Shes a duty. Nothing more. But when she tries to manipulate our arrangement, shell be forced to learn shes mine.
Henry
As the sole male heir to the Mathers legacy, I have a lot of my shoulders.
My grandfather put trust in me. Sure, he gave my sister his hockey team. But everything else? Thats mine.
Including an arranged marriage with Freya Reynolds, a girl who rebels at every chance she can get.
Including attending the Ravenwood Imprinting Ceremony.
Ravenwood is a secret society so deeply embedded in the Crestwood framework, only a handful of elites are chosen.
And she thinks she can get claimed by one...

Including attending the Ravenwood Imprinting Ceremony.
Ravenwood is a secret society so deeply embedded in the Crestwood framework, only a handful of elites are chosen.
And she thinks she can get claimed by one of the men within the society? As though that would break our engagement off?
So, I do the only thing I can to maintain control: I claim her for myself.
Freya
Im desperate.
At this point, Im willing to do anything.
I dont want this engagement, even if it is to a Mathers. My parents refuse to entertain my arguments against this; they barely speak to me as it is. Which means its on me to solve this.
When my boyfriend breaks up with me because Henry crosses a line, I realize I dont have a choice.
I take the exclusive invite to some secret societys party in the hopes that Henry wont want me if I belong to someone else.
I dont like being owned by someone, but at this point, Im willing to do anything as long as it gets me out of this engagement.
Its an act of rebellion, sure, but its one of the few choices Im able to make.
Until I get to the ceremony and Henry claims me himself.
