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?

"I just need to pretend to take advantage of you," She confirmed. "And you will act as though I have you wrapped around my little finger. Right?"
"Yes." He slowly let out a breath in relief when he realized she was going to agree.
"I can do that for you."

She met his gaze with her own uncertain one. She didn't need anything from him, and she didn't want to make their marriage a series of deals. She didn't have feelings for him but it felt odd. Yet, she knew that if she were to help him just because she was his wife, he might take advantage of her. There was no telling with a man as sinister as him.
She was still deep in thought when his lips landed on hers. Her eyes widened. "What was that for?"
"If you look at me like that, you run the risk of getting kissed." He pecked her lips yet again.
