The Worker Prince
What if everything you thought you knew about yourself turned out to be wrong?
Freshly graduated from the prestigious Presimion Military Academy, Davi Rhii, Prince of the Boralian people, discovers a secret: although raised as royalty he was born a Vertullian slave, a truth that calls into question all he knew about himself.
As he discovers what it means to be a Vertullian, his quest brings him into conflict with his friends and family, causing him to question his cultural values, and putting in jeopardy all he's worked for his whole life...
Is reclaiming his heritage and gaining a new family worth the loss of everything, including his beloved uncle and oldest friends?
