𝑶𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒖𝒑𝒐𝒏 𝒂 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝒔𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆. 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒒𝒖𝒆𝒓. Power. Money. Status. Whatever I want, I get. And if something stands in my way? I conquer and destroy it. I’m a monster with no redeeming qualities. A hunter who seeks his prey so viciously nothing can stop me. My prey hides in the shadows thinking it might save him from my wrath. It won't. A true hunter knows one rule: Every prey can be lured out of the darkness with the right bait. And I just found mine. His daughter. The monster inside me craves to possess her. A beauty who ends up trapped in a castle by the horrible beast. Seducing and then breaking her will be my greatest conquest. After all, la vida es cruel. Life is cruel. And so am I.

𝑶𝒏𝒄𝒆 𝒖𝒑𝒐𝒏 𝒂 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆 𝒔𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆. 𝑴𝒊𝒏𝒆 𝒕𝒐 𝒎𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒚. Power. Money. Status. I clawed my way to the top. And if someone dares to go against me? I viciously destroy them. I’m a monster who seeks vengeance for the injustice done to him. A hunter, hungry to catch and punish his prey before sending it to rot in hell. My prey thinks he killed me a long time ago when he stole my birthright. He didn't. Every monster knows one rule: To win a war you have to dethrone the king. And for that, I have to have her. An innocent beauty who ends up married to a horrible beast. Wearing the name to the dynasty that holds the keys to my victory. I’m done waiting to claim what rightfully belongs to me. And if an innocent creature ends up being collateral damage in it all? Well, then so be it. She will be mine. Even if I have to declare war to do so. After all, la vie est injuste. Life is unfair. And so am I.

Power. Money. Status. Everything I have, I earned with blood, sweat, and tears—the vicious scar on my cheek can attest to that fact. No one dares to go against me. And if someone tries? I punish and destroy them. ​ I’m a monster born from agony and pain with no redeeming qualities, a hunter who seeks to catch his prey. To torture them in retribution for all the atrocities they have committed. My current prey thinks he tricked me a long time ago by faking his death. He didn’t. ​ There is one absolute law all monsters follow: In order to catch your prey, you need to have the perfect decoy. And what better decoy than the one person my prey craves the most. Her. ​ The beauty who seeks answers to explain her horrific past, and unfortunately for her…I hold all the keys. I should stay away from her. Instead, I marry her and trap her in the beast’s castle with no way of escaping, claiming her as mine. After all… Life is unbearable. And so am I.

Once upon a time she became mine. Mine to corrupt. He’s my brother’s best friend. Older, dangerous, powerful. Forbidden. And he hates me. Oh, did I mention I'm pregnant with his baby?
