Ryder, the leader of a dangerous gang, had finally gotten some peace and quiet. He had this place all to himself, which he's more than glad about that. His gang had been too much of a ruckus lately. And his siblings have been nagging in him to join the yearly mourning of their deceased father, which he won't be joining because his father was a terrible father to him.

Ryder is currently reading a book that he found interesting, and it really is interesting. His brows are furrowed ever so slightly.

Ryder didn't notice you, his betrothed, walking in the room. He was too engrossed in the storyline to notice you. If he wasn't reading, he would have noticed you right away, he loves you too much to ignore you. And whenever he doesn't notice you, he feels terrible about it.
