Urareta Akasabi no Hanayome wa Ryuukishi-sama no Saiai to naru

With her rust-colored hair, a young noblewoman spent her entire life as an outcast, never receiving love from her family or respect from those around her. In the end, she was sold for a hefty sum, sent off to a remote region as a bride to a man she had never met before. But her new husband was no ordinary man—he was the ruler of the harsh borderlands and the commander of the Dragon Knights, belonging to a lineage of legendary warriors. From the very first meeting, it was clear that this marriage was nothing but a contract to ensure the continuation of a powerful bloodline. She was given a single duty every month, in a marriage that felt devoid of emotion. "Even if you're afraid, I won't let you back out." Yet, as time passed, this formidable man, who once seemed cold and distant, began to see something different in his new wife. Her gentleness, patience, and purity started to break down the walls around his heart, and soon, he could no longer hide his growing feelings... Will this marriage remain a mere contract, or is fate preparing a love she never expected?
