A week before my wedding, I caught my fiancé in the fitting room with my best friend, wearing my wedding dress.

Because Dominic doesn't just want a wife on paper. He wants control and obedience. And he wants me in his bed, under his rules, and eventually, in his heart.

“I now pronounce you husband and wife,” the priest announced, a knowing smirk tugging at his lips. “You may now kiss your bride.” Enzo Caruso’s jaw tightened. His new wife was nothing like the woman he expected. “Don’t expect me to be gentle,” he warned. He didn’t wait for permission.

A woman with sharp teeth, a sharper tongue, and a soul too broken to be tamed. Their marriage was supposed to be a temporary alliance. Until hatred turned into fascination. Fights became the only moments they understood each other. Till neither of them could walk away.

He told me he wouldn't call. I told him he would. I was right. He pushed me away. I pushed back.

Until his fingers are in my hair and his mouth is on my throat and every rule he's ever made about keeping people out goes up in smoke. "I can't promise you a future." "Then promise me tonight."
