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

After our brief talk in the living room, Aryanna retreated to her new room. Her footsteps faded up the staircase as I watched her go. I stayed a moment longer, letting the silence settle around me. This entire arrangement with her—engagement, marriage, whatever one called it—was already stirring up complications. Trusting someone so new in my life went against my every instinct, yet the potential gain kept me committed.


Once the room was empty, I left for the office, sliding into the sleek black car waiting outside. The drive was uneventful, the usual cityscape flashing by the tinted windows. But my mind kept drifting back to Aryanna, calculating the exact risk her presence posed. By the time I reached my office, all I could think of was our talk earlier.
