Summary
No longer able to endure Valentino's abuse, Angel seeks out the gambling overlord, Husk, and begs him to make a bet for his soul. Husk is hesitant to help, worried about the political fallout and public perception.
When Husk witnesses Valentino's cruelty firsthand, he realizes he can't just abandon Angel to his fate. He goes through with Angel's request, but a regular soul contract won’t do. Instead, he binds Angel's soul to him in demonic matrimony, convincing himself that a fake relationship will keep his reputation intact and be good for publicity.
Will their marriage remain a sham, or will their mutual attraction lead to something more? Can they help each other heal the wounds they've both borne for so long? And how will they face the enemies who are determined to separate them forever?
