Synopsis

“So what do you plan on doing?” he asked, simply, “I want revenge. I want them to pay for everything they’ve done,” I replied in a determined voice. “Revenge, huh. What if I help you?” he asked, feeling so proud of himself.  My eyes snapped to his. “Help me… how?” “Well, you told me you’re broke, right? What would you say if I gave you all the money you need for your revenge plan in exchange for something?” My breath hitched as I considered his offer. He’s clearly rich, and that would mean enough money to start up my plan. “In exchange for what? I have no money. I don’t have anything to give unless you want me to pay you back in the future, but I don’t think—” “Marry me.” ….. Astrid’s world was turned upside down when she caught was betrayed by the people she loved the most. Feeling utterly lost and defeated, Astrid's life took an unexpected turn when the enigmatic Damien Starkov proposed marriage to her, ostensibly to aid her quest for revenge.  However, as Astrid delved deeper into Damien’s motives, she began to suspect that his emotions were far more complex than they initially seemed. She discovered that his past was shrouded in darkness, a mystery he kept hidden from everyone, including herself.  This revelation raised doubts in Astrid’s mind about the morality of their revenge plot, and she couldn’t help but wonder if she had misjudged Damien’s true nature, which seemed to be characterized by an aura of foreboding d-a-r-k-n-e-s-s!

Chapter twoAstrid's POV Instead of the pain and impact I expected, a strong hand grabbed me, pushing me violently to the other side. We both fell, tumbling to the sidewalk and rolling off. The person who had saved me wrapped me in his warm embrace, as if to shield me from scraping my skin against the concrete.My breathing halted as I took in his face mere inches from mine, his gaze locking onto mine. He held it for what seemed like forever.Woah. This guy is an adonis. He's so attract- "Are you crazy, you foolish girl? Why would you stand in the middle of the road?" The driver of the car that almost killed me exclaimed as onlookers rushed toward the scene. "Do you want me to be the one to kill you? Let me tell you that you’ve failed, okay? Although I wish you’d have died to have one less fool to worry about." My heart beat spiked. I was still not over the shock of almost dying, yet this man was being so rude. The stranger, whose arm was still around my waist, stood up, grabbed m

Astrid's POV"What?" I demanded, my brows knitted together."I think you heard me the first time. Marry me, and I'll help you get your revenge. Don't worry, it won't be forever. Just a couple of months."What the hell? What does he think marriage is about? It isn’t just a playdate in the park. It’s sacred! Whether forever or not!"I'm sorry. I won't marry you. If that's the only way to get revenge, then... I'm not interested.""Your choice. But..." He handed me his card, a smirk playing on his lips. "Call me when you change your mind, which I know will be soon." After saying this, he stared at me for a few seconds, then turned on his heel and walked toward his car, his guards following closely behind.My mind was racing. Where would I go after this? All my income was under Dad's control. I couldn't go back to the family mansion, so I was homeless. But if I marry him... I could have a place to stay while planning my revenge.I shook my head, trying to drive the thought away. But the th

Chapter 4Astrid's POV As soon as I stepped out of my room the next afternoon after I slept in, my eyes widened. A group of stylists and make-up artists gathered around me, carrying numerous items I'd never seen. “Good afternoon, ma’am! We’re here to prepare you for the party tonight,” one of them greeted in a professional manner. What party? I wanted to ask but chose to keep my mouth shut. A few hours later, they stopped doing their work and left. My jaw dropped as I glanced at myself in the mirror, seeing a more stunning version of myself staring at me. I descended the staircase, wondering to myself what compliment Damien would give me. As I reached the bottom, I saw Damien standing there, dressed to perfection in a black three-piece suit, his hair gelled back. Wow, how can a man look so yummy? He glanced up at me, and instead of the compliment I'd hoped for, he just turned and walked to the car without a word. "I'm opening a new hotel today, so it's the perfect opportunity

Chapter 5
Astrid's POVThe whole ride home, I kept peering at Damien under my lashes. He looked as impassive as ever, his eyes focused on his phone, the light reflecting from it giving me a beautiful glimpse of his face. He hadn't spoken to me after what happened at the party, and I was getting frustrated because I now felt like it was my fault.As we walked into his mansion, I decided that I had had enough. I was going to apologize, although I know I did no wrong. If I were given the opportunity to save someone's life again, I would.As Damien walked towards his room, my hand shot out to grab his wrist. He turned to me, arching a brow.I inhaled, the words feeling heavy in my mouth. "I—I am so sorry about what happened at the party. If I had known, I would have chosen a different approach. Please forgive me."His jaw clenched, as if he was fighting to keep his composure, and he turned away from me."Just go to sleep, Astrid. It’s late."With that, he walked away, leaving me feeling even more f

Chapter 6
Astrid's POVA million questions ran through my mind, a lump tightening in my throat as I stared at the woman standing before me in the kitchen. What had she just said? She was Damien's wife? But I was Damien's wife! Was he polygamous? But that wasn’t part of the agreement."Are you daft?" she shouted, placing her expensive Louis Vuitton bag on the kitchen counter and walking towards me. "Why am I even asking? You're a new maid, right?"I just stared at her, not responding. I didn't come here to deal with rude, stuck-up bitches."As if the incompetent ones here weren't enough already, he just had to add a deaf and mute one?"That hit a nerve, and I couldn't bite back the retort that escaped my lips. "I wish I were deaf so I wouldn't have to hear your voice."Her face grew red, and she stormed towards me as though ready to strike. "Oh my gosh, what is that disgusting smell?"The corn was beginning to boil, so the aroma was quickly filling the room. While it felt enticing to my nostrils

Astrid's POVI spun around fast, my muscles tensed. "What the hell did you say?"Damien stares at me, unbothered. "Take off your shirt," he repeats slowly, as if I hadn't heard him before."I heard you the first time, you shameless pig!" I exclaimed, my face turning red. "I thought you said no affection at home. Now you want me to please you while—""Do not test me, woman. I am not in the mood for any of your stupidity," he spoke through gritted teeth.I opened my mouth, but he didn’t let me speak. "Here," he said, pulling my hand, opening my palm, and placing a bottle in it. "Since you are too proud, take care of your own injury. And don’t come crying to me afterward."I glanced down at the object he placed in my palm. It was an ointment for burns. I bit my lip, awkwardness quickly taking over the atmosphere in the room. He clearly wanted to help me, and I just had to be rude. Great, Astrid! Just great."Uh, I, uh," I stuttered, heat rising to my cheeks. "I’m sorry, I didn’t know you

Damien's POVI walked away from Astrid's presence, storming up the stairs and into my room. The door slammed behind me, my hands clenching into tight fists at my sides.Why is this girl so infuriating, and it's not even been a week? How do I plan on surviving this? I don't know why I didn't I just send her to the hospital. Did I have to apply it myself?But you can't deny that you enjoy the show she unconsciously put on, my subconscious mocked me, making me groan as my trousers tightened around my groin.I couldn't stop staring at her pointed nipples through her bra as she focused on my hands applying the ointment. It took a lot in me to not just make her mine on that kitchen counter.Dang it! How could she turn me on with just a moan. An unintentional moan had me hardening like a rock. It's a good thing I left her presence in time before she noticed my young man acting like a sex-deprived dog.I walked to my bed, positioned in the middle of the room—a king-sized bed big enough to fit

Astrid's POV I paced back and forth in my room, rubbing my eyes as my mind buzzed with thoughts, all geared toward how foolishly I had acted. Why am I so stupid? I shouldn't have run off like a criminal. Now it looks like I was eavesdropping."Astrid," my subconscious mocked, you were indeed eavesdropping."Shut up," I exclaimed, then facepalmed.Great, I was now talking to myself. I think I need to get checked up.The rumbling of my stomach occurred almost simultaneously with the roar of thunder from outside. I walked to the balcony, facing the vast forest in Damien’s backyard. His property seemed to stretch on for miles, even having a small lake within it.I wondered why someone would have this much property when they couldn't even live in all of it. What does he do in this forest? Is he a wolf?I laughed at my own joke.It was almost evening, so the skies were getting dark. Or maybe it was just the impending rainfall threatening its way through the clouds. Either way, I needed to
