Intro

He had never felt this way about anyone before, yet he was determined to keep these feelings buried beneath layers of calculated cruelty, maintaining the distance he so desperately needed.

This arranged marriage was a political alliance between the Autumn and Night Courts, an alliance that had to remain unbroken.
