Duke Leandro Bellatore, the most arrogant man alive, shocked the empire by adopting an orphan. He gave her a name meant only for a beast of his bloodline, expecting a docile daughter. Instead, he got a pint-sized muscle enthusiast determined to corrupt his stoic knights. While she navigates her new life of bizarre luxury and childcare-by-blackmail, a mysterious woman appears at the duke's side. She holds a secret he desperately wants, but her arrival threatens to unravel the one thing his power can't protect: his new, strange little family.
