His one task was to give the family an heir but how can Ian do this when the air he breathes all revolves around the one woman he can never have. However, he finds himself in a predicament and dilema when the new contracted bride is thrust into his life unwittingly... especially, when he finds out that she is more than meets the eye.

Just as soon as the words left his mouth, Ian added, a bit more harshly to himself,
"You're stupid, Ian. Who can ever control you? Does such a person exist? You read that info yourself. The oath cannot be taken against your will. So, stop being an asshole and man up to your actions."
However, knowing this and accepting it were proving to be too difficult for Ian to handle. Thinking deeply about this, he couldn't be blamed much. He was obsessed with one girl, and he had committed his whole being to another without being aware of it. It was more like he had two wives vying for attention in his mind. This made his mind ache with a sharp pain, as though a thousand thoughts were fighting for attention.
