Milos, a reckless paladin-in-training and son of a ruthless duke, never expected to raise a child at the tender age of fifteen. Especially not with Noema, his father’s rejected favorite. Drawing on her secretive past, Noema survives the duke’s cruelty by staying quiet and obedient. But when she’s forced to care for Milos’s infant son, trapped in the same prison wing as the baby’s disgraced father, she finds freedom instead.
