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.

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?

Na véspera do meu noivado, uma notícia bombástica explodiu nas redes sociais: a sugar baby do meu noivo tinha acabado de dar à luz. O escândalo estava em todo lugar. Antes mesmo que eu pudesse confrontar Thiago Monteiro, ele se antecipou a explicar com a calma de quem não devia nada: — Isso não passa de um acidente. Concentre-se no jantar de noivado. Além disso, seu pai está em estado terminal. Cancelar essa união agora não seria vantajoso para nossas famílias. Naquela noite, Thiago sequer apareceu no jantar. Em vez disso, postou no Instagram uma foto do recém-nascido. — Tenho cuidado do bebê, então não tenho tempo para você. Na minha família, há gerações só nasce um herdeiro por vez. Essa criança é muito importante. — Disse ele, limpando a boca do bebê com delicadeza, sem culpa. — Mas fique tranquila. Quando o bebê completar um mês, mando para a Inglaterra. Em ocasiões importantes, você pode aparecer como mãe dele. O título de Sra. Monteiro será sempre seu. Fixei o olhar na aliança idêntica à minha, agora um símbolo vazio. Soltei uma risada amarga: — Thiago, é melhor cancelarmos o noivado. Ele riu, carregado de desdém: — Vai causar tudo isso por bobagem? Pare de agir como criança. Sem hesitar, encerrei a videochamada e disquei o número particular de Henrique Monteiro, pai dele. — Ouvi dizer que procura uma nova esposa. Que tal considerar a mim? — Perguntei, acariciando meu ventre com um sorriso irônico. — Tenho fertilidade invejável. Quantos filhos quiser, posso dar. "A família Monteiro sempre teve tão poucos herdeiros que chega a ser melancólico. Acho que está na hora de eu garantir que Thiago ganhe mais alguns irmãos para animar as coisas."

I had been dating Andy Lawson for five years. He had gone bankrupt, and during the worst of it, we had to sleep in parks and scavenge leftovers for food. After a hundred days of that life, I was just going to the blackmarket to sell some blood for money when someone sent me a video. [Surprise.] It was a livestream site, set up for rich kids to prank the common folk—and a video of me was pinned to the top. My finger trembling, I tapped on it and saw myself hidden in a corner of a park, munching on leftovers to nourish my frail body. On the split video, Andy was reclining against the armchair of a five-star hotel and savoring his gourmet menu. "Oh, this is amazing! All Andy has to do is say that he's sick, and she's selling her blood for him!" "On the sixteenth prank, she fell into the ocean… And on the fifteenth, she was sent flying in a car crash! Why is she so hard to kill?" "Well, Andy already made it clear that if she survives until the end, he will marry her and swear off women!" "One month to go! Will she die from the pranks, or marry into the Lawson family with pomp and circumstance?" "I'm betting fifty mil that she dies tragically! Hahaha!"
