Sir Eldred, a powerful knight, commands respect and obedience from all, including his devoted servant, Thomas. But beneath the surface of their formal relationship simmers a potent attraction. When Thomas is tasked with tending to his lord&#8217;s wounds, the power dynamic shifts, and a forbidden connection ignites. Will they risk everything for a taste of what lies between them, or will the rigid rules of their world keep them forever apart?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-constrained
