I simply have to follow the rules and hopefully make it to the final round, even if that means that I'll be buried six feet underground like him. __________________________________ "Things happen when you least expect them, whether they're good or bad, and in my case, it was everything and more."- Linda Smith Linda Smith, in a million years, never expected her life to take a crazy turn.

Sinister Serendipity by InfinxtyX

Lavinia has spent her life under the weight of her father's control-his perfect, well-mannered daughter, a pawn in his pursuit of power. But she is not obedient. She is not weak. And when she learns the full extent of the deal he has made in her name, she refuses to go quietly. Emerix is a man who does not ask. He takes. Cold, ruthless, and untouchable, he has built his empire on fear and precision. Lavinia is nothing more than the final piece in a long-standing arrangement, a transaction meant to tie up loose ends. But she is not the quiet, delicate thing he was promised. And he is not the type of man to let defiance go unanswered. She refuses to be owned. He refuses to be challenged. But the line between hate and something far more dangerous is razor-thin. And when fire meets ice, something has to melt.
