*Evelyn's POV*
Today is the day I escape prison.
Let me rephrase that properly; today is the day run away from my captor—the man who married me out of sheer spite for my father.
My husband is, although I rather choke on my ego than admit it, a very smart man and so far, the only man who figured out that Lexter Hidalgo's weakness didn't lie In his guns,armour or precious reputation.
It took him one interaction with me to discover how much I meant to my father and before I knew it,we were swearing our forevers to each other in front of a pope.
I was invited to a private charity event and asked to sit in a separate room with six other people–who I later learned was his family members evaluating if I was fit to be his wife.
"The Wedding will be in two weeks."the woman opposite me said abruptly. It was the first thing she said all night and for a moment,I was too entranced with the silk superiority her voice carried to really pay attention to what she said.
