She called him a monster.Now, that monster wanted to marry her.The exclusive rooftop lounge buzzed with quiet conversations, but Elena’s focus was locked on the man seated across from her. Adrian Blackwood was as infuriatingly composed as ever, a glass of whiskey in his hand, his tailored suit immaculate. The city lights stretched behind him, a kingdom he controlled with a mere flick of his wrist."You look like you want to stab me," Adrian mused, his lips curving into the kind of smirk that had made CEOs crumble.Elena crossed her arms, refusing to let his arrogance unnerve her.
