Corrupted by You

Corrupted by You is a standalone in the Sins of Montardor series by Marzy Opal.

Synopsis

The king of Montardor's underworld has met his match in the one woman he should stay away from...

Darla

Ever since I was a young girl, I've lived under the scrutiny of Montardor's elite society and played by every one of my mother's rules until I became the quintessential daughter.

Then she sold me to the highest bidder.

Montardor's Punisher. My very own Hades...and my soon-to-be husband.

Zeno Gianni De la Croix is the devil in disguise.

He's older, cunning, and completely irresistible. He deceived me one fateful night and now I'm utterly captivated.

And I hate him.

Or at least, I want to.

The city of Montardor is Zeno's personal chess board and he will stop at nothing to make me his queen.

Zeno

My role has been clear from the start. Heir to an empire of sin and bloodshed, my destiny is tied with becoming the next Seigneur De la Croix.

But in order to assume the throne, I need a wife.

The woman who consumes my every thought is the one woman I should stay away from.

Darla Ivy Hill. Principal of St. Victoria. Daughter of my enemy. My very own Persephone...and my soon-to-be wife.

I hate that I want her.

My little angel likes to play wicked games but she has no idea what kind of monster lies within me.

I will possess her.

I will corrupt her.

And I will burn down the whole world for her.

Review

So, let's just start with Marzy's dedication page🔥:

"For all the queens who wanted a dark villain that would burn down the world for them..."

This book definitely had Hades and Persephone vibes and I loved it.

I owned every breadth of her being and I would keep her soul in the underworld with me forever.

Darla is a principal at an elite school, a secret romance author, and a strong woman championing young girls to be the future leaders of tomorrow. The part she has had to play in this elite society and with her strict mother's rules, she has been formed into someone who barely see her own beauty. When she gets dragged out by her friends, she meets Zeno. Zeno is the punisher to his families enemies and the next Seigneur De la Croix. These two meeting leads to straight 🔥🔥🔥!!

After only one night together, Zeno knows he will do anything to possess her, so he finds a way to make Darla his wife.

"I'd welcome Darla to the dark side and show her that the underworld had a special throne for a sweet little angel with a feisty side."

Don't get me wrong, Zeno is definitely a villain, but he's Darla's villain.

""Behind closed doors, you will always be my pretty little whore and my pet. But in front of the world, I will always treat you with the respect a queen deserves, Darla." Be still my heart."

Notable Highlights

You look like an angel wrapped in sin and I want to unravel you, Darla.

"I want to corrupt you, mon ange."

She was everything soft and innocent while I was everything hard and immoral. Our stark differences magnified.

Every king needed a queen and Darla Hill would be mine.

Zeno Gianna De la Croix seemed like the kind of man who would burn down the world for you.

"Never knew mouthy virgins would be my taste. But here I am, picturing you spread over the hood of my car, taking my cock like a good fucking girl."

"How much did you see, Don?" Usually a man of few words, he jested, "The part where she slapped you, tried to stab you, and then brought you to your knees all under ten minutes. Though I have to say, I wasn't expecting you to propose to her or for her to say yes."

"I met her at a sex club. She called me her master. I decided she was the love of my life..."

"Behind closed doors, you will always be my pretty little whore and my pet. But in front of the world, I will always treat you with the respect a queen deserves, Darla." Be still my heart.

I'd welcome Darla to the dark side and show her that the underworld had a special throne for a sweet little angel with a feisty side.

Little angel fluttered her wings and entered my kingdom, and I would not be bested by her charisma and haughty glances. Before the clock struck three, I'd claw her feathers, collar her throat, and show her the only position in which she could get atonement.

For all her act of not liking me, little angel was possessive of her devil.

He coaxed me to spread my thighs and they fell open like the pages of a book with a perfectly cracked spine.

Hundreds of men at his fingertips. Every resource imaginable at his disposal. Practically immortal in the eyes of the world. Yet it was my simple compliment that undid this man, proving once more that words were weapons with the power to destroy or build.

"Je suis ton mari. Je suis ton amant. Et je suis ton maitre."

"Ma petite salope..."

I used to believe happily ever afters were tied to sunsets and Prince Charmings. Mine was tied to moonlit nights and a dark villain who would burn the entire world for me.
