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

Clara lay in bed, taking the time to rest, while Emily busied herself with organising the linen in the cupboard. The room was filled with a sense of calm until a knock at the door disrupted the tranquillity. Ayden, the assistant healer, entered with a bright smile, bringing an air of liveliness with him.

"Hi there, ladies! I hope I'm not interrupting," he greeted them warmly, his presence injecting a spark of energy into the room.

"Oh, not at all, Mr. Norman. We weren't doing much, right, Dame Clara?" Emily replied, gesturing towards her friend.

Clara nodded, a hint of boredom evident on her face.

"I was starting to get restless from being cooped up in this room all day. It feels stuffy and confining."

Ayden's eyes lit up with excitement.

"Ah, I knew you would feel that way. That's why I've come up with something."

Emily raised an eyebrow curiously.

"What are you up to this time, Mr. Norman?"
