Claimed for the sultan’s pleasure!
Kidnapped decades ago, Azim al Bahjat stuns the Kingdom of Alazar with his sudden return. To secure his position, the ruthless royal must claim the woman who was always intended to be his—even if sheltered yet beguiling Johara Behwar resists...
No matter how secretly thrilling she finds the flashes of heat beneath Azim’s icy exterior, Johara’s every instinct is to run. But Azim will not be denied, and as he shows his virgin bride how intoxicating their wedding night could be, Johara soon finds herself enticed to surrender to the sultan!
‘His Highness, Azim al Bahjat,’ the attendant intoned, and with fear coating her insides with ice Johara stepped into the room.
The man she was meant to marry stood in the centre of the room, his body erect and still, his face grave and unsmiling. Johara could see how black and opaque his eyes were—like a starless night in the desert. His dark hair was cut so close she could see the powerful bones of his skull, and a scar snaked from the corner of his left eye to the curve of his mouth, clearly long since healed over, although the wounded flesh still looked red and livid.
The whole effect was beyond intimidating, and she had to fight not to take an instinctive step back towards the doors, towards safety, away from this man whose face even in repose looked frightening.
If she looked at his features reasonably, Johara told herself, fighting off panic, she could see that he was an attractive man—his features even, his nose a straight slash, his mouth a mobile, sensual curve.
Then Azim inclined his head in what Johara supposed was a greeting. His voice, when he spoke was clipped, cold.
‘We will marry in one week’s time.’
Two heirs to a desert kingdom need brides to secure their legacies!
Brothers Malik and Azim al Bahjat are the two princes of Alazar, wielding enormous power with iron control.
They have no interest in love—but duty demands they take convenient wives, and these ruthless royals always get what they want!
