The Queen Who Dared

Synopsis

After five years as queen, my ex-fiancé Frederick Dunstan had the nerve to show up, asking me to give up my throne and become his concubine. He gazed at me with what he thought was deep affection, saying, "Even though you've been married, I don't care. I'll treat you as my main wife and give you everything you deserve." Before I could even scoff at his foolishness, the king, Ambrose Valemont, stormed in, his sword still dripping with blood. He didn't even glance at Frederick, who was kneeling and begging for mercy. Instead, Ambrose fixed his eyes on me, like I was something he owned. "She is my queen. How dare you try to take her from me?" It hit me then. Ambrose wasn't just after my body. He wanted to lock away my soul, to make it his and his alone.
