Antidote

Two years have passed since Sylhan's world collapsed. Once a lord of tremendous standing, he was stripped of his title and cast down into servitude—a fall made crueler by the madness and fractured memories that now plague him. With no freedom left to call his own, Sylhan has resigned himself to a life of quiet degradation, believing his days of dignity are gone forever. Then a knight appears before him. Without warning, the stranger's hand settles gently at his waist, and soft lips press against his own with a tenderness that feels impossibly familiar. Though Sylhan cannot recall ever meeting this man, something deep and unspoken binds them together—a connection rooted in a past his broken mind can no longer reach. Confused and wary, he finds himself incapable of pulling away, drawn ever closer to the enigmatic knight with each encounter. Glory, wealth, and power are all beyond his grasp now. But perhaps, in the arms of this stranger, love is the one thing Sylhan may still be allowed to keep.
