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?
The day kept getting worse.
Zephyr had left without saying a word of goodbye. If there wasn't already enough proof of how upset he was, this was it. Marlena had watched his servants carry his trunks to the carriage. She'd waited and hoped he would agree to talk to her before he left. Alas, all he'd done was shoot her a stare she couldn't quite comprehend, then he'd left.
Although she had wanted to break things off with him before he proposed, this was not how she wanted it to be. She didn't want him hurt. He was one of the best men she'd ever met and a part of her believed if she never met Destrian, she might have liked him instead. But she didn't get to choose who to like or how things panned out with the one she liked.
Speaking of the one she liked, she couldn't get over her disbelief when she finally received his letter, just when she thought the worst had already happened.
