*IN THE PROCESS OF MAKING*
Welcome to Tale of a Kingdom - The Castle At The Swamp
MALE READER
This story takes place in the Kingdom of Magincia, a small yet influential kingdom known for its brave knights and powerful magicians.
The Kingdom of Magincia is made up of five provinces, and the Central Province is called King's Town. The Eastern Province is mostly flatlands, the South is one of the most populated, the West is mostly swamplands, and the North is vast and relatively unexplored.
The Kingdom of Magincia is ruled by a shrewd King named Gareth III. According to historical scholars, he gained his power by winning the hearts and minds of his people. In reality, his true rise to power was largely based on his political savvy, bribes, and a willingness to crush anyone that stood in his way. That is not to say he isn't a good ruler. The Kingdom has prospered greatly since he took over; however, there are still a few dissidents stoking the fires of rebellion. The Kingdom of Magincia has gone through several rebellions and has had many kings over the centuries. What makes Gareth unique is that he's one of the few individuals that has managed to maintain power for this long.
Most Lords attribute his success to the unique way he governs. He allows the other provinces, for the most part, to govern themselves. Technically, the Lords of each province can elect their own governor, but the King is the one that approves the Lordships, and he also reserves the right to veto any candidate for governor he feels is not suitable to the position. Though the kingdom appears peaceful, there are always rumors of rebellion, but so far it has been just that...rumors.
You have recently been given a Lordship in the westernmost province of the Kingdom. This province is known mostly for its swamplands and inhospitable conditions. In fact, the castle in which you are taking ownership of is often referred to as "The Castle At The Swamp."

"What do you even need me for?" She asked , speaking into the darkness where she thought he was.
"I do not need you." He answered her darkly. Even though she wasn't surprised by his answer, his words still hurt. "I want you."
Blurb:
One day a mysterious handsome, but rude, man comes by Jade's home. She learns that she has been promised to him without her consent and her objections are futile. This handsome stranger is of a higher social status; as prince. Jade cannot fathom why he has decided to take her as his wife, they have never met before and what does he want with a simple girl like her?
Jade is a girl of neither noble or royal blood. She is a simple farmer's daughter who's warm at heart but has a mouth that more than often gets her into trouble. She will not accept being treated like an object but this prince seems almost immune to her sharp words and objections. The only thing he simply cannot ignore is Jade's stubborn and crude nature.
William is Jade's complete opposite. As a rude and hot-tempered young prince, he is not the most pleasant man to be around. He wastes no words were none is needed and is emotionally distant. However, he has his eyes and heart set on Jade and won't let anything, or anyone, get in his way to make her his.
Whom of the two is the most stubborn? Who will cave first? Will Jade accept her fate and marry this rude and arrogant prince? Can she even love someone like him?
