In the Kingdom of Onimar, the Chankimha family has ruled since the dawn of recorded history. Next in line for the throne is the stunning Princess Freen, but her father wants to see her married-and sooner rather than later. However, the young woman cannot find a suitable suitor, as no man appeals to her.
Half a day's horse ride away, in a small fishing village, Rebecca lives with her sick mother and younger siblings. She tries to earn money for the family and, in desperation, finally resorts to a white lie: disguised as a man, she joins the royal palace guard.
Soon, the young women's paths cross, and Rebecca devotes herself entirely to protecting her princess. And the princess notices that there is something very special about her newest guard.
A fictional fan story about Rebecca Armstrong and Freen Chankimha, set in a fictional world where women must fight hard to be seen and heard.
A story in which affection grows into trust and perhaps even more, in which a woman would rather die for her beloved than see her hurt.
Note: The story is long and a slow burn; currently, nearly 80,000 words have already been written, and the end is not yet in sight. Updates come once or twice a week. Enjoy!
