To society, they appear to be the perfect couple.

Is she only his possession, bound by loyalty, or can she become the one woman who will break through his armor and claim his heart? A story of forced vows, forbidden emotions, and a love that begins where trust seems impossible.

Je m’appelais Mosis, ingénieur en génie civil, passionné par l’histoire et les civilisations anciennes. Ma vie s’est brutalement arrêtée dans un accident… pour reprendre dans un trône froid, au cœur d’un royaume en ruine. Désormais, je suis Rolland Frostmar, roi d’un territoire oublié, haï par son peuple, méprisé par ses vassaux. Mais je ne suis pas revenu les mains vides.
