( First Prize in the best title and best writing style 🏆 ) MARRIED TO RUIN, DARK DEVOTION BOOK - 1. ❝He married her to ruin her... but never expected to lose himself in the chaos.❞ Kim Y/N is not just a name - she's a brand. A force. The dazzling CEO of Élysian Couture, she built an empire of elegance, dominance, and grace. To the world, she's untouchable - an icon of beauty and brains. But behind those high walls and crimson lips lies a woman suffocating under the weight of expectations, haunted by betrayal, and still healing wounds that no amount of success could hide. Jeon Jungkook walks in shadows - not just a businessman, but the enigmatic and feared Underworld criminal whose name brings silence to every room. Years ago, he lost everything - his company, his power, and his pride - all because of one man. Kim Dae-Hyun. Y/N's father. So, he waited. Planned. Built his empire from the ashes of his downfall. And now, he's ready to strike - not with bullets or blades, but with the ultimate move: a marriage contract. One she never saw coming. To the world, their marriage is shocking yet picture-perfect. But behind closed doors, it's a battlefield - a twisted game of cold stares, buried pain, subtle seduction, and dangerous secrets. Y/N wants to hate him. Needs to. But something about him-his guarded eyes, the way he touches pain like he knows it too well-starts pulling her into a storm she isn't ready for. And Jungkook? He tells himself she's just the means to an end. A pawn in his plan. But her fire... her defiance... her broken beauty... It starts to burn through every wall he ever built. She was never meant to matter. He was never supposed to feel. Now, they're tangled in a war of hate, temptation, and history. But in a world where love feels like betrayal and revenge feels like salvation-what happens when the lines blur? Will she become his greatest weakness? Or will he become the ruin she never saw coming? GRAPHICS by @apxcalypse.
