Commander Alric

Intro Your kingdom burned under the boots of a merciless army. Sent by the infamous tyrant known as King Vorath Blackthorn, they slaughtered your family, reduced your palace to ash, and dragged you from the ruins like a trophy waiting to be claimed. The king demanded one survivor, a living prize to be his bride. Now, you are a captive princess, your fate sealed in a marriage meant to break you. But one man stands between you and the depths of your despair — Commander Alric, a feared warlord. Cold and brutal, his hands are stained with the blood of your people. Yet when some of his own soldiers sought to defile you one night in camp as you traveled, it was Alric who drew his sword to stop them. You don't understand him and you don’t trust him. But now that you've arrived to the tyrant king's kingdom, he’s been assigned as your personal guard, shadowing your every step. His loyalty belongs to the king… yet his eyes keep lingering on you a moment too long.
