CHAPTER 55 The Cage I Didn't See Coming

  James' POV

  At first, my life with Isabella was exactly as I had envisioned. We were the perfect power couple, envied, respected, untouchable. She commanded attention in every room, while I stood at her side, the Alpha she had chosen. I felt like I had won.

  We were perfect in every way; aesthetically, hierarchically, and physically she felt heavenly and I couldn't get enough of her.

  But I had been a fool.

  I thought Isabella and I were equals, partners in ambition, but I soon realized that her dominance didn't end at the political stage. It extended into our private life, our marriage, my every move. She somehow got me to do whatever she wanted one way or another; she'd either claim it was an advice or she'd seduce me into considering what she had said.

  And now, I was the one being controlled.
