When Athena Solana and Tobias Landon were forced into an arranged marriage, chaos was inevitable. They barely knew each other, aside from the fact that they both came from old money and even older expectations. Tobias was defiant by nature. Marriage was never part of his plan. As the CEO of his father's empire, he had it all: wealth, women, and complete freedom. But the one condition tied to his luxurious lifestyle? Marry Athena. Athena was grace wrapped in gold. Kind-hearted and composed, she was everything Tobias wasn't. And yet, neither of them wanted this union. To them, love was a fantasy, and marriage was just another business transaction, especially in their world, where billionaires married for power, not passion. But as love, loyalty, and legacy collide, buried truths rise to the surface and threaten to change everything they thought they knew. Trigger Warning ⚠️ this book contains talks of sexual assault and violence. Please read at caution.

Cordelia, who was already beyond the marriageable age, quickly agreed upon the arrival of a marriage proposal from one of the most influential and well-known noblemen. She wedded Leon expecting a pleasant married life, only to be greeted with cracks and mishaps. A beautiful woman who is only a noble by name And a dashing man who is a noble with power.

Do not expect love in this marriage." "And within two years, if you fail to birth an heir, we will have a divorce."

However, as the said year approaches without an heir, Cordelia slowly prepared herself to sign the divorce papers and leave. But why is it that Leon, who had treated her badly from the very beginning, was suddenly desperate to make her stay?
