The Master and the Lark

He is a hired killer, dreaming of leaving the bloody trade and dedicating himself to working in a workshop. She is a songbird with a sunny smile and a dark past that no one suspects. When Lachlan finds himself on the brink of death, Lark offers a deal: she will help him find the killer, and he will regain his freedom. But there is a condition - they must marry. In this game, victory will go not to the one who is stronger, but to the one who chooses to trust… and does not get a knife in the back. Because love is not always salvation. Sometimes it is a sentence.
