The Warden Protocol: Order Was Supposed to Save Them
Order isn’t peace. It’s compliance.
In a city governed by protocols and oath-bound law, the right signature can erase a life—cleanly, legally, forever. Maëlys is trained to audit the system, not challenge it. Kael is trained to enforce it, not question it.
Then one case goes wrong.
A breach in the rules exposes something no report can contain, and Maëlys is reassigned under “custody optics” to the very man whose career she could destroy. Forced into proximity by official orders and watched by a Tribunal that feeds on control, they’re pushed into an alliance neither can afford—because the closer they get, the harder it becomes to tell the difference between duty and choice.
The system demands obedience.
Their chemistry demands the opposite.
THE WARDEN Book One is an adult romantasy with a noir, dystopian edge—fast-paced, competence-driven, and slow-burn with high tension.
