"I now pronounce you husband and wife," he announces.  "You may kiss the bride." The priest finishes.

My husband leans in close to me and I feel his lips brush against mine before they finally rest on the side of my mouth. 

It lasts one second.

And then, he parts away.

•••

Most of the romance novels end at an alter - but Lillian's story starts at one.

Being married to the millionaire James Clark was not something Lillian Vince signed up for when she decided to visit her parents one afternoon, right after her college classes ended.

Yet, life had been waiting to spring this surprise on her. 

She could have said no, but her parents' tears were all she considered before agreeing, despite her brain screaming a big no. 

James is anything but an ideal husband. He left the responsibility of finding a way to end the engagement before it even happened on her. But, despite every effort, she walks down the aisle.

The problem? There's no agreement that says they can break their marriage off. It's a lifetime deal.

Being trapped into this marriage, follow Lillian's story towards emancipation.

"My Love, I apologise and beg for your pardon a thousand of times" I rubbed her beautiful strong current hair. Lillian turned her head and saw the healer rubbing a heat stone on pale skin, "Just set me free Theo" she whispered before her eyes closed. "I can't Lillian, I am selfish with you" I kissed her head thousands of times, she was the women I wanted to marry, she was the women to be the mother of my child. "Your Majesty, she needs a lot of resting, shall we take her upstairs?" The healer asks. "Yes, place her in my chambers- make sure your Queen knows nothing of this" I commanded when two guards lifted up her body and walked up the stairs. "You love her your majesty?" The healer asks. "I do" I admitted. "Don't mind me saying your Majesty, but she is clearly in pain. Why won't you just let her live her life?" he looks at me. "Because she mine and only mine, no other man will see her bare or love her like I do." I growled red hot anger burning through my head if I thought of my beauty in the arms of another man. ---- Highest ranks - #24 in Historical Fiction- 13/06/2016 #14 in Historical Fiction- 13/07/2016 #13 In Historical Fiction- 10/04/2017 Bad spelling and Grammer, please don't hate I will improve in time.

She repeats with no hesitation. Cold shiver trickles through me. ... 18 years old Sanaya Frances, grew up in an orphanage, is finding ways to earn more to gather money for her college tuition fee.
