Why these tropes fit
Souls in Ruin is a dark romantasy novel centered on illegitimate Princess Mireille, who is forced into an arranged marriage with the Blood King, a conqueror menacing her kingdom. When their wedding erupts into bloodshed, Mireille is imprisoned in her own castle dungeons, where she learns of her father’s dark sins and connects with a dangerous, alluring man held in the adjacent cell. Caught between the tyrannical Blood King and the mysterious captive, Mireille becomes entangled in a violent conflict driven by the revenge of vengeful gods, fighting to preserve her autonomy and refuse submission to either man.
