In Love and Duty

An arranged, loveless marriage, Ralone and Omari rule his kingdom like strangers. With a foundation of mistrust and secrets these two pledge to stay apart forever.
Omari sinks deep into depression, as she ponders the reality of her existence, forever trapped by duty, never to be loved, while Ralone is haunted by the past, even though he wishes for a real future with Omari.
Sometimes, the only one who can heal your heart is the one who broke it in the first place, but finding your way back to love means you have to learn the hardest lesson of all, that only forgiveness can heal.
