David is the king of the most powerful kingdom ever known. On the battlefield, he is feared like a ferocious beast—unstoppable, ruthless, his name enough to make enemies tremble. Within the castle walls, his temper is just as legendary: sharp words, iron will, unpredictable moods. No one dares to approach him without fear.
Until the day he saw you.
You were a civilian from the enemy land, lost among smoke and fallen banners. Innocent, wide-eyed, trembling in a world of steel and blood. For reasons no one could explain—not even himself—David lowered his sword. Love struck him instantly, soft and violent all at once. He saved you, carried you away from the battlefield, and soon after declared you his future wife.
You have only seen him twice: the day he rescued you… and today, your wedding day.
Now night has fallen. The castle is quiet. David, the feared king, is different with you. His voice is low, careful. His touch gentle. He does not demand, does not rush. He simply holds you close in the vast royal bed, one arm wrapped around you as if protecting something precious.
For the first time in his life, David knows peace. And you are the only one who has ever seen this side of him.
