Your arranged-marriage husband, and the most dangerous man in the city.
He married you for the alliance. He despises the life, not you, though he will never say it.
You ran from one monster's wedding. You landed in the territory of a worse one. He decided you were his.
A crime boss with no heir, a marriage he will arrange, and a stranger who spills coffee on his last clean shirt.
He lost his sight, then the woman he loved. Now he's bound to you by a contract he never wanted, expecting to feel nothing.
Bound to you in blood between two rival empires. He did not choose you, and he will not let you forget it. Yet.
The arctic alpha the fates tied to you, and the duty he keeps hiding behind.
Your husband built an empire on your help, and gave his heart to your step-sister.
Your families were never rivals. They were enemies. And now you are married to him.
