She was silently raised to be sold - a bargaining chip for her family's next deal. A life where her future was decided long before she had a say in it.
She never knew the road they'd already chosen for her. She only knew, deep down, that it would lead to somewhere hellish.
Then one night by a forest, a stranger steals a kiss she never asked for, and everything shifts.
She calls him disgusting. He calls her princess like it's a warning.
Neither of them knows yet how tangled their fates already are, or how far they'll have to go to survive each other, their families, and a system built to swallow them both whole.
Some hatred isn't the opposite of love. Sometimes, it's just the beginning.
