Alaric Vitale has lived a life shaped by loss, anger, and power. After the brutal death of his parents, he became cold, ruthless, and untouchable - finding purpose only in the empire he built and the city he controls.
Everything begins to shift the night he saves Jasper Kingston.
Jasper Kingston is an over-thinker by nature - brilliant, intensely reserved, and achingly self-aware. A college student who hides his rare violet eyes behind books and dark lenses, avoiding attention at all costs. But one fateful encounter leaves him exposed in ways he never anticipated, tethering his life to a man he was never meant to meet.
Alaric commands fear.
Jasper refuses to kneel before it.
As an undeniable attraction draws them closer, secrets unravel - including a past they unknowingly share, bound by blood, betrayal, and a common enemy. With a world built on violence closing in, they must decide:
Will they risk everything for a connection neither of them can escape...
or let their worlds remain forever divided?
