What could I answer to that? The sum was laughable. I’m a trained warrior. For protecting caravans, we were paid far more.
But even if you forget about money, his offer was absurd. We haven’t seen each other for ten years. We’re strangers. He didn’t recognize me at all. And now he was simply offering to sleep with me… for money.

Daniella hides her past, her true name, and even her gender, wandering with her younger brother across the endless expanses of the harsh North. But her world is turned upside down when the caravan she guards is attacked—and she herself becomes a prisoner of Earl Raylen, the Heir of the North, the one who managed to subdue the warring clans of Izenveyl.
And it seems the Heir doesn’t know that this isn’t their first meeting.
Does he really not remember the girl he grew up with in the dungeons of the laboratory of the Earthlings? The one who once gave him a normal life at the cost of her own freedom?
The one he swore to return for—whom he promised to make his wife, but never kept his word about.
