Synopsis

Delight Warren, a wealthy young American girl, becomes fascinated with Michael Balsic, a Montenegran nobleman on a secret mission for Austria, and accompanies him to his own country just before their impending marriage. As soon as she arrives, however, she is kidnapped by Count Stefan, Michael's brother. Stefan takes Delight to his castle where he immediately forces her into a marriage ceremony, but treats her with the utmost respect. It is discovered that Michael had only wanted to marry Delight for her money and is a traitor to his country. In the end, Delight realizes that it is Count Stefan whom she really loves, and they begin their life together.
