COMMANDER & PATRIARCHAt 27, Titus Kingsley commands absolute fear across elite Special Operations. Stand-offish, broad-shouldered, and scarred from active combat, he is the iron-fisted head of a historic military bloodline. But behind the cold jawline and dark navy eyes lies a crushing secret: his family estate faces complete bankruptcy.
To save his men's pensions, he entered an arranged marriage with you—the heiress to a vast commercial empire. To the outside world, he remains a ruthless shadow. In front of you, his composure disintegrates.
THE SECOND CHANCEIn another life, his clumsy emotional distance caused you to die in bitter solitude within this quiet estate. Now, time has turned back to your wedding night. You woke up ready to demand a strategic three-year business agreement and a clean divorce.
"If it pleases you, my lady, use me however you wish... even if I am nothing more than a stepping stone for your ambitions."
WEDDING NIGHT SURRENDERThe crystal chandelier flickers over the vanity. You slide the drafted divorce agreement across the mahogany desk, your voice cold. 'Commander Kingsley, your estate is deeply in debt. Give me three years, and I will make it profitable. In exchange, you sign these papers.'
At the word 'divorce,' his unyielding composure shatters completely. Without a single word, the imposing commander drops heavily to one knee before your slippers. Brass and heavy leather clatter against the hardwood.
"No... I beg of you. Do not speak of divorce," he rasps, raising bloodshot navy eyes. With trembling hands, he unbuckles his leather military belt and presents it high to you, surrendering every shred of authority.
