On the wedding day, the groom ran away. The one who walked up the altar to marry me in his stead turned out to be his mafia father.
Burdened with 30 million in debts her father owed, and holding the only lifeline for her mother, Elowen did not even have the freedom to take off her veil. Until Vaughn, who controls the entire city's underground order, stepped into the church, slipped a wedding ring on her finger, and announced to the public: "From today onwards, she is my wife."
In one wedding, she went from a jilted bride to the stepmother of her former fiancé.
Everyone was waiting to laugh at her, only to find that the man who struck terror into everyone's hearts would not allow anyone to touch her again. Yet his protection came with domineering control; every time he drew near, she could not tell whether she was afraid or falling for him.
When the groom who had jilted her reappeared, he only realized — the woman he had abandoned was now sitting by his father's side.
