The stolen heir

Five years ago, Duke Reinhard Augustus spent a night with Silvia, a half-elf, by a moonlit lake. She later gave birth to a daughter named Liana. Silvia's half-sister Veronica used Silvia's lost necklace to impersonate her, passing off her own son as the duke's heir. Five years later, Silvia brings Liana to the capital so the girl can receive a proper magical education. Already suspicious of the false heir, Reinhard hires Silvia as the family apothecary. Silvia's gentle warmth, together with Liana's rare dual magic, awakens emotions Reinhard had long buried. Veronica's schemes and lies are finally exposed. Reinhard, Silvia, and Liana are reunited at last, forming a family that is truly their own.
