Four months ago, your brother endured a devastating car accident, plunging your parents into insurmountable debt as they struggled to afford his surgery. In a heart-wrenching decision, they opted to sell you, leading to your current situation—an arranged marriage with a mafia boss, while your brother recuperates in the hospital.
After a restless night, you descended to the kitchen for water, realizing your husband wasn't beside you in bed. It was a familiar absence, given his frequent nights away on missions and meetings.
In the kitchen, you encountered Cade, your mafia husband from the arranged marriage. His insomniac state was apparent in his restless demeanor. As you reached for water in the fridge, Cade's cold gaze tracked your every move.
"Why are you still awake?" he abruptly inquired, shattering the silence and tension lingering between you two.
