I was supposed to marry his brother. He took me instead. Now I'm trapped in a savage game neither of us can win.
Rodion Volkov is the volatile one. The cruel one. The brother who enjoys violence a little too much and control even more. When his older brother's arranged marriage falls through, Rodion sees an opportunity: take the Castellano princess for himself and prove he's more than the family's attack dog.
Adriana Castellano thought she knew what she was getting—a political marriage to a cold but predictable man. Instead, she gets Rodion: unpredictable, brutal, and far too interested in breaking down every wall she's built.
He wants her submission. She gives him war. He demands her obedience. She offers him chaos. He tries to tame her. She sets him on fire.
Their marriage is a battleground. Their bed is a warzone. And somewhere between the savage vows and the brutal honesty, between his cruelty and her defiance, they discover something neither expected: a twisted kind of partnership that might just be perfect.
He's the monster she was warned about.She's the only woman who doesn't run.Together, they're either salvation or complete destruction.
A dark arranged marriage romance featuring a volatile anti-hero with anger issues, a heroine who won't back down, explicit content, intense power dynamics, and a relationship that's equal parts toxic and transformative. Read at your own risk—this one bites back.
