Protect Isabella while keeping his true identity concealed.
Roland Valen survives a purge that erased his lineage by posing as a groom at House Astra, where noblewoman Isabella shelters him without knowing his past. For two years he suppresses the lethal polo techniques that once terrified kingdoms, shoveling hay while hunters search for his bloodline. When a ruthless foreign prince turns his conquest toward Isabella and her house, Roland faces the moment his anonymity can no longer hold.
