Willow
Peartree House. A home where girls were taught discipline. A home where they were taught how to please powerful men.
But I was different. I never understood why I wasn't trained like the other girls, but I was content with being a shadow no one noticed.
Until that changed, and a man with a black heart claimed me for himself.
He told me he'd never love me, and that my only use was to please him and give him an heir.
He was cruel. Vicious. A man I hated with every part of me. A man I could never fall in love with.
Or so I thought...
 
James
Legion. A powerful secret society I was destined to lead one day.
Until my father threw a curve ball. If I didn't marry and produce an heir, he would hand over my legacy to someone I despised.
I didn't want a wife, but I wanted Legion. So I agreed to his terms.
She was a means to an end. I would never love her. Never show her affection. Never need her for anything more than to give me an heir.
Or so I thought…
