Synopsis:
Power. Blood. Vengeance. The Moritto empire wasn't built on kindness-it was carved from cruelty and crowned in crimson.
Xander Moritto-The Crimson King. Feared. Relentless. Bound by legacy and vengeance. When a brutal attack leaves his men slaughtered and his family's most prized heirloom missing, Xander doesn't rest until the whispers in the underworld lead him to a single name-one that vanishes as quickly as it appears.
But before he can strike, another war ignites. His engagement.
Elena Ahmed wants nothing to do with the Moritto crown-or its king. But when the past she buried comes calling and one desperate choice seals her fate, she finds herself trapped in a forced marriage to the very man she swore to hate.
Xander wants her loyalty. Her signature. Her silence.
Elena gives him everything-except submission.
As violence escalates and enemies draw closer, so does the tension between them. In the shadows of a blood-soaked empire, attraction turns to obsession. Rage becomes protection. And hate?
Hate burns into something far more dangerous.
But neither of them knows the truth hiding in plain sight.
Because in this world, nothing is as it seems.
And the person who holds your heart...
...can be the one who destroys your soul.
