Clara de Lorn heard all the words that were spoken by the lady that had taken her position as the General's wife, and it added to the bitterness that she had felt in her broken heart.
It was still fresh in her mind how she felt devastated when her father told her that General von Rodega had chosen a lady to be his bride, but it was definitely not her.
The man, who had captured her heart since she heard about him, a young general from another land who led the military forces and successfully defeated the great Valthian, chose Lady Joanna de Lara as his wife, not her, the most beautiful lady in Barasca.
The man that she adored so much and made her heart beat violently when her eyes first landed on his breathtaking figure in the victory banquet had become someone's husband, not hers, one of the most captivating ladies in Terra.
