Years ago I had my revenge, and reclaimed my kingdom from the Usurper who murdered my father. Edeva Delsor, his only daughter, managed to escape me. When she is found nearly twelve years later, I agree to marry her rather than execute her. But the moment our eyes meet on our wedding day, I realize I want her more than anything else, even my own crown. I must tread lightly though. She isn't like me. She is kind, gentle, merciful and giving. I am cruel and dangerous, especially with my dark powers, and the demon in my head who wants her as much as I do. But we will fight to protect her from those who seek to bring her harm. I will use dark magic if I must. She is mine. She is ours.
