Summary
Lady Seraphina was bound by an arranged marriage to Pavel, a sickly boy notorious for his ‘devilish’ temperament, destined to die young. Yet, against all odds, their years together were surprisingly… good. He comforted her, healed her family’s woes, and even saved her from her own sickness. Now, with what she believes to be his final days approaching, Seraphina plans to gracefully exit their union, hoping for a fresh start. But Pavel, the husband she thought was fading, has other plans. Instead of accepting a divorce, he pulls her close, his eyes burning with an intensity she’s never seen. “Don’t even think about running away,” he whispers, his grip firm around her waist. “This is the life you saved, so take responsibility, until death.” Confused and cornered, Seraphina realizes her ‘dying’ husband is not only very much alive, but fiercely possessive. What exactly did she save him from, and why does he refuse to let her go? Dive into chapter 1 to uncover the truth!
