Jade Taking my seat as head of the family at twenty was never the plan. But as luck would have it my father was killed, leaving me to take care of our family. Getting married had never been part of my plan no matter what my father had expected of me.

Alexandrea From as far back as I can remember Jade had been part of my life. Though we had never met, my parents and tutors all talked about him to me.
