Reina is furious with her misfortune. Despite her desperate attempts to escape, she was captured by the knight Ranalph, who had received orders from the hated Lord Rothgwell to bring her humiliated before him.
However, the lady is determined never to accept becoming Lord Rothgwell's wife and will do anything, even make a deal with the devil, to achieve it. She proposes to the knight Ranalph to betray his orders and in return, she will help him gain power and titles of honor. All this, as long as he agrees to marry her.

However, the brave Ranalph wants much more from her than a conventional marriage. The headstrong Lady Reina may treat him disrespectfully and arrogantly, but at the same time, the blood in her veins ignites.
As tempting as Reina's proposal may be, the knight is too proud to accept it. Ranalph wants her to decide to come with him because she desires it, not out of self-interest. The pawns have now been placed on the chessboard, and the two protagonists must take the messages of their hearts very seriously.

Because their next moves will either bring them closer to what they desire or destroy them...
