The Husband I Scorned Is a Sea God
A god hides in plain sight, then disappears.
Dylan surfaces from ancient sleep bound by a life debt to the man who woke him. The cost is five years married to the benefactor's granddaughter, Ella, with his divinity concealed. He moves through her world as an unremarkable spouse, quietly dismantling every threat to her ascent toward the chief executive seat. She treats his presence as an inconvenience, never guessing the tide-turning force beside her. When the term ends, he slips back into the deep, leaving her to face the magnitude of what she overlooked.
