Prologue — Zoya Velisar Married to Count Jaffery Velisar, she believed that even if love did not grow between them, at least respect would. But respect was the first thing Jaffery threw away. One night, he made a demand that shattered Zoya’s world. “Zoya, I need an heir. You only have to spend one night with my friend.” She thought he was drunk. Delusional. No husband could ask his wife that. But Jaffery was terrified of the world discovering the truth—that he was incapable of fathering a child. And to protect his pride, he was willing to sacrifice her dignity. Broken, and pressured until she could no longer fight, Zoya gave in. She spent one night with a stranger… and a few weeks later, she realized she was pregnant. She thought Jaffery would finally smile. But the moment she shared the news, his face twisted with rage. “This child isn’t mine. How dare you lie to me? How dare you get pregnant by another man?” The same man who forced her into the act now accused her of betrayal. The same husband who begged her for a child now called her unfaithful. In a single night, Zoya lost everything—her home, her wealth, her status. Alone and pregnant, she wandered the streets for days, broken and starving, clutching her stomach and whispering apologies to the tiny life inside her. She wanted to give up. She wanted to end her life. But the fragile heartbeat she carried kept her alive. A year passed. She gave birth to a beautiful son—a child with the eyes of a man she didn’t know.
