The Princess of the Brigantium tribe and the mother to the child King of the Lopocares, Alena is constantly reminded of her rank among her people and the hatred they hold against the Roman conquerers of their land. Queen Cartimandua, leader of the Brigantium, holds no love for her daughter and instead uses her as a pawn in her own political ambitions. Through her mother's alliance with Rome, Alena is thrown into the care of the handsome and strong, yet rude and disrespectful Roman Prefect of the VII Legion, Marcus Valerius, until Cartimandua can find a suiable husband for her. Alena's headstrong, defiant attitude is no match against the pompous, arrogant Prefect. What will pass between these two polar opposites? Will Alena ever find peace in her life? Or love?
