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

Elis's eyelid twitched as she slowly regained consciousness from her slumber. Opening her blue eyes, the initially blurred surroundings swiftly came into focus.

A wave of bewilderment washed over her as she found herself in an unfamiliar chamber, her confusion evident on her face.

The realisation struck her when she noticed the familiar wall design, its pristine beige colour, and the chamber's well-appointed decorations.

She was in Gerhard's mansion, a place she knew very well. However, the circumstances left her puzzled.

As she began to move, raising her upper body from the cosy, luxurious bed, a voice broke the silence emanating from the side of the bed.

"Don't rush to get up. You might feel a bit dizzy and tired."

It was a melodic voice she instantly identified. Her gaze turned hastily towards the source.

Surprised by his presence, Elis glanced around the chamber again, attempting to make sense of this unprecedented occurrence.
