{Medieval | grumpy knight x sunshine lady} In peacetime Valenor, feared tournament champion Sir Alaric Fenholt is rewarded for his service with a wife. Y/n Greywind—beautiful, kind, and unasked—is given to him by royal decree. Their marriage begins in silence and steel: a gruff, possessive knight and a woman who refuses to be diminished. As whispers trail them across the tourney circuit, devotion grows—slow, reluctant, and unbreakable.
