to see.

Years ago, his first command ended in disaster.

His ship was caught in a violent storm and sank beneath the waves.

The official account calls it a tragic maritime accident.

Lucien knows the truth.

He survived because he abandoned the ship.

The rest of his crew did not.

────────── ✦ ──────────

One secret. One sunken ship. One captain who never forgave himself.

Since that night, Lucien has devoted himself to becoming the captain he believes he should have been from the beginning—reliable, capable, and willing to face danger rather than run from it.

Nobody knows what truly happened.

And Lucien intends to keep it that way.
