Elise enters into a suspicious contract for her sick mother.
Arriving at the castle deep in the forest, she encounters a beautiful swan by chance.
Captivated by the swan, she tries to be kind to it, but the swan scoffs at her every attempt.
On top of that, she ends up having to bathe the castle’s owner, a task she never anticipated.
“Aren’t you going to wash the lower part?”
“I’m sorry. It’s my first time.”
“I suppose you intend to scrub me until tomorrow morning then.”
The arrogant and beautiful Duke, Armion.
Despite his torment, Elise perseveres, thinking of her mother and the beautiful swan.
But… why does she keep thinking of the ‘swan’ the more she sees him?
