He Rules Galaxies But Clings to Her

Karlie Scott has been married to Anton Bright, the most powerful man on Alpha Planet, but she is desperate to escape an arranged union. She fights to annul the marriage, stubborn and determined. Publicly Anton is the Empire’s ruthless commander, feared and implacable. Privately he has shed every sharp edge for her, quietly soft and oddly dependent. Alone, his voice breaks: 'Sweetie, are you abandoning me again?' Each gentle word, each careful gesture tightens the web around her will. He disarms her legally and emotionally with a patient tenderness that contrasts his public brutality. Karlie must decide whether to break free or surrender to a man who rules galaxies yet cannot let her go.
