Their families arranged the marriage to tame two disappointments. Instead, they put fire in the same room. Kang Selene has spent her life learning how to survive being overlooked. Luca Kensington has made a habit of looking untouchable while the world mistakes him for a playboy. When their stepmothers force them into marriage, neither of them expects anything more than cold civility and public smiles. But Luca is all sharp edges, lazy charm, and dangerous patience. And Selene is far too composed for a woman who keeps looking at him like she already knows what he hides. What begins as a polished family arrangement turns into late-night arguments, stolen glances, and a tension so thick it feels like a touch. In a world of power, scandal, and old money, the line between duty and desire starts to blur. And when a marriage built on family pride, public image, and hidden resentment starts turning into something real, the only thing more scandalous than the arrangement is the love that grows inside it.
