Aurelia is the first princess born in Renalt after two hundred years, and her destiny is to marry Valentin, the prince of Achleva —and greatest enemy of her home —to ensure peace between both kingdoms. But the rumors of a sick and cruel prince do not stop, and the only thing that overshadows Aurelia's apprehension towards her impending marriage is fear of those who would kill her to avoid it. Soon dire circumstances will make her flee her throne and she will discover the happiness that a commoner life can bring.
