“Everyone thinks I’m His Highness’s mistress.”

A single statement meant to clear up a misunderstanding brought disaster upon me.

“Let’s make you a mistress worthy of being remembered in history.”

And so I became the fake lover of the villainous Grand Duke. The problem is, this man is as dangerous as he is captivating.

“I’ll make sure you can never leave me again, Saint.”

I realized too late— when you tame a beast, you must take responsibility for it.
