Hunter

A bond that was severed. A love that persisted. A marriage that ended before it even began. For twenty years, I’ve watched Isabella from the shadows—loving her from a distance, protecting her without her knowing. She was always mine, even when she didn’t want to be. Our wedding was meant to bring peace, but it only brought destruction. What should have been the start of our forever ended in a single night, leaving nothing but resentment in its wake. She walked away, and I let her, knowing I had no right to ask her to stay. But now, my empire is on the verge of collapse, my enemies closing in. To save my legacy, I need her by my side—not just in name, but in truth. This time, I won’t fail her. This time, I’ll fight for her. But after twenty years of pain and betrayal, is there anything left for us to salvage?
