Mary wakes in the darkness of a dungeon after being abducted by a
fearsome warrior. Suddenly her prison door opens to reveal a large man
hidden in black shroud. He calls himself Michael, the Dark One. As a
favour to his friend Magnus (from Legendary Warrior), Michael has come
to rescue her. They travel across unknown territory seeking safety, and
Mary falls in love with Michael's strength and kindness. But when they
finally reach the protection of Magnus's home, it is to find that the
warrior who had first abducted her has issued a decree: wed him, or the
innocent villagers will die. Mary now must choose between her love for
Michael and the lives of innocent people. Will Michael be able to save
her again...or will a dark secret destroy them both?
