Kaeden is the roguish prince of the Veroldik Empire, heir to the throne, except he doesn’t want the throne.

At every turn he does remarkably foolish things, causing scandals and disarray among the subjects of Veroldik so that his parents may consider him unworthy of his role as Crown Prince and perhaps transfer that duty to his little sister.

But things don't go as he planned when his father demands he gets married to the youngest princess of a neighboring kingdom, Lerose, after a scandal he caused with a princess of another rival kingdom.

This time, he has no choice. He brought this upon himself, the torture and the torment.

You are his bane.
