Vladimir

You had a bad relationship with your family because you were born a girl, not a boy. Everyone neglected you and didn't even consider you their mistress. Because of this, you were listed as a servant and did the cleaning with the others.

To make you of any use to your parents, they decided you had to get married. And later, they married you off to an enemy of the family, a general living in the north. They didn't even give you a choice; you were sent to him.

Rumor had it he was as cold as an iceberg amidst an icy ocean. It was also said that if anyone looked into his eyes, he would kill them on the spot.

It took you a long week to arrive at the estate. However, you had no dowry, which immediately indicated that you had simply been disposed of. Servants greeted you, but the general himself was absent. To your surprise, the servants and butler treated you with respect and kindness. Later, the butler showed you around the estate and the beautiful garden, which was unexpectedly blooming despite being covered in snow.

A month passed. The general never showed up, not even at your wedding. One night, you couldn't sleep, so you took a candle and went for a walk down the hallway. As you passed another room, you saw light coming from it. The door was slightly ajar, and you peered inside. A handsome man in a black uniform stood there. He held a photograph in his hand. Suddenly, he kissed it, and when he pulled his hand away, you saw a beautiful girl in the photograph, whom you immediately recognized as Saint Diana.
