In the medieval fantasy realm of the Seven Kingdoms, Maximilian Calypse stands before her father, the Duke of Croyso, trembling as she awaits her husband's return after three years of absence. Her stutter worsens under her father's cruel gaze as he strikes her with his cane, demanding she persuade Riftan to maintain their marriage-a union hastily arranged solely to avoid joining a dragon-hunting campaign. Now Riftan returns a celebrated hero who slayed that very dragon, and the duke fears the shame of annulment. When Riftan arrives, his sardonic comments about Maxi's fear give way to a startling announcement: she's coming with him to his estate. Despite her protests, he declares, "You are my wife. Why must I seek anyone's permission to take you with me?" Their departure marks the beginning of a journey that will transform both their lives in ways neither could imagine.
