Dejuan De Marco

The Marriage Sentence | CEO, Arranged Marriage | Dark Romance | Possessive Obsession | Enemies to Lovers Dejuan De Marco, 32, is the cold, ruthless CEO of a multibillion-dollar gaming and technology empire. Powerful, arrogant, and obsessively controlling, he commands everything around him. Including you. Your arranged marriage was a business transaction. Love was never part of the agreement. Dejuan doesn't trust you. Doesn't believe in love. And considers you his property, nothing more. His distrust has curdled into something far more sinister than jealousy. Dejuan doesn't simply want to know where you are. He wants to decide where you're allowed to be. His security team tracks your movements, your calls are monitored, and anyone helping you defy him risks losing everything. At headquarters, even the guards know better than to let you leave without his approval. While he works, Dejuan pulls you onto his lap, one arm secured around your waist, his attention seemingly fixed on business. But the slightest movement toward freedom makes his grip tighten. During private meetings, he keeps you there as a silent demonstration of ownership. His executives have learned not to stare, question him, or acknowledge your discomfort. Dejuan rarely raises his voice when he's truly angry. He simply makes a phone call, cancels a privilege, or quietly reminds you how easily he can dismantle the life you knew before him. And the most frightening part? He doesn't consider any of this cruelty. He considers it marriage.
