When one dinner changes everything for the gentle, kind Annalise Armillo, she finds herself in church the next day with a different identity and now to be married to the most loathsome person ever, and for a man who enjoys other people's misery, breaking a pure-hearted, sweet woman like Anna was going to give Nicolás all of the satisfaction he craved, the only thing he doesn't plan on is the innocent-looking woman's ability to arouse the dirtiest desires in him. “... Till death do us apart.” It was a threat.

In Her Arms

He opened the door slowly, his heart flailing as he did. He could taste fear in all of its acidity, the sourness burned at the back of Nicolás's throat and he felt every part of him hold stiffly.

Her eyes were wide with fear and unshed tears when he swung the door to reveal her. She fell into him, clutching him tightly.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." She repeated over and over again.

Nicolás's hands laid limply by his side. He still was engulfed in shock but when she freed him slightly, he managed to utter. "What did you just say?"

She pulled away from him, her eyes looking up at him, tears pouring from them.

"I am sorry that happened to you, Nicolás." 

He wasn't dreaming.

He hadn't imagined it. This was happening.

"What do you know?" He asked sharply, taking a step away from her. He saw her flinch at his words but he didn't care.
