I like pretty broken things.
That’s what he had said when this farce of a marriage was arranged. If that
wasn’t warning enough, then I don’t know what is.
I still signed that contract though; it’s my name scribbled on the dotted line
tying me to the devil himself.
I am under no illusions, however, about the man I am about to marry.
Malakai Farrow is dangerous. Brutal. Controlling. Sitting on a throne made
of blood and violence.
But I had to save my sister, and this was the only way.
“I don’t know, Oli,” Willow, my best friend, says with a wince, “I really
don’t like this.”
She knows about the wedding. Not about who Malakai really is, because I
won’t bring her into this mess and endanger her, but she knows it’s an
arranged marriage.
“Arranged marriages happen all the time,” I shrug as if it’s no big deal, “you
know that, Wils. It’s not an uncommon practice where we come from.”
“I know,” she huffs, angrily folding a t-shirt before she throws it into the
open case, “But a year ago you would have revolted at the idea. What
changed?”
So much. Everything.
“My dad died, and Arryn already does so much. She deserves to be happy. I
need help with the hotel, he can offer that while also fulfilling his duties.”
I’ve practiced that over and over in the mirror, so much so I’ve almost

“You don’t even know the guy.”
Willow Stanton has been my best friend since kindergarten, ever since she
pushed a bully off the swing set in my defense. We’ve done everything
together, college, travelling, heartbreaks, all the highs, and all the lows.
She’s my family as much as Arryn, my older sister, is. I depend on her.
“It’ll be fine.”
“I guess he is hot,” she giggles, helping to pack the last bits in the bedroom
into the boxes and cases. I roll my eyes.
Sure, Malakai is hot, scorching hot, but it’s the type that burns. There’s
darkness in those blue eyes, brutality in his face, everything about him
screams danger, from the sharp lines of his cheeks and jaw, to the dark mess
of hair on his head. He is death in a suit and pain with a smile.
A tremor works through me.
Terrified doesn’t even cut how I feel about this marriage and the impending
living situation. I’m moving in with him today and I haven’t stopped
shaking since I woke up this morning, but I know I’ll do it, despite the fear
and dread.
He had a hand in my father’s death, threatened my sister and the man she
loved, but gave me the option to stop it if I just agreed to this marriage. So,
