When Survival is the goal, Elara could not be a chooser. So, when she got the chance to hide herself as a new nanny in the house of the infamous duke of Assedon, Cedric Blackthrone Frostbane, she accepted it easily.
But old habits die hard. Her fearless nature, compassion for weak and burning eyes for justice were hard to hide as a simple paramour of the duke. Especially when he paid extra attention to this irresistible sexy woman and soon found himself entangled in the cruel games of politics, betrayal and vengeance. 
But what she did not know, he was masters at those games and though she thought she had hidden all that from him, he was the puppeteer behind the scenes.
What could go wrong in that perfect game? Would they walk on the path of revenge or become each other’s weakness and lose the battle where weakness is not allowed.
A/n: The story starts with Dom/sub relationship and unequal power between fl and ml. It was a part of BDSM and had a lot of sensuous scenes.

Scandalized Nights Of Duke's Palace

"You did not beat them?" there was rage in her voice. If she had been there, she would have slapped the woman and taught her a lesson. How could she kiss someone who was trying to kill her lover?

Cedric felt a sense of uneasiness at her reply. But he shook his head truthfully.

"My brother knew I was there, he had looked into my eyes and winked. But Kara had her back on me. She didn't know I had witnessed her that day." no wonder he had twisted emotions and did not trust women.

"So you left.'' That was the most foolish thing to do. He should have taken action. "I never knew you were so weak-hearted." she snarled and regretted it immediately. How could she show rage on the victim here? He had endured so much alone.

How she thought that he was the cruel one when everyone had tormented him.
