"Power is the disease. Desire is the cure." †♪ In a city veiled in frost and decadence, where crystal clinks over corruption and silk hides scars that never heal, two names slice through the silence like a scalpel through flesh- Rudhvik Jorovik Jeledov, the cold-blooded heir of a blood-stained empire, and Dr. Ruhanika, Moscow's most feared and famed dental surgeon, wrapped in ivory and iron. Bound by a contract no one dares speak of and haunted by histories that reek of old money, old wounds, and older sins- theirs is not a romance. It is a reckoning. An oath sharpened at the altar of ambition. He speaks in silence. She cuts with words. Every glance is a threat. Every touch, a war. And somewhere between chandeliers and secrets... something is watching. As danger coils around them like perfume in velvet halls, the line between enemy and obsession begins to blur. In a world where even love has a price- what will they sacrifice for control... and what will they destroy to keep it? .⁠｡⁠*⁠♡ "Sanguine vinculum. Lux in tenebris."
