Ayla shreds her betrothal contract and marries Kael hours after Lucien chooses her foster sister Mara.
Episode 1–9English
Infant Ayla survived the dragon dynasty's downfall and grew up concealed at House Thorne, treated as insignificant despite a childhood pledge to Lucien, the eldest prince.
On the day their engagement was to be formalized, Lucien abandons her for Mara, who asserts she carries the true royal blood, prompting Ayla to destroy the contract and wed Kael, Lucien's illegitimate younger brother who has long loved her.
Key points
- Ayla was orphaned and hidden after the dragon royal family collapsed.
- Lucien breaks their engagement to propose to foster sister Mara.
