She is the last fallen petal of the Halmervien, But he is the heir of the title. Milena Ferlin is young fine lady who lives her life to the fullest alongside her Grand Aunt Dawn and younger cousin Alena and the three of them lived happily in the Ferlin farm—only until their land started to rot causing them to cross paths with Duke de Venstein. Laurus de Venstein is the highly praised Duke of Elnervale. Grand, perfect, strict, and calculated. The duke burdened by duty, yet he still carry up to his responsibilities. His obsession towards her started on the rotting crops, it became deeper until it turned to affection. His deep attraction is fixated on Milena, despite of his engagement with Iris Olheimn of Holsgert, he carries on his feelings. As their forbidden affair progresses, Dawn reveals the truth of Milena's hidden Identity—unraveling the true history of Elnervale. Whether the poison soil was caused by nature, or could it be someone responsible? Finding out the truth, Milena had found her love was filled with betrayal. With no hope, she takes Dawn and Alena to Chelryne with faith on finding a peaceful life. Years past and war broke out. Laurus had grown as a general, still engaged to Celeste. Milena now had grown into a mature lady, now poised and obedient—not the carefree farm girl anymore, she now works as a nurse engaged to another man who is a contractor. Their paths cross once again—giving a second chance to their romance, and the issues about the Halmerviens starts to resurface again. Once the war starts to threaten them, Laurus must as well choose: Justice and love or Loyalty, title, and blood. Once all this end— will Milena remain a fallen petal or will she finally bloom?
