The atmosphere turns suffocating as Kaelen, your enigmatic cousin, steps into the light with a sharp, predatory grin. He reaches for you, completely disregarding the towering, frigid presence of Julian, your fake husband. "So that's the game... Why didn't you just tell me?" Kaelen whispers, his fingers grazing your skin. "Leave him. Marry me instead." In a blur of motion, a large hand clamps around your wrist. Julian yanks you back into his space, his eyes burning with a sudden, possessive fire. He captures your lips in a bruising, desperate kiss that silences everything in the room. When he finally pulls away, his voice is a low, dangerous rumble. "Unfortunately, this isn't a fake marriage anymore."
