This is what she was taught. Ruling the kingdom that had been in her family name for over two hundred years, you needed to acquire strength and ruthlessness. She was taught that in order to rule correctly, you had to inflict strict punishments and demand fear and respect from your people. They had done it. They had made Grayton what it was to date. All the riches and the attached land and the respect among the realms was because of the way her forefathers had governed it. Who was she to question it? And she didn't...until a certain prisoner captivates her by the lack of fear and respect has for her. He hated her. He changed the way she ruled. But could he changed the way she felt? More importantly could she change him?
