As they grew up, she desired to marry him, despite their differing statuses. As war raged, he signed up for the military, promising to ask for her hand when he was worthy. Two years later, he became more than what he promised he would be. He became the Archduke of Ayberia. But he broke her heart by marrying her friend. Years rolled away; life happened. She married a man who loved her and fell madly in love with him. She didn't think of him again. But fate was cruel; she was widowed at the age of twenty-one. She lost everything. Seven years later, she met a mysterious wolf while she was out at work in the Archduke's fief. She had a fall. The next morning, she found herself on the Archduke's bed. Did fate bring them together again? Or something nefarious is at play?  Is this a chance for a second love? Will she find out why he abandoned her in the past?

He had pleaded with his captain to let him escort her inside, and though the captain was less than thrilled at the idea of Alderic abandoning his post, he finally relented after seeing Jessamyn's weary face and exhausted state.

The captain's gaze softened, pity evident in his eyes. "Take her to safety," he instructed, waving them off with a resigned sigh. "You have one hour, no more."
