Prisoner: Astral Order
The most dangerous secrets are the ones worth killing for.
For years, Bauwys Hatcher lived a double life-hiding his royal bloodline and operating deep undercover as Hughes Remington, Inspector General of VIP-D. But when his identity is exposed, everything shatters. Branded a traitor, he now rots in a VIP-D prison cell, counting the hours before Vexis Thorne sends someone to finish him for good.

For years, Bauwys Hatcher lived a double life-hiding his royal bloodline and operating deep undercover as Hughes Remington, Inspector General of VIP-D. But when his identity is exposed, everything shatters. Branded a traitor, he now rots in a VIP-D prison cell, counting the hours before Vexis Thorne sends someone to finish him for good.
Enter Nyx Solaris. Fresh out of the Shadow Syndicate Academy, she's been taught to follow orders without question. Her first mission: infiltrate the prison, pose as a guard, and eliminate the prisoner known as Bauwys Hatcher. Simple. Clean. No mistakes.
But nothing about Bauwys Hatcher is simple, including his identity.
Charming. Calculating. Infuriatingly perceptive. He sees through Nyx's disguise in moments-and yet he doesn't expose her. Instead, he starts unraveling her loyalty, her training, her carefully constructed walls.
Nyx came to kill him. She wasn't supposed to feel this pull. She wasn't supposed to hesitate. But with every encounter, she begins to doubt the truth of her orders... and question the Shadow Syndicate she's sworn her life to.
As Vexis closes in and the clock ticks down, Bauwys will use every weapon at his disposal to escape-including the naive young assassin sent to end him. But what happens when the master manipulator finds himself falling for the one person he should have stayed away from?
She's the key to his survival.
He's the threat to her very soul.
And in a world where loyalty is lethal, love may be the ultimate betrayal.
He's the prisoner she was ordered to kill. She's the assassin he's willing to use. But in the shadows between duty and desire, they may destroy each other... or save the world.
Tropes: Enemies to Lovers; Forbidden Love; Slow Burn; Fated Mates; Cat & Mouse; Undercover Mission; Bad Boy with a Tragic Past; Hidden Identity; HEA. This is a stand alone story in the Vanguardian Series.
