Thug Matrimony Ebook

Saroya Marcus had no idea she was being watched.

Not when she walked into that club glowing in gold, celebrating her last night of freedom. Not when her best friend dragged her into the part of the city everyone said to stay away from and definitely not when her eyes met his—that still, silent man in the shadows who looked at her like he was starving… and she was the last thing on Earth worth biting. She didn’t know his name. Didn’t know what he was.

All she knew was that something about him made her forget how to breathe.

Rahkim Sincere Brooks doesn’t believe in love. He believes in blood. In fate. In claiming what’s his—no matter who it belongs to. And when Saroya smiled at him like he was just another man, Rahkim made a decision. She’d walk down the aisle, but not to the man she thought.

The morning of her wedding, with the city waking and the church bells waiting, Rahkim comes for her. No warning. No mercy. No conscience. He doesn’t steal the bride. He unearths the woman buried under the performance and gives her a new name—his.

Now Saroya is trapped in a world she never asked for, wrapped in silk and blood, bound to a vampire whose obsession is lethal, and love language is control. He feeds her fear and kisses her surrender. He’s ruined her future—but offered her something twisted in return.

Power.

Protection.

And a kind of possession that might feel like love.

Because Saroya wasn’t meant for safe vows or fragile men. She was made for monsters.
