He's demanding, and he wants me—in his bed, obeying his every command.
All my life, I wanted to be loved. Instead, I was ignored.
My father gave me what I wanted so he could go back to ignoring me. Once I understood that, life became easier.
When he arranged to marry me off to the son of his biggest ally, I didn't mind.
Marco was the older brother of my best friend, and honestly, he made me burn.
I wanted to belong to him. I wanted in his life, in his bed, and definitely in his heart.
It didn't quite work out that way.
So, I left.
Then, one really bad decision lands me in hot water.
Marco steps in.
He thinks he's a monster.
He's wrong. He's my destiny.
