Ravaged

Cydale, a blacksmith's son, spends years being tormented for the amusement of a sadistic young lord until the day Aiden declares his love and intent to win him. Even if Cydale could trust his former tormentor, Aiden's father would have him killed before allowing his son to be with a commoner. Death may be the only way for him to escape the whims of Aiden and his father.
