A cough halted her in place. "It would be unseemly for the wife of a prince to sleep outside." The general huffed, "Fine, then where will I sleep?" Was the man truly still mad about almost accidentally murdering him? Faye rolled her eyes.  The prince shrugged lazily. "Well, General Faye, I'm sure you soldier-kind aren't unfamiliar with cold nights on the ground." If she refused to act like a lady, then he had no need to act like a gentleman. "YOU-!" He smiled sweetly at the murderous expression on her face."Good night, dear wife." And flipped over like a fat seal, snuggling into the warm blankets.  --- Lord Nikolai is the second Prince of the Eburnean Kingdom. After the imprisonment of his elder brother, he was sent to govern the borderlands of Feldgrau while his stepmother, Queen Rewanna, controlled the kingdom, hoping to place her own son on the throne.  Lord Nikolai, despite his handsome charm, was known to be physically weak and cold. Hence, his moniker the Ice Prince. But underneath the facade, Nikolai works desperately to save his brother and plot revenge against the queen. His plans are thrown in disarray when he is suddenly betrothed to the barbarian warrior princess, General Faye. Despite her wild beauty, the woman knows nothing of court etiquette and would sooner roll over and die than speak any softer than a bellow.  One is fiery and brash while the other is quiet and cold, their marriage is a political move and both of them know it... but feelings have a way of growing in the most unexpected of places. Trouble brews on the horizon, but can the fiery General melt the Lord's ice, cold heart?
