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

"What is it that you wish to discuss with me?" Kyren inquired, his voice filled with curiosity as he faced the king.

King Kyden lifted his gaze from the report that his brother had submitted, his eyes meeting Kyren's.

The private library provided an atmosphere of refined elegance and intellectual pursuits. The walls were adorned with richly bound books, their spines lining the shelves meticulously organised by subject. Soft, warm lights of the sunshine bathed the room, casting a gentle glow that accentuated the beauty of the surroundings.

Seated at his ornate wooden table, King Kyden exuded an air of authority, his posture commanding respect. The intricately carved details of the chair he sat upon added to the regal ambience of the space. The scent of aged parchment and leather-bound tomes filled the air, evoking a sense of knowledge and history.
