Claire Reed thought she married the man of her dreams, Evander Kensington, but she had no idea that their marriage was built on a lie; a family vow that trapped him by her side. 

His heart, however, belonged to another woman, his white lotus.

No matter how hard Claire tried to win Evander’s love, he only grew colder, and his family treated her like she didn’t exist. 

When she lost their unborn child, Claire’s world shattered. She wanted to see Evander, but he didn't bother to check on her. Instead, he went to meet that white lotus. 

Unable to bear the betrayal, she decided to free Evander from this marriage, leaving behind a letter and divorce papers, claiming she now had someone else she loved!

"You’re mine, and I’ll never let you go!” he declared, his voice dark with possessiveness.

“But I don’t want you anymore! You can have Susan—I’m now in love with someone else!” Claire shot back, her words sharp and final. 

"You can't be with anyone. Do you even know how sleepless nights I've without you?" Evander's hold on her tightened. "I'll see how you become some else when I'll claim you," he pronounced before crashing his lips on her.

If Claire and Colten's situations weren't enough to shake him up, I had another card to play: Gloria and his deceased child. After all, Gloria's schemes were the foundation of who Evander was today— the cold, heartless monster incapable of love.

"You think Claire will forgive you?" I sneered, my voice dripping with venom. "Do you think she will overlook the fact that Gloria plotted the death of your child because of you?"
