Synopsis
The little duchess' life seems to be perfect, especially after her wedding with the most desired bachelor in the kingdom, the one who drove out all the monster from the Black Wood. Despite her father's initial protests, Iris is able to marry the love of her life and feels that the rest of her life will only be bliss. But not everything is what is seems at her new home and little by little secrets revail themselves, making Iris understand the reasons behind her father's protests.
----------------
Her wedding night found Iris more nervous than she thought. The maids bathed her and changed her into a nightgown which was semi transparent, the silhouette of her body being evident throughout the thin material. After the maids left she laid down on her bed, but only for a second. Her nerves didn’t let her lay there, she couldn’t even sit on it as she knew what was to come. Or at least she thought she knew as she, like all noble girls, was taught about the duty of a wife in the bedroom. But she didn’t know about the tingling in her stomach and the heat coming from inside her from those lessons. No, those were the feelings her now husband showed her with only a kiss. That thought made her touch her lips with her finger. She blushed when she remembered the kiss, the one that started all of this.
It happened only a month ago, on a dark night with no stars in the sky and the moon hiding behind the dark clouds, promising a heavy rain. But not a single drop fell yet and the castle's garden was lit by small torches which trew trembling shadows on the ground. She could remember his hands touching her arched back and caressing it while his other hand touched her cheek before sliding behind her head, entangled in her beautifully done hair. He looked passionately into her eyes, his green eyes making her forget about anything else. The smell that came from him drew her closer until their lips touched and she closed her eyes, letting herself drown in that blissful feeling, in those hard arms. He made her forget everything outside their embrace.
They forgot where they were and the reason they were there. They forgot about the ballroom full of chatting people, full of music and dance. It was only them at that moment, in the garden.
“You son of a bitch!” a cry woke them and they separated from each other. “You will pay for this!”. The man that was screaming at them approached and before Iris realized what was happening, he punched her partner hard.

Came for the steamy scenes, but remained for the story. It's somthing strange about their relationship. I don't think he is the ML, but I's dying to know who is.
Love the story and I hope the misunderstandings clear up soon. They were so lovely in the beginning. I want more of them together. More action is needed.
The book is really cool, just by the synopis, it already looks so good..i love everything about it and already added to my library.[img=recommend]
Love the story so far, I want more romance. The couple seen to get to know each other, they are of couse newlywed, but I hope they will get to communicate some more. Good story, interesting characters. Keep up the good work and give us more chapters.
Great book! In fact, I'm at loss for words to review this novel. The author's writing style is great! The way she describes everything in the novel allows me to picture it in my head and it's like I'm watching a movie in my head and not reading a novel. Especially, the kiss in the first chapter. I felt like I could see how it all happened. Your writing quality is probably the best thing in the novel. Also, the world background is GREAT. And, the sypnosis was amazing. Great job👍👍
I love the storyline and the character design. I enjoyed it so much. Good work
The story was engaging; it drew me in and kept me reading. The background and explanation are thorough. Good job, author.

The story is written in a beautiful way. The characters and plot both are intriguing. I read first six chapters and looking forward to read more chapters. Keep up the good work author 👍
The story is fresh, the characters well-written, and the concept seems unique. You have done a great job author! Keep it up
I really enjoyed reading your work. The characters are complex and not what they seem at first glance. The world building is great as well. Keep up the good work!
Not super into romance but the story was pretty good regardless and the characters were all decent. I love the depth there is to the world, although it was pretty hard to comprehend hearing it all so suddenly; Keep up the good work!
That was a nice read. Not gonna lie, I really enjoyed when reading it. The storyline seems promising and I like how descriptive the writing was. Keep it up, author

The story i quite interesting, but the updates take too long. It's already been a month since the last chapter and I'm loosing interest in this story. I hope it updates quicker.
A good read! The author displays the events so lovely I can imagine them, like seeing a movie. It brings the curiosity of what will happen next. Thumbs up!
Thank you all for your reviews! I hope you'll follow Iris' path as long as you cand because it'll be a bumpy one! Not everythinf is what it seems and more is to come. More magic, more fear, more sadness but more friendship and love as well! 😊
