The Candidates Creed
By Migsfiend
"He was never meant to be the heir. He was meant to be free. But blood has a way of pulling you back."
Kael Damaris was raised in comfort-but never in luxury. Disciplined, intelligent, and broken in ways no one ever saw, he was the son of a woman who defied the rules and a man who vanished into war. Labeled as a failure, a dropout, and a disappointment, Kael carves his own path through business, heartbreak, and rebellion.
But in the shadows of the Damaris bloodline, the family's ancient tradition lives on: every generation, a Flag Bearer must rise-a chosen heir to carry the family name, power, and legacy.
Kael never asked to be a candidate. But fate, secrets, and blood have already written his name into the creed.
Now, with a rising business, a complicated past, and a burning desire to prove himself, Kael must face a legacy he never wanted...
...or let it destroy him.
