Anri lived on her own in a village away from the hustle and bustle of the city, not knowing that her peaceful life will soon come to an end when she was forced to come out of her shell.
It turns out that it was all a lie.
She is a prisoner... in a cage made by someone. To protect her. To shelter her. To keep her out of any man's sight.
As soon as Cassian Markov laid eyes on the beauty of the eighteen-year-old Anri, he made it his life's mission to have her. She's the most desirable woman he had ever seen so he did everything to hide her from public view-and that means creating a remote village for her to live in; hiring security to go undercover as villagers to protect what's his.
He practically bought her from her parents. He spent millions just to provide her everything, to give her the fairytale life she wanted.
Because he knew her. She wanted a fairytale. She wanted to meet her prince charming in a field while she was out picking daisies. And if that's what she wants, she'll get it.
It may be a manipulation to get her to fall for him but it doesn't matter. Cassian only made sure that Anri will end up in his arms one way or another. Why make the process long when he can easily afford to have her, to give her the happily ever after that her heart desired? Anri is worth any price. He will gladly trade his soul for her if it's necessary. That's how fucked up he is.
"She's mine... and if she wanted me to burn the whole world for her enjoyment, I will gladly do so. The human race should be scared of what I'm willing to do for her. Only her."
