Having spent all his formative years in the battlefield, he's now expected to drop his sword and learn how to rule ASAP,  or Meng  might not survive the next invasion attempt. As he's busy juggling royal family members and ministers, little would he know that supernatural beings have infiltrated among the nobles returning to the capital. and they bring with them the power to influence his future and the future of his country, for better or worse.

"Well, you tell me, your majesty," she said, acid dripping heavily from her voice, "I'm of age now. What's the political panorama? To where does this mighty kingdom have the need to marry me? Who would be such an advantageous ally all of you can't wait to hand over a female slave of your own blood to please him and brainwash his children to not bite you back?" - Princess XiuYing

Just when she's decided to leave the Town, Lady Cressida Belverst is forced to marry Lord Calan Haverston, the man who coincidentally knows a way out. Agreeing to marry for all the wrong reasons, can Cressida and Calan find out where their hearts truly belong? *** It is impossible to leave the Town, but one woman is determined to escape with the help of her betrothed. Lady Cressida Belverst has always been judged as a walking scandal. Oh, how she tries (on some rare occasions) to be proper! When her parents arrange for her to marry a rich lord, Cressida has had enough. She has to leave the Town because she will not be forced to live with a man she doesn't love. But what happens if the very man she's betrothed to is the only one who can help her get out? Calan Haverston, the Lord of Easton, takes the risk and helps his betrothed by using his knowledge of the Town's secrets because he is as willing as she to stay free of marriage for reasons completely different. He has dark secrets he cannot share with her, and his life is not one he can likewise open to anyone. But what happens when she leaves after awakening desires he thought he has under control? And what happens when he finds himself longing for her? Cressida goes to a completely different place, one she has only heard in stories and read in books, with hopes of finding what her heart has always longed for. But love, mystery and secrets will chase her and it will only be a matter of time before she realizes what her heart truly desires. *This story is a standalone title in the Haverston Family series.
