Fated Love

Dante My father didn't ask if I wanted a wife. He announced it at the dinner table. Now I'm promised to the daughter of the man who should be my enemy. She's beautiful, defiant, and every word out of her mouth makes me want to silence her. With my hands. With my lips. With everything I swore I wouldn't give. This marriage isn't love. It's war in a white dress. And I don't know if I'll destroy her... or let her destroy me. Sophia I was raised to smile, obey, and sacrifice. But I won't go quietly into a life I never chose. My new husband is cold, ruthless, carved from shadows I've feared my whole life. Yet when his eyes burn into me, I feel heat I can't outrun. The closer he gets, the more I want what I shouldn't. One kiss could ruin me. One night could break us both. And once we cross that line, there's no way back.
