GENERAL'S BRIDE Genre: Psycho-Thriller • Dark Romance • Blood & Gore • Forced Marriage • Mature • Adult Calixto Joaquin Ferrer-once a decorated military general, now the ruthless head of a global syndicate-rules both the underworld and the corporate empire of Devon Enterprise with an iron hand. To the world, he is a cold, disciplined CEO. In the shadows, he is a predator feared by criminals themselves. His mother wants only one thing from him: A wife. A grandchild. A legacy. Calixto finds it ridiculous-until he sees Angela Samañiego again. His childhood obsession. His first trauma. His twisted, unfinished love. But she is no longer the modest, gentle girl he once claimed as his own. Angela now rides a motorcycle like she owns the night, wears clothes that test his sanity, and pops lollipops like she doesn't care whom she tempts. She is reckless, untamed, and too wild for her own good. And Calixto decides- If the world changed her, he will change her back. By force, if necessary. The Ferrer and Samañiego families have always been intertwined, their fathers best friends since youth. So when Calixto asks for Angela's hand, her father agrees instantly... despite Stella, Angela's younger sister, who shamelessly desires Calixto for herself. Angela doesn't want marriage. She doesn't want a man like him. She says it will never work. Calixto does not care. He wants her. He will have her. And no sister, no refusal, no rebellion will stop him. Until Angela wakes up one morning- naked, bruised, and lying in Calixto's bed... with a wedding ring on her finger. Confused. Trapped. Bound to a man whose love is as dangerous as his enemies. Calixto calls it destiny. Angela calls it hell. And between bloodshed, obsession, and a war of hearts, neither of them will come out the same. A dark romance where love is possession, desire is a weapon, and a general will burn the world just to keep his bride.

A complete opposite of me. I never had a need for a wife but with every innocent touch, every stupid smile, every word of hers my walls break down until I am left yearning for her with an intensity I can't even comprehend.
