Binds Of Parchment

A marriage forged in bloodlines and contracts was never meant to survive love.

Promised to Ominis Gaunt before she ever knew his name, Eveline Black grows up believing herself invisible-quiet, brilliant, and overlooked by the very house that should have protected her. When the Gaunts come to collect what was promised, survival becomes something far more dangerous than obedience.

What follows is not a love story born of choice, but one carved out of captivity, sacrifice, and defiance-where pregnancy becomes a battleground, family legacies turn lethal, and love is learned in whispered encouragements, shared scars, and the quiet act of staying.

This is the story of two people who were never meant to endure-and the children who prove that they did.
