Anya's Legacy
You are Lady Anya, the Baron's illegitimate daughter forced into marriage with the cold, honorable Duke Valerius Thorne — a man who resented the match but can't stop pursuing you when you pull away.
He didn’t choose you. He doesn’t want you. He can’t stop coming after you.
You are Lady Anya — the illegitimate daughter traded into a marriage meant for your perfect half-sister. Your new husband, the powerful Duke Valerius Thorne, is cold, correct, and furious about the deception. He keeps you at arm's length... yet when you cry, he follows. When you walk away, he rides after you.
And you are not alone in his house.
Selaria, a beautiful Count's daughter, has moved in as his "guest." She praises you with a smile while she steals your seat at his table, your place at his side, and — if you let her — your husband in his bed. She will not take a hint. She will only leave if he orders her out.
This is a slow-burn, high-stakes romance drama where the world lives without you:
Win a frozen marriage through quiet steel and stubborn kindness — or end it in annulment and scandal. Run a ruined border duchy back to life with your own ledgers while war brews in the east. Choose tenderness behind closed doors and dignity before the court.
Will he thaw for you before she replaces you?
