My name is Lily Beaumont, and I am completely blind. I once gave my eyes to a boy I loved in secret — a quiet sacrifice no one ever knew about. Twelve years later, a collision on a busy London street brought Ruben Kane into my life. Arrogant. Cruel. Devastatingly powerful. He decided one public humiliation deserved a lifetime of punishment. So he forced me into marriage. He kissed me at the altar like he owned every breath in my body, then abandoned me the moment he discovered I couldn’t see. But the joke was on him — because the man I gave my sight to all those years ago is still out there, carrying a part of me he’ll never understand. Now Ruben is back, crawling through my darkness with touches that burn and words that cut. He says he wants to possess me completely. He promises to break me slowly, night after night, until I crave the very monster who destroyed my wedding day. I should hate him. I should run. But in the dark, it’s getting harder to remember why I ever wanted to fight the man who makes me feel seen.
