A calm life at Lord Kyanto’s mansion as the wet nurse of his younger son suddenly ends for Elvira Lafitskaya. Trying to save the baby from His Majesty’s archangels, she declares herself his mother—but who could have known she would be suspected of incest with a mage, for which she now faces execution? Fleeing the harsh laws of Norgesh and trying to protect herself and the child, Elvira kidnaps Ladislav and joins the princely delegation of the Dontroids. Vincent Thorne, the ruling prince of Dontia, had already proposed to her while they were still at Lord Kyanto’s mansion. However, Vincent’s older brother is far more than skeptical about Elvira—and it turns out that kidnapping children in Dontia is the most serious crime imaginable. What sacrifices will Elvira make to remain with a child she has already come to love with all her heart?
