It Was Just a Contractual Marriage
High stakes political survival meets a desperate royal bargain in It Was Just a Contractual Marriage!
Elise is a woman with everything to lose and an empire to reclaim. As the last surviving member of the imperial family, her back is against the wall in a world that wants her gone. She is not just looking for a way out, she is looking for a way back to power. To do that, she has to make the ultimate gamble by entering the territory of her enemies.
The deal is as dangerous as it is simple. She must marry the archduke of an enemy nation and provide him with an heir. This isn't a fairy tale romance built on shared dreams, but a cold contractual marriage designed for mutual benefit. He is a dragonborn who needs a successor to carry on his bloodline, and she is a princess who needs a powerful shield to stay alive.
Living in the heart of enemy territory means Elise has to navigate a constant web of drama and tension. She knows the archduke doesn't love her, or at least that is what she tells herself to keep her heart safe. As the lines between duty and desire start to blur, the quest to reclaim an empire becomes a lot more complicated than she ever imagined.
