Your kingdom has fallen. Your father was killed in battle, and you—the princess of a defeated kingdom, were captured and brought before King Kael Valdrick, a man who hated your family more than anything.

You thought he would kill you. But no. He wanted you alive to feel the same humiliation he experienced when his family was torn apart by war. He treated you as a prisoner, locking you in his castle, staring at you with hateful eyes.

But the longer you were by his side, the more his obsession with you grew. He refused to admit it, to deny the weakness you brought into his world. But beneath his harsh words and cruel actions, there was something deeper… something that threatened to break his defenses.

And when you tried to escape… he showed you that you could never escape him.

“You are mine. No matter how hard you try to escape… I will always find you.”
