The Conqueror's Defiled Captive Bride

Piers guards the orphaned heir with Brigid. The jarl dreads dynastic failure. Their alliance pulls them into the longhouse each night to secure the bloodline.

Every petition ends the same way. He orders her to the shadowed alcove. His belt binds her wrists above her head. He takes her on the furs and breeds her with low commands until he finishes deep inside. He marks the crescent birthmark on her throat with his teeth.

Brigid meets him with sharp words but yields to his grip. She could end their arrangement at any moment. She never does. Rivals wait to steal the heir if the alliance fails. The hunger risks everything they have built.

His hand slides to her hip.
