All he ever wanted was freedom… and love. Twenty two year-old Noah has lived a life trapped behind bruises and locked doors. Raised by a cruel father and an indifferent stepmother, his days have been filled with silence, pain, and the desperate hope that one day—someone would see him. Save him. But salvation never came. Instead, he’s sold—like property—to a powerful mafia boss under the guise of an arranged marriage. Cold, ruthless, and feared across the underworld, Damian Moretti doesn’t need love. What he needs is a husband who can serve as a political pawn in a war of families. Noah is everything Damian didn’t expect: fragile yet unyielding, terrified yet defiant. And while their marriage begins in chains, something begins to shift in the shadows of their forced union. As secrets unravel and danger stalks every corner, Noah must decide: will he be caged forever by the choices of others—or rise and claim the life and love he was always denied? In a world ruled by blood and power, can a boy who was never wanted become the heart no one can live without?

"Ya ampun, Mirah!" pekik Mama sambil menatap sedih pecahan piring di meja makan. Aku tak sengaja menyenggol hingga terjatuh saat membereskan meja makan tadi. "Kerja gitu aja nggak becus? Heran Mama, apa sih yang buat Arfen tergila-gila sama kamu? Cantik dan pintar dandan saja nggak cukup, Sayang! Sebagai seorang istri kamu juga harus pintar mengurus rumah, paham? Terutama jika kamu masih numpang hidup di rumah mama mertua. Oke? Arfen, Arfen! Apa sih yang sudah merasuki dia sampai harus nikah sama kamu yang ternyata wow ... Nggak jelas!" Lagi dan lagi, aku hanya bisa menunduk dalam-dalam, menahan amarah. Sakit sekali rasanya tetapi tak mampu berbuat apa-apa. Jangankan membela diri, mengangkat wajah barang satu inci pun aku tak berani. Aku yakin kalau Mama sudah marah, iblis sekalipun pasti ketakutan.

"I heard that you agreed to marry that dog.", Alaric hissed, still trying to handle the news that he came to know early morning. "Leave me, blood-sucking leech," Moana growled angrily, but not once did she try to fight with him when he had caged her between the walls and him. "First answer me, why did you say YES?" "To move on in my life. You rejected me by saying that ‘you’re worth more than a one-night stand’. So, here I am, planning for my marriage, having a family, and most importantly, to get over my attraction for you." The next thing, she knew, Alaric’s ice-cold lips crashed against her warm lips, like ice against fire. He expected a slap for kissing her without permission, but instead, she kissed him back. * * Moana and Alaric agreed to a one-night stand when they couldn’t ignore their attraction for one another, but before they could have gone ahead as per their plan, Theodore, Alaric’s best friend, and Moana’s brother-in-law interfered, warning Alaric to stay away from her. Alaric swore not to break his friend’s trust and ignored Moana like the plague, but his patience snapped when he learned that she was getting married. At the same time, Moana was irked by Alaric’s loyalty toward Theodore’s friendship. She tried to move on from the little attraction that she had for him, only to find him acting like a possessive Alpha male even when he was a vampire. * Follow me on ‘authorsprachi12’ for updates.
