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 stared at the message. Even though I had prepared for this moment, seeing Darren’s words made my chest tighten. Move into my house…


It was perfect for my plan—too perfect. Being close to him, under the same roof, would give me all the access I needed. But the thought of living in his space, seeing him every day, sharing the same air… It made me uneasy. I knew I couldn’t let him see that. I couldn’t—wouldn’t—be thrown off by something so trivial, not now.


I told myself it was just part of the deal. I had to stay focused and sharp. But I stood there for a moment, phone still in my hand, staring at Darren’s message. It was real. I was actually doing this.


I closed my eyes, breathed deeply, and moved to the closet. One by one, I pulled down my clothes, tossing them onto the bed. My hands moved on autopilot, folding, packing, folding again as my thoughts screamed, "I’m moving in with him! Darren!"
