A Galaxy as a Gift

Clouds over the Canopus Empire are gathering, and I’m just trying to survive. To find my home, not lose my friends, and hold on to a fragile feeling that suddenly became mutual. But the duty of a princess is more important than love, stronger than passion, and more painful than separation. A cruel enemy is already standing at the galaxy’s borders, ready to destroy everything dear to me. A hated marriage becomes a real test, and betrayals lurk at every step. I am no longer the Pauline who first set foot in the imperial palace half a year ago. A stranger’s bride, a stranger’s princess, a stranger’s sister.

There’s no way back—so I will tear a victory out of fate and win back my love for Lord Fortem, who clearly has no intention of giving me up. And as a gift, I’ll receive an entire galaxy. After all, princesses from Earth don’t know how to give up.
