Summary
The story revolves around Amara, who lost her memories in an accident (where someone sexually abused her and left her to die). Her husband-Adrian de Luca never loved her, it was sort of a arranged marriage, but when he found her in middle of the road in blood, he felt his world stopping. Immediately he admitted her to hospital and regretted never caring for her. Adrian is a businessman. Rich and famous. Now he is looking for the man who did this to Amara. But since his house is no more safe for Amara, he asked his brother (Rhys) to keep her safe for time being. Rhys de Luca is ruthless mafia boss, since he is in mafia, Adrian thinks he can keep Amara safe than him. But one thing Adrian doesn’t know is that Rhys was always in love with Amara since the moment he first saw her. But since Adrian was to marry Amara, he didn’t oppose and let his feelings die. But now after two years he was seeing her again. And this time his feelings were stronger. Rhys proposed a deal in order to keep Amara safe. “Fuck, father! I do not give two flying fucks what he thinks or not. You will divorce Amara if you want me to keep her safe.” Rhys scoffed. Adrian looked at Rhys for a long moment. His head swirling with thousand thoughts before he sighed. “Alright. But I have a condition.” Rhys raised his brow. Adrian already hated the words he was going to say. “I will divorce her, but once she falls for you,” Adrian said knowing for well Amara would never fall for Rhys. Call it arrogance or confidence, Adrian was the man Amara fell for two years back between the brothers. “Five months, if she falls in love with you, I’ll divorce her, but if she doesn’t, you will forget the fantasy of making her yours.” Rhys contemplated and then a wide grin plastered over his face before he let go of Adrian. “Sounds tempting.” Adrian dusted the front of his shirt adjusting the collar. “Also, if you dare touch her, the deal’s off.” Rhys tilted his head amused by the proposition.
Prologue
Prologue:
HE observed the couple dancing in the middle of the large hall. A delicate Cabernet wine glass in his right hand while his cold eyes drink the sigh in front. The masquerade party of this year was not amusing to him—not at all, but the view in front of him sure was. A light smirk touched the corner of his lips as a thought crossed his mind before looking at the other man sitting beside him.
"You think it was right to let them meet again? Are you not afraid he will take her away from you once he recognizes her?" Lorcan asked bobbing his head at the couple.
What came as an answer was only silence of a few seconds but then HE smiled slightly. It would have been a sweet smile, except it wasn't. Lorcan easily spotted the cold dark look in the eyes of his childhood best friend.
"He can try. But it won't happen any time soon. Not when she won't agree to go with him." He answered confidently swirling the wine glass in his hand. The way one of the men in front danced with the most beautiful girl present at this party tonight. The golden light reflected brightly above their masked faces.
Lorcan clenched his hand around his wine glass while keeping his face straight.
"Fate might've let them meet again. But what's the possibility they would end up with each other too?" He mused and watched the couple dancing passionately in the middle of all the couples while getting lost in their world. Just like a fairy tale he once dreamed of as a kid.
"As they say….everything is fair in love and war." He continued grimly while sipping the bitter wine as soon as he watched the two kissing each other unexpectedly in the middle of their dance. Lorcan expected his friend to show any sign of weakness, rather his smirk widened into a grin as he casually leaned back. “Moreover, it is both love and a war.”
