While his stepbrothers parade around high society in Julian’s designs, Julian remains locked in the cellar forge, known to the world only as a common servant.

Before anything else could happen, I stood up from squatting in front of him and walked toward my work table. My hands were shaking, but I tried not to show it. "Now you have time to listen to my proposal," I said firmly, trying to sound confident even though my heart was racing. I picked up the document I had placed there earlier—a simple sheet of paper, but one that could change everything. I held it up for him to see. Yes, kidnapping him had been desperate. But what I was about to offer? Even more so. "You just have to sign this marriage contract," I told him. "If we get married, I can claim my inheritance, solve my problem, and then we’ll let you go." He raised an eyebrow, amused. “And what’s in it for me? I don’t gain anything here. Why should I let you manipulate my life like that?” I clenched my fists. "You’re my hostage! Your freedom depends on me. You have no choice but to do what I say!" I snapped, voice rising with frustration. As soon as I said it, regret washed over me. I sounded like a child throwing a tantrum, and I saw it in his eyes—disappointment. Disgust. “I already have a fiancée, Kourtney. We’re getting married soon. I can’t marry you,” he said with finality. Of course I knew. I knew everything about him. I kept tabs on his life not because I wanted to, but because I had to. “I love her,” he continued. “And if I ever get married, it’s going to be with the woman I love. That’s Kim.” I bit my lower lip to stop the trembling. I was humiliated… but worse, I was heartbroken.

Cara Bennett has exactly three rules. Never ask for help. Never show weakness. And never, under any circumstances, trust a man with money. At twenty-four, she is surviving — barely. Waitressing double shifts in London to keep the lights on and her mother's medical bills from swallowing her whole. No savings. No backup plan. No room for mistakes. Then she spills coffee on Ethan Blackwood. He is cold, impossibly wealthy, and used to people falling over themselves to please him. So when Cara walks away without a single apology, he notices. And when his dying grandfather threatens to strip him of everything he has built unless he presents a fiancée within six weeks, Ethan does something he has never done before. He makes her an offer she cannot refuse. Six weeks. One performance. £500,000. Cara tells herself it is simple. Smile at his family. Wear the ring. Take the money. Walk away. But Ethan's family is nothing like she expected. Warm. Genuine. The kind of people who make her forget this was never real. And Ethan himself is nothing like the cold man he pretends to be. The problem isn't pretending to love him in front of his family. The problem is stopping when the six weeks are over.

"You could have chosen anyone. Women throw themselves at you, I'm certain of it. Women who would die to be your chosen… your mate. Why take me, someone unwilling?" "I did not choose you," he said, with a shrug. "Alexandros and Nikolaos did." "Then what's stopping you from setting me free? From choosing another?" I challenged. "I don't want another." ***** Becoming the bride of the most desired and dangerous Alpha is no fairytale, but a bloody nightmare.
