Degradation (The Brethren Lords, #3)

I never lived a day until he came along and found me…

Forced to compete for our Chapter Lord’s hand in marriage, I silently pray through each and every degrading ritual that I will not be chosen. But when my nightmare becomes a reality, my life turns into nothing short of hell, and I spend my days with silent submission in public and brutal assault in private.

My dear Lord husband chose me because he needs an heir. He doesn’t care for my needs, he doesn’t even see me as a person.

I’m a thing to own, a vessel to use.

But amongst the horror, amongst the abuse, there’s one shining light; Devin. One of my Chapter Guards. I’m not meant to look at him, let alone know his name.

And as the months drag on my apparent lack of fertility pushes my husband to more reckless measures. Measures that throw us all into a web of lies, deceit, and danger that can only end in one outcome.

And when it all comes to a head, I’m left with a choice; save myself or save the man I love?

Ultimately, there are no winners here. After all, the Brethren never forgive and the Brethren never forget...
