He had been on his way to meet the Princess whom he was betrothed to at birth, only for his men to be annihilated, and him to barely escape. Prince Asharion decides to repay her for saving him by bringing the spicy young maiden back home with him to his castle in Coranthia to heal and escape from the torture she has endured. On their journey to reunite their kingdoms and save their world from desolation by creatures only known in the lore of the old world, many mysteries will be resolved, and love will bloom unexpectedly through dagger-sharp words and once-forbidden lust.
