Aelfrieda lives in a family filled with neglect and violence.

One day, she helps someone in trouble and meets a man named Kyle.

Not knowing that he is ‘Callon Ash,’ the wealthiest man on the continent, Ael finds herself increasingly drawn to him as he acknowledges her abilities and shows concern for her.

One day, while harboring these feelings of love alone, Ael discovers that her father has arranged to sell her off as a bride for a cheap price.

Though she tried to accept the marriage, Ael flees to Callon to escape the atrocities of the man who came to buy her.

And Callon ends up revealing his true identity to everyone in order to protect Ael…

That’s how it should have been.
