I'm living with my Mother-in-law!

It's well-known that living with one's mother-in-law is basically hell. So marrying a poor merchant with no family should be an easy way to avoid that mess, right? That was Elaen's plan until she realizes her husband, Ahen, lied: he is actually the son of the empire's ferocious Grand Wizard, Kanessis Corenea, and she must move into her palace! Though intimidated at first, Elaen realizes Kanessis is nothing like the horror stories, and becomes enamored with her charisma and unexpected kindness. The real problem is Ahen’s ulterior motives for their marriage, which Elaen only discovered after the fact. With Kanessis by her side, Elaen is ready to face any challenge; perhaps living with her mother-in-law was the best thing to happen to her after all!
