What if a young monarch was framed for murder, proven innocent, then had to choose between the throne and the woman he has loved since childhood?

A young prince has been accused of murder and has been shipped off to live with relatives in America.  He is dark and secretive and an up-and-coming writer of horror stories who falls in love with a beautiful heavy-metal bass player, one of his closest friends. 

He marries his lovely friend, but on their wedding night she sees an ugly side of him.  He is a jealous man with a cool, dangerous, vengeful streak and prepares to kill two people who have crossed him.  One of his closest friends disappears. 

The prince’s brother clears his name of the crime he was accused of back home, so he is invited to take the throne of his country. 

He refuses to go back without his wife, but she won’t have him.  He decides to take drastic action.
