Flora has been abused by her family and has lived alone in a small cabin deep within the forest on their estate, surviving through hunting and sheer resilience.
One day, her father suddenly brings her a marriage proposal.
Her prospective husband is Alfred Granville, a frontier count rumored to hate women—and to make matters worse, the marriage is only a one-year contract!?

However, after a certain incident, the relationship between the two begins to change…
A classic Cinderella-style romance from Shōsetsuka ni Narō begins!
