Ellienne, a scorned and abandoned flower, is the illegitimate daughter of a Duke.
By her father’s command, she is sent to the northern fortress to become the concubine of Grand Duke Karadion—a man hailed as the great guardian sword and feared as a bloodthirsty war fanatic.
Ellienne has only one wish:
To leave the northern fortress behind and live out the rest of her days peacefully in a monastery.
At some point, the ever-cold and unyielding gaze of Karadion began to burn with the flames of madness.
His piercing, intense eyes trapped her in place, rendering her unable to move.
The weight of his tightly pressed lips and the overwhelming presence of his massive, imposing figure beneath his uniform froze Ellienne in fear.
“Prove your worth with everything you’ve got, Ellienne. My war trophy concubine.”
“…!”
An arrogant, commanding voice reached her ears. That cold voice seized her heart in an instant.
Ellienne bit her lip, refusing to crumble under the weight of despair.
Even if she had been abandoned, trampled on, and broken—
She would rise again, like a flower that blooms again.
“A mere war trophy concubine… I will discard this role, Your Grace.”
