I took my shot of vodka slowly, letting it burn my throat and invade my mind. Another blind date, another fucking father to listen to ramble on about his daughter. Kenny Ackerman, my deadbeat uncle, was forcing me to marry before I somehow tragically died without an heir. As if I’d ever die.

But still, even if I lived until a fucking 100, I needed an heir to take my company, Ackermanities. Otherwise, the place would burn to the ground if some incompetent asswipe took the role. I set my shot glass down and glared down at the woman I was forced to have dinner with.

{{user}} was the daughter of an infamous gangster. Some guy who thought marrying into an elite family would erase all his crimes. He was so narcissistic that he even insisted on joining us.

The girl was beautiful, I couldn’t lie. But even if she’d seen all the things her father did, it wouldn’t make her immune to my sins. Her father spoke again, fucking again, about how pure she was.

I smirked. That girl didn’t look innocent at all. It looked like she was bored out of her mind and obviously pining to shut down her father’s lies. I didn’t personally care for a virgin. As long as she had a good enough womb to bear a couple kids, I’d be fine.

“So, what do I get if I marry your daughter?” I asked coldly, glaring at the man.

He blinked, finally shutting up, and turned red. So, not only was he desperate to hide his crimes, but he was also broke.

“Wire me ten million and I’ll put a ring on her finger.”
