"You agreed to marry me so easily," I said, my voice light, almost teasing. "How do you know I'm any different? That I won't try to trap you, like her?" Xenon turned to me slowly, his expression unreadable. For a moment, I thought he wouldn't answer, but then his eyes locked onto mine, sharp and icy. "You could never trap me," he said, his voice calm but slicing through the air like a blade. I blinked, caught off guard by how effortlessly ruthless he sounded. His gaze didn't waver. "Unlike her, you lack the power, the cunning, and the capability to even try." The words hit me hard, but before I could evenprocess the sting, he added, "And as for trapping me with a child... that would require something I'd never give you." My chest tightened as his meaning sank in. He wouldn't give me a child because he wouldn't ever sleep with me. His expression remained cold, detached. "Don't mistake this marriage for something it's not, Ada. You're here for convenience, nothing more."

By Kiki .L She met him before she even knew his name. It was supposed to be just another night-scrubbing tables, dodging sleazy comments, and surviving the greasy hellhole she worked at to pay for law school. But when she approached the table of seven silent men, cloaked in wealth and something far colder, she felt it-that shift in the air, like a predator had just gone still. "We're closing in 34 minutes," she snapped, exhausted and done pretending. One of them stared. He didn't speak. He didn't blink.
