Dark Marriage Bargain

Briar_D_Ashford
Elara Vale was never meant to be a bride—especially not like this. When her father sells her into marriage to secure his own safety, Elara is forced into the arms of Adrian Virelli, a man she remembers all too well. Cold, powerful, and dangerously unreadable, Adrian isn’t just her husband—he’s a man surrounded by secrets, enemies, and a darkness that seems to follow him like a shadow. What begins as a transaction quickly becomes something far more complicated. Trapped inside a world she doesn’t understand, Elara realizes her marriage isn’t just about power—it’s about survival. There are people watching her, waiting for her to slip, and the truth behind why she was chosen begins to unravel into something far more sinister than she ever imagined. And Adrian? He’s not the villain she thought he was. But he’s not her savior either. As tension builds between them—sharp words, lingering touches, and a connection neither of them can deny—Elara finds herself drawn to the very man she should fear. Because beneath Adrian’s control lies something dangerous: a need to protect her… even if it means destroying everything—and everyone—in his path. In a world where loyalty is bought and love is a weakness, Elara must decide: Is she just part of the bargain… Or the one thing worth breaking it for?

Fang Yi had just completed the "Survive Five Years in the Ninja World and Earn a Billion" challenge.

So, a reincarnation game suddenly appeared in the Ninja World.

And not just the Ninja World—there was the World Government, Pirates, the Soul Society, the Demon Slayer Corps... Neji Hyuga: Redeemed the seal-removal technique for the Caged Bird. From now on, I am an eagle breaking free from the chains of fate. Tsunade: Can someone lend me 500 reward points? I swear I’ll roll a god-tier skill this time.
