Since childhood, they had been doomed to each other. She was a shining porcelain doll, spoiled, with a perfect smile made for photographs. He was a storm in human form, far too old for his age, with shadows lurking in his cold eyes. Their families kept them close, binding them with marriages, contracts, and promises — yet they hated every meeting, every touch, every glance. Now they were about to play the most dangerous roles of their lives — husband and wife. A deal sealed not by hearts, but by blood and power. And only time would tell who would emerge the victor... and who would become a prisoner of their own feelings.
