It has been mentioned several times. She can't cast spells, only curses. Witches who can only cast curses are considered outcasts. But her clansmen didn't know that of course, because her family hid the truth.
"Did you think that I would just let you off the hook for hiding my son all these years?" His voice was cold and low, and a sinister darkness danced in the depths of his amber eyes.
The presence of a smile on his lips only made him appear more dangerous.
Insanely dangerous.
The fading sun outside cast dark hues across the sky, which stood in stark contrast to the bright golden orbs of the man.
"Do I look like someone forgiving? I suppose not."
What was he planning? She could tell. He had wicked plans all over his head.
"Don't fret," his voice softened with a cruel sense of delight. "I have no intention of killing you. Death is a lame way of paying what you owe. I prefer something more interesting than that."
She was powerless against this devious man, Sienna knew that. He was right. She was here in his territory, unguarded and vulnerable. She had no one to lean on but herself, so she couldn't afford to react hastily.
Her son needed her by his side, and she wouldn't let this man tear them apart. She had to stay in this place no matter what. She didn't care what plan this devil had stored for her, but she was willing to pay whatever the price was as long as she could watch over his son.
He could enslave her for all she cared.

Escaping her life, Sienna ran away and raised her son on her own. But after six years of hiding, the devil came at her doorstep with one objective: to take his heir.
A woman chained by her flaw, that is who Sienna Roselei is. Used as a pawn in her family's schemes, she falls into the mischievous hands of a man whose eyes glow with wickedness beyond what she can comprehend. She runs away and disappears for the next six years, only to fall into his hands again.
But this time she is no longer alone.
She is with her son.

"What exactly do you want from me, Mr. Mori?"
"I told you, I want a bride. You took my bride, you bring me another one."
She snickered. "You want me to become a matchmaker?"
"No, sweetheart," he stood from his seat and leaned forward. Both his hands were flat on the desk as he crouched and peered down at Allie's piercing eyes.
Evan stared at her green eyes darkly. They were so alive like a lovely summer forest, yet at the same time they were unnervingly cold and fearless. He didn't like her defiance.
"You will take her place. You will be my bride."
[WARNING: THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL BILLIONAIRE LOVE STORY. THIS MAY CONTAIN DARK THEMES!]
Power comes with a cost... and it was something she was willing to trade her soul for.
A few nights before her wedding, Lauren sought a way to break her fourth engagement. Known for her bad reputation as the rebel princess, she was the only lady who had the guts to step foot on the Everston mansion, the house of a notorious warlord, in the middle of the night.
She offered him a wicked alliance that the entire kingdom did not see coming: a marriage.
A vixen pretending to be a damsel in distress and a man whose crimson eyes screaming for bloodshed. Could something blossom in this treacherous dance of lies and deception?

"Are you upset?"
She eyed him sharply. "Should I be honored that I got tricked by you, milord?"
He drank the remaining wine in his glass with one gulp and put it on the wooden table.
He stepped in front of her. His hand was on the rail on her side while his other hand grabbed her glass and finished her wine before putting it down.
The way his Adam's apple moved with his every violent gulp made her feel a tickling heat around her nape.
When he brought his attention back to her, he licked his lips to wipe off the trace of wine.
"How shall I make it up to you then?" he asked with his deep voice, like a seductive devil asking his victim how she would like to be killed. Dangerous yet… enthralling.

Note: This is a dark fantasy-romance genre with a lot of gore, family feuds, steamy scenes, twists and turns, and other explicit content (no rape) that will rile you up and might give you a heart attack so basically this is not for soft-hearted ones, so read at your own risk!
Thank you for the wonderful review!❤️ I'm happy you enjoyed Alec and Lauren's journey :)
