In a world where love is a luxury and marriage is a transaction, Zobuhle Mthembu never expected to become a pawn in her father's desperate attempt to save their crumbling empire. As a successful lawyer, she built her own life-one free from the suffocating control of family expectations. But when her father strikes a deal with the ruthless Bukhosi Ndlovu, heir to one of South Africa's wealthiest dynasties, she finds herself trapped in an arranged marriage with a man she barely knows. Bukhosi is everything she despises-cold, calculating, and dangerously powerful. But behind his unreadable eyes lies a man with secrets of his own. Bound by duty and debt, their marriage is anything but conventional. Sparks fly in their battle for dominance, but beneath the tension simmers an undeniable attraction that threatens to consume them both. Will Zobuhle surrender to a fate she never chose, or will she find a way to turn the game in her favor? And when passion ignites, will they continue fighting... or will they fall?

She looked up to see a man dressed in expensive Greek clothes, probably the leader of the Spartan attack. He walked down from the chair he had been sitting on, walking towards Kalika, he put his hand on her chin, lifting it up to examine her. The man smiled suspiciously, he put his hand on her cheek. "You'll do well as a Spartan slave." He smirked. "I am not a Spartan." She sneered. The man waved his hand in front of her face, he didn't care what she thought, not the best choice. She opened her mouth, and shut it quickly, she didn't bite his hand, but was inches away from his hand. He pulled his hand back rapidly, shocked but amused. "I'm no Spartan." She boldly put her head up. "I am for the Athenians." ~*~ Kalika is a young Athenian girl. She serves others, one family in particular. There she meets someone, a boy by the name of Jayce.
