I was just a pawn, traded between families in a twisted game. Promised to Vincent—a man twice my age, who filled me with dread—I knew my fate was sealed. My parents sold me into this life, locking me in a gilded cage with everything but freedom. My only escape? A desperate plan to destroy what they valued most—my innocence. But the night I sought my way out, everything went wrong. The man I thought would be my salvation turned into a nightmare, and just when all seemed lost, Aiden intervened. He’s no hero, but a man with his own demons—a loveless marriage, a wife who loathes him, and a desperate need for an heir. I seduced him, hoping to save myself, only to find a new kind of hell. As my wedding to Vincent looms, my lies unravel. I faked a pregnancy to buy time, but now that lie is my reality, and they want to take my baby. Aiden returned, offering me a lifeline, but life with him is no fairytale. His wife Patricia is venomous, and Vincent is more dangerous than I ever imagined. They’ll stop at nothing to tear us apart. But they underestimate me. I’m no weak little girl. I’ll fight, claw, and scheme to survive, to protect what’s mine. Even if it means tearing down the empires Aiden and Vincent have built. I didn’t ask for this war, but now that I’m in it, I’ll burn the whole world down to get my happily ever after.
