A contract sealed in blood. A bride sold to the most dangerous man in Athens. And a marriage that was never meant to be gentle.Athan rules the Greek underworld with an iron fist. Feared, untouchable, and utterly ruthless, he doesn't believe in love-only power, loyalty, and control. When he decides to take a wife, it's not for romance. It's strategy. A virgin bride. Obedient. Invisible. A perfect pawn to secure his empire.
Eleni was never meant to belong to a man like him. Sheltered her entire life, she dreamed of love stories-not becoming one. But when her father sells her to pay off his debts, Eleni is thrust into a brutal world where survival means marrying a monster. She expects cruelty. She expects darkness. What she doesn't expect. is protection. When a violent attack turns their wedding day into chaos and bloodshed, something shifts.
The contract between them changes. Athan stops seeing Eleni as a transaction-and starts seeing her as his. And in his world, what belongs to him is untouchable. Possessive. Obsessive. Deadly. Athan Galanis will burn Athens to the ground before he lets anyone take what's his.
