When Aryanna Kyle returns to Snow Town, her purpose is clear but cloaked in shadows: infiltrate Darren Miller’s world and exact her revenge. She once had a happy family and parents who loved her more than anyone else. But it was ruined by a man named Darren, and Aryanna swore to make him pay price for it.
However, gaining access to the life of this aloof CEO proves to be as daunting as it is dangerous. For Darren Miller is a man renowned for his ruthless apathy and lethal disregard for anyone beneath him.
But Darren’s world is rife with elusive enemies, which makes Aryanna assume the role of an ally, helping him untangle conspiracies involving his own board of directors and a vicious competitor. The price she needs to pay is signing a contract and becoming his fiancee, like sacrifcing herself to the demon.
Her strategy works. As Darren’s vigilance remains focused outward, he remains unaware of the true threat: the very person by his side, poised like a blade to his back, that becomes the very instrument of his undoing.

Marry to the One Who Betrayed Me

I hadn’t really looked at Darren until now, not like this.


Five years had passed, and he wasn’t the man I remembered.


Back then, he was different—just a personal aide. He was gentle and easy-going and always had a half-smile playing on his lips, the kind that made you believe he was harmless. That’s how he fooled me—fooled everyone.


He stood like a man who knew exactly what he was worth. There was a pressure coming off him, heavy and undeniable. It was not the kind you saw outright, but the kind you felt deep in your gut—the kind that came from power.


Darren Miller, CEO, was the man who pulled all the strings now. He was the man who built an empire on top of the wreckage he left behind.


I offered a polite smile, but inside, everything stirred.
