"Take off your clothes, I want to see the body I'd be living with for the rest of my life," he commands, moving to the other side of the room where the red armchair was.

She hesitated, and that displeased him. He growled, clearly infuriated. “Do you need some kind of motivation? Because you will not get it. Take off your fucking clothes!” he thunders, making her jump and her legs shake.

With shaky hands and a trembling body, she grabbed the hand of the silk gown again and dragged it down. Her eyes stayed glued to the floor, not having the audacity to look up at the alpha king across the room from her.

“You’re not done yet!” 
Mia Asika had wanted only one thing for the longest time, enlightenment and the freedom to travel the world in search of it. Mia's dreams however ended the day Ariel, her beautiful and fair older sister who was betrothed to the alpha king, died the night before her marriage and she became the last resort. Hated at sight, the alpha king moved to make her union to him that of misery. 

Can Mia's will for survival withstand the alpha king's cold and unloving nature?

　　“You’re upset,” Mia spoke up as Xavier dragged them further away from Robb who was now back to the guest he had been speaking to before they interrupted. 


　　“You can’t read me, lady, don’t try.” he sneered. 


　　“I’m not reading your thoughts, it’s all over your eyes and I’m certain everyone here can see it too,” she replied and yanked her hand out of his because she no longer wanted to move. “I’m sorry I took you to him.”


　　“Well, you should be. It was a bad idea.” he snapped, not as mad at her as he wanted to be. 


　　“I never wanted that to happen, and I’m sorry.” 


　　He struggled to believe that. He hadn’t been the best husband to her and so him being humiliated should give her a little joy. 


　　“Don’t be. I deserve that for some things I did to you. So you shouldn’t be sorry.”


　　“I know what you have done, yet it gives me no joy to watch you be put down by your father.”
