My name is Morella Rowena Annabelle Byron. It is as pretentious as everything else in my life appears to be. As heir to one-fourth of Caleum, one might expect nothing less. Appearances can be deceiving, though. I am under my father’s complete control and have torn my soul to pieces to perform his dirty work. I have tried to fight against it, but when he gives me an order, I cannot refuse. His latest plot has me engaged to a man I barely know. I am treading on eggshells to make this relationship work while my father, Viktor, is determined to have what he sold me for. A man he sends me to keep quiet blathers on in riddles about the spirit runes, but the runes are nothing more than a myth. Right? The chessboard is set. Viktor is moving pieces two steps ahead of me. I have removed pawns from the board, but I am not the only piece he controls. I am working to uncover his plan and even more desperate to gain my freedom. *Ages 17+ recommended **This book contains scenes of physical abuse
