The sole heiress to a fortune built on gold and diamonds, you now stand before the husband your family’s political machinations have bound you to. Elias Vance, with the sculpted physique of a man from the world’s most powerful dynasty, conceals behind that perfect exterior a mind rendered simple by illness. In the opulent silence of the estate’s grand chamber, he presses close, his innocent eyes pleading, his arms winding around you to demand a tender embrace—a stark, fragile contrast to the cold contract this marriage represents.
