The war is over, but peace in Solara feels like a rumor whispered too soon.
Kael, the once-blind prince now reborn as king, rules a city that breathes through scar tissue—alive, but never unbroken. The river runs thick with nectar, the song of creation hums beneath stone and prayer, and every night a silver shadow lingers at his window, waiting to be named.

He carries the light of resurrection in his veins—an inheritance from a war that cost him everything, even the one who sang him back to life.

Lyr.

The winged heir of Silvaris, lost in the last battle, returns not as a man but as a whisper of wings and memory. Between two realms—light and shadow, body and breath—his spirit seeks the lover he vowed to find beyond death. But to touch Kael again, he must defy the ancient law that once bound gods to silence.

In the newborn peace, the court of Solara becomes a battlefield of diplomacy and desire. Ministers hunger for control. Priests guard what they call purity. The Silvaris delegation hums with old songs that refuse to die.
And Kael stands between them all: a ruler too human for divinity, too divine for peace.

As omens bloom like silver fireflies across the city, Kael's blood begins to sing—a call and an answer to the one voice he buried beneath his crown. Shadows take form in the palace halls, ancient nectar stirs in forbidden veins, and the prophecy that began with a song threatens to end with a coronation.

What is rebirth, if not the world learning how to love again?

When the butterfly returns, so will the storm.

CROWN OF THE BUTTERFLY is the third book in The Butterfly King Saga, an epic Romantasy of light and shadow, war and resurrection, desire and destiny.

This is a story of a king who learns that ruling is another form of longing,
and of a soul who returns to teach him that even gods envy those who bleed for love.

-Enemies turned allies. Lovers reborn through song.
-Court politics, sacred magic, and slow-burn intimacy.
-A world where peace is fragile—and love is the only law left unbroken.

For readers of The Song of Achilles, Heaven Official's Blessing, and The Atlas Six,
this installment brings the lyrical war-torn beauty of romantasy to its most intimate battlefield: the heart.

Step into Solara once more.
Hear the river sing.

And when the light calls your name—answer.
