The Helio's Bride
A princess with a twisted past. When her fate takes an unfortunate turn, she is thrown off her pedestal and into the web of marriage with the bloodthirsty king of the enemy kingdom. Faced with life and death choices, Delaney must decide whether to side with the enemy—her new husband—or her family who betrayed her. __ As the son of the sun goddess, Darius finds his life unnecessarily long and boring. Until he meets his bride, Delaney, the feisty, fiery princess who is rumored to have rejected suitors by the dozen, the only female descendant of his arch nemesis, and a demon princess. When they get married, will he use her in his quest for revenge, or fall in the trap of her charm like every other male does?

Cassius observed the dilemma on the couple's faces and waited for them to send each other silent messages using their eyes before he asked, "You are not planning to change your mind, are you? Queen Delaney did promise her alliance to Yorucia in exchange for my protection."
"Don't worry. I do not go back on my word. Although it does make me curious. How did you get the upper hand against your brothers?"
He maintained his kind smile as though what he was about to say was in the slightest bit kind. "When dealing with rebellious brothers, you only need to gain the favor of the few you can manage to convince. As for the others, their blood can be used to decorate the battlefield."
She wanted to retch. How did she even ally with such a man? Was she out of her mind?
