He is the one thing her enemies did not expect. Now they are both hunted.

Young and beautiful Vanora, the eldest daughter of Laird Weir, has always known what her fate would be. Having no brothers, she is destined to get married and rule after the death of her father. But she never expected that death to come so soon, nor in such a brutal way...

While returning from a hunt, Vanora and her Father are attacked by four horsemen, and Vanora flees into the woods. While riding in panic, she hears the sound of an axe and finds a mysterious giant man chopping wood. The man kills the four riders using only his axe, saving Vanora, who asks to know the name of her savior.

Vanora, now alone and vulnerable is in need of a protector, and wants to employ Rory as her guard. But Rory agrees to take her safely to her castle and nothing more.

However, Vanora's real enemy has not shown his face yet, and unbeknownst to Rory saving Vanora has made his death a matter of time.
