Bound by Betrayal

I owed my brother my life. My loyalty.

He'd saved me from pain and lifelong scars more times than I could count, taking the brunt of the demons haunting me.

When the time came to return the favor and settle a debt, I never imagined my sacrifice would

leave me bound in marriage to a woman who would consume my heart.

Amalia Montesinos.

I fell for her fire. Her rage.

The soft pieces of her very few knew.

Loving her was never part of the contract.

My purpose was clear-ensure she inherited her empire, then go our separate ways.

But I had lived at the edge of death for so long that I'd forgotten what it felt like to be alive.

Until her.

My wife.

I'd be damned if I ever let her go.
