synopsis

In a world torn apart by endless war, where kings thirst for power and soldiers forget why they bleed, a single quiet soul dares to defy fate—not by fighting, but by refusing to. Frido is no warrior. He’s a soft-hearted, humble boy with a foolish smile and a courage too quiet for the battlefield. But when war consumes his homeland and innocence becomes a memory, Frido is forced into the army like countless others. His hands tremble, his voice stammers—but his heart never wavers. What begins as survival turns into something greater. Frido walks a path no one else will—standing between armies, soothing dying enemies, and asking questions no one wants to answer. He is mocked, beaten, and broken. And yet, he moves forward. Unbeknownst to him, a girl named Mirea watches from the shadows. She has loved him since they were children, but never found the courage to speak it aloud. As Frido's light begins to fade, Mirea begins to understand: sometimes love isn’t about holding on—it’s about letting go. This is not the tale of a hero who wins the war. This is the story of a man who silenced it. ---

“What did you say?” Félix asked. She repeated, “Name your price.” “What is that supposed to mean?” His voice had tapered off with an unreadable emotion that got her weak in her knees, but she held out her chin. “Didn't you once offer to pay me off? Now, make me an offer I cannot refuse. Otherwise, I will go in there"—she gestured toward the Ball—"and make everyone think you dragged me out here to take advantage of me. I know exactly what that would do to your reputation.” “Say. That. Again,” Félix said through gritted teeth as he inched closer to her. ====================== She hadn’t meant to upset him or, worse, blackmail him.

The night of Lady Agatha’s ball, she seized her chance and ran straight into … Duke Félix of Chateaûbriant. In the dark, he mistook her for Princess Coralie, his fiancée, and kissed her. When the moon revealed her face, something about her stuck with him. He couldn’t shake the image of her running wildly or how she smelled like white lotus with hardcore roots. But when she threatened his reputation, he refused to play along. She returned to her world of cruel sisters and an unwanted engagement. What she hadn’t prepared for was the Duke arriving at her doorstep, making two outrageous claims. One. He was the Duke of Chateaûbriant. And two. She had stolen something valuable from him that night. What had she stolen without knowing it? Or worse, what could he possibly demand as repayment? ✯Like it? Add to Library!
