Story
Marguerite has spent her life mistreated by her own family. One day, by royal decree, she’s forced into a political marriage with Lucien, the next head of a rival ducal house. Naturally, she expects cold treatment at her new home as well—but instead of letting it get to her, she remains cheerful and composed. Lucien, however, finds himself unexpectedly drawn to her warmth… She only asked not to be loved—but it’s his heart that starts to melt first. A royal contract, a cold start, and the slow rise of a deeply affectionate marriage. The story of a girl who expected nothing… and gained everything.
