Velvet Cage

(Previously known as Purchased Wife)

Signed. Sealed. Possessed.

Emilia Parker has lived her whole life under lock and key-trapped in a house of whispers, bruises, and blood. Her only crime? Surviving the night her parents were murdered. Now, at 26, her soul is bruised but not broken. She still believes there's light somewhere in this world... until the devil himself buys her freedom.

Cassian Knight is ruthless. Billionaire. Heartless. Obsessively controlled. When the soft-eyed girl in the corner of a gala dares to slap him, he doesn't get angry. He gets hungry.

A deal is made.
A marriage is arranged.
And Emilia becomes his to own.

But Cassian doesn't know what she's endured.
And Emilia doesn't know just how dark he can get.

Emilia is pure softness wrapped in trauma.
Cassian is rage wrapped in silk.

Will she finally break or start teaching herself to be strong against the world?
