Trapped In A Marriage Contract With The Divel Billionaire I Hate
Natalia said with disgust: "Never. I would prefer death over loving the idea of marrying you."
Cedric said in a mysterious and terrifying tone: "Die then."
Cedric said cruelly: "Then you won't be able to die; that is what you will get, Natalia..." Then he lowered his voice to a terrifying hiss and continued: "Pain."
Cedric looking at her sharply: "But we will play the role of the couple."
Natalia answered, her eyes shining with defiance: "Even if it's acting, Cedric, you will not touch me."
Cedric said in a voice as low as a hiss: "I will touch you if the matter requires it, do you understand?"
------------------------
Natalia is thrown into the furnace of a war she did not choose.
With a single decision from her father, the ambitions of the eighteen-year-old girl were shattered, transforming into an eternal shackle.
It is not merely a marriage, but a deed of ownership to ensure the empire remains safe through a strategic alliance, under the protection of the man whose very existence she loathes: Cedric, the son of her father’s most powerful business partner.
A wedding without lights... and a wife in the shadows.
Because she has not reached the legal age for the elite, and because scandal might shake the family walls, Natalia was sentenced to be a "Secret Wife."
A marriage imprisoned behind the palace walls, forbidden from being circulated in the hallways of velvet society.
Natalia finds herself forced to live in the Stuart family mansion, where she is compelled to share oxygen and space in one room with Cedric; the man who sees in this marriage an insult to his pride and an assassination of his freedom.
Behind that closed door, the official masks fall, and the fires of hatred ignite.
But the real hell for Natalia lies not only in Cedric’s cruelty, but in the presence of William; Cedric’s older brother and the person whose heart beat with love for him since her childhood.
Now, Natalia finds herself trapped under one roof with the man she desired as a husband, while she is, in reality, the property of his brother whom she hates.
Cedric... the cruel executioner. Cedric will not settle for silent rejection; instead, he will turn Natalia’s days into an organized "hell."
Every look is a stab, every word is a spark, and every night they spend in that ill-fated room is a new round of psychological torture, where Natalia burns between the fire of her impossible love for William and the fire of her imposed hatred for Cedric.
