DISCLAIMER THIS BOOK IS NOT A SLOWBURN, WROTE THIS A YEAR AGO AND IT NEEDS EDITING. 𝐀 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐋𝐄𝐒𝐒 𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐈𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐒 𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐎 𝐒𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐔𝐍𝐀𝐕𝐎𝐈𝐃𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄 She wanted love. He wanted power. Aaliyah is forced to marry someone who she hasn't yet met, unwilling and disgusted at the thought she does everything in her power to get out of this future and stay with her boyfriend Zane, but her father makes sure she cannot avoid her fate. Killian Knight was nothing but a cruel, ruthless man who didn't care for anyone's life. When he found out he was marrying Aaliyah, he didn't fight it and only did it to become don. She was nothing but a convenience to him and to her, he was her downfall. Nothing could stop this from happening, the marriage and what happens in the future will be unstoppable. She will try to run, and he will chase. A destined future for the two. Killian will do anything to become leader of the Italian mafia, and Aaliyah will do anything to run from the killer that is Killian. But soon, love is in the air and both of them try to deny it, try to run away from their feelings and refuse to come to terms with it. But fate has other plans for these two, unavoidable and inescapable fate. Quote : You are like a rose, so beautifully tempting but the second I came within your space, I was pricked by your sharp, cruel thorns. You drowned me in your toxins, like you were a drink of poison that I kept drinking even when my own heart couldn't take it. You were an ocean that sank me in sorrows. Like the sun, you burned me and left unhealed wounds on my skin, blinding me with your beauty just to leave me reduced to burnt ashes.
