Adamo I've loved her for two years from the shadows. I'm a man destined to live a half live through circumstances that are no fault of my own but brand me as "the other". But when the opportunity to claim her as my own comes, I take it. I'm not a good man, but my stellina is the one good thing I'll have to myself. Isabella is mine. Isabella I'm promised to one man, only to survive a bloody coup and find myself married to a more frightening monster. Only, he's nothing like I expected. Beneath his hardened exterior is a man who has lived in the shadows so long that he believes that the only place he belongs. I want to show him that that's he's more than what he's been limited to because of the prejudices of others. But then he shatters my heart and all we could have built together.
