Don't Be a Tease, Mr. Blackwood

[Marriage Before Love + Doting, Flirtatious & Charming Male Lead] The night Sophie Shaw decided to elope with Damian Morgan, she waited miserably in the rain for eight hours. She did not get to meet Damian. Instead, it was Alaric Blackwood who found her at the station and forcibly took the drenched girl away. “He is getting married to my childhood sweetheart.” The man's cold words instantly plunged her into an endless hell. “You have two choices now: marry me, and you will get money and the title of Mrs. Blackwood; or you can choose to become the laughingstock of the entire Kingsport Circle.” With no other choice, Sophie married him. After their marriage, with cars, houses, and unlimited credit cards, Alaric never shortchanged her financially. Not to mention his toned waist and eight-pack abs, and the way he would coax her with seductive whispers every night... She had always believed that Alaric married her as revenge for his childhood sweetheart marrying another man, and that their marriage was merely a loveless union of convenience. Later, the man gripped her slender waist, pulling her into his embrace. “What childhood sweetheart? I've only ever had one 'white moonlight'.” — Description from novelcodex.org
