Enzo (Legacy of Heathens #3)

Marriage arrangements were nothing new in our world. Mine was sealed before I even took my first breath—an unbreakable pact forged to ensure peace between two powerful families.

My husband was beautiful, and his rough hands and filthy mouth commanded my body. He stole my firsts with seduction and deceit, drawing me into his world until resistance felt like a lie.
