Summary
For ten long years, Natalia, the Count’s daughter, has been bound in a political marriage to Klaus, the Empire’s formidable God of War. Wed at the tender age of eight, their union has remained a cold, stagnant formality, devoid of warmth or true connection. Fearing the inevitable judgment of being an inadequate wife, Natalia makes a desperate choice: she flees, convinced her absence will be unnoticed, that she is utterly insignificant. But the Empire’s God of War has other plans. To her astonishment, Klaus pursues her, shattering her assumptions and igniting a chase that will force them to confront the unspoken truths of their decade-long bond. Can two souls, long estranged, finally bridge the chasm between them and forge a genuine love? Discover their journey in Chapter 1!
