Beyond the Walls of the Duke's Mansion

Aristasha, the noble lady of House Verdic, is adored by both the Iron-Blooded Duke, Evan, and his sword-master brother, Leon. Yet despite her status and beauty, and the years since she first made her debut, she has never taken a lover. Curious about passion and eager to explore the pleasures denied to her, she secretly arranges to meet a gigolo—only to be intercepted by Evan himself. "If you wish to learn, and I refuse to let a stranger touch you... wouldn't it be best if I taught you myself?" From that night on, the men she once saw as brothers begin to look upon her with something far more seductive than mere protectiveness.
