Despite the kings resistance, Princess Aerity believes they must make peace with the Lashed, and though shes accepted a betrothal to the man who took down the beast, she cannot help thinking about Paxton, the Lashed man who stole her heart and disappeared.

Aerity soon discovers that Paxton has joined Rosarias army in the war against her family. Though her feelings for him are still strong, her duty to her kingdom and her family is strongerespecially when her parents are kidnapped and she has to step up to the throne and once again put aside whats best for her in order to do whats best for her people.
