The Fake Heiress and Deceitful Duke

Abigail Florence only wanted a good job when her mother became sick, hoping that she would be of help for the family and save her mother from the rage of her father. But she was caught by a wicked and crazy nobleman and was forced into an unlikely partnership of marriage in exchange of wealth and power she could never fathom. What else could go wrong? When Dion Burke had visited the small bar in the Grothem town after his carriage suffered an accident, he had cursed his luck. But who would have thought that goddess was blessing him with treasure. The previous duke had died with no blood children but the position and all the wealth was still left for the lost daughter and her.. Husband. So when Dion found the woman living as guttersnipe, a strange and wicked plan took place in an instant. He would claim power and wealth and share it with her. But what if… the woman whose mouth could be compared to the sailor turned out to be more tempting than the wealth she offered?

Return As A Duke

"Wait for me." Jamie held Abi by her wrist and before she could yank his hands away, he pushed her on the wall. His hands came to both sides of her shoulders trapping her there. 

Her breath hitched for a second by the proximity they shared. But slowly her mind started to clear and she frowned.

"What do you think you are doing?" her voice showed the anger she felt. 

He blinked, as if he had only realized now that he was touching her inappropriately.

"I only wanted to tell you that this did not matter." when her eyes narrowed and she did not stop staring at him, he sighed and continued, 

"You brought me here to taunt you thinking it would affect me. Your world would affect me. But I want to remind you that it would not. No matter where you are from, you are my family." She moved his hands away and straightened herself.
