One day, Valentina’s former fiancé Edeled suddenly reappears before her— no longer the sniveling young noble she once knew, but a tall, striking vagabond with a piercing gaze. “...Fiancé? What are you talking about? We broke off our engagement six years ago.” “I’m sorry, my lady, but... when did we ever break it off?” Unaware that he’d been dumped, Edeled now carries a letter ordering his own assassination— a letter sent by none other than Duke Edgar, Valentina’s soon-to-be husband. But the bigger problem? That cunning ex-fiancé refuses to let her go.
