When the last heir of Ardel lost everything, fate would bring her to her rightful protector.

Anna Adhemar, the forgotten princess, found herself betrayed by the Regent. Hunted by the Bargesians and the ruthless slave traders, she desperately fled for her life. 

Rescued by a mysterious man, her newfound safety was short-lived as she succumbed to a potent aphrodisiac. Then, she awoke in the arms of the fearsome Knight Commander of Gerhard, stripped bare, in a foreign kingdom. 

Fear, confusion, and a sense of profound devastation enveloped her. 

But the man before her declared, "I am your husband. I married you last night."

Then, with unwavering determination, he vowed, " You're my woman now. No one can hurt my woman."
---
Kyren Raychard, the Crown Prince who had chosen to forsake the throne and became celibate, led the Knights of Gerhard to safeguard his kingdom’s border from slave trading activities.

Outside his camp, he found Anna poisoned and delirious. The healer informed him of the only cure, of which he must race against time to give and honour her. 

For the first time, he felt an overwhelming instinct to protect and claim her as his own. 

Unaware of his deepening affection, he belatedly realised his feelings as he stood on the brink of losing her.

Bound by a soul-binding spell, their fates intertwined…

The Grand Duke's Soulmate

King Kyden's forehead creased with surprise at Anna's unexpected request. He had never anticipated that she would make such a plea, and her words referring to Meredith as her dear friend caught him off guard.

Kyren too, stared at his wife, his expression a mix of curiosity and intrigue, but he remained silent, allowing Anna to explain her connection to the lady.

"How did you come to know her? I was under the impression that you had only recently arrived in Gantz a few days ago," the king inquired, seeking clarification.

"On the day of my arrival, while my escorts guided me through the plaza en route to the mansion, we crossed paths and began a conversation. We instantly became friends," Anna replied, her voice conveying the genuine connection she had formed with Meredith.

King Kyden's gaze hardened, his tone firm as he addressed the gravity of the situation.
