    Summary

    “You assume I mean you harm…” he utters softly.

    And just like that, the stern, rigid scowl is instantly wiped off your face.

    The man in the truck sounds…

    …sad.

    Not offended. Nor angered by your thinly-veiled implication.

    Just sad. Dispirited, even. As if it’s only just occurred to him that you might have perceived him as a threat.

    Summary

    "Then I am to be wed to..." Paul starts, but his sentence is interrupted by a choking of his own saliva - rage boils within.
    wed, to one of those monsters from Geidi Prime? Anger, hatred; It wars within him, turning up his stomach and burning the bile that rises.

    Yes, he's always expected to marry out of convenience, out of strategy. He learned from a young age that marriage is not about love - but to be wed to... to...

    "A Harkkonen?" He spits. Paul meets his father's eyes, and they warn him.

    Don't push it. What's done is done.

     

    or

    after the fall of the once-great House, the lone surviving daughter of Duke Bourbon is ordered to leave her betrothal to the na-Baron Harkonnen for the heir of House Atreides.

    slow-burn (kind-of-enemies/strangers to lovers).

    At the end of despair, when all hope has faded, a woman facing the last moments of her life finds the will to survive rekindled by one whose kind robbed her of it to begin with. Now she must decide which evil is the lesser: stay with the beast, or risk worse by leaving him. She soon finds that the horrors she faced in Isengard were not reserved for those in the breeding pits alone.
