βShe was the love he lost.
β
βNow he has returned to destroy the kingdom that betrayed him and took her away from him.
β
βBut some wounds never heal...
βAnd some scars never truly fade.
β
βShe should have hated him for everything.
β
And βmaybe she did.
β
βBut perhaps hatred had never been enough to erase the past between them.
β
βTrapped between love, revenge, grief, and the ruins of everything they once knew,
Seraya and Druvhan must face the truth: can love survive the secrets of the past,
or will vengeance destroy them both?

PROLOGUE
"Do you hate me that much?" Druvhan asked, his voice dropping into a low, dangerous whisper as he stepped closer.
"I would rather die than be your Queen!" she spat, her voice shaking with absolute disgust.
A bitter, unreadable smile cut through his hardened expression. "This clearly shows your hatred. I like it."
"I despise you to the depth of my soul!" Seraya screamed, the walls echoing with her raw desperation. "Go to hell, Druvhan!"
He didn't flinch. He only leaned down until his breath brushed her cheek.
"But I've already been to hell, Raya," he murmured darkly. "And trust me... it is the only place I ever found peace."
"You will never find peace!" she wept, her eyes filled with cold, unyielding contempt.
"Not after what you have done. You are a heartless monster!"
"Call me whatever you want, Raya." Druvhan gripped her chin, forcing her to look into the stone cold eyes of the man he had become. "But I assure you, I am never letting you go this time.
And do not even dare killing yourself... because I am willing to bring that soul of yours back to me, even from the very depths of hell."
