23 parts Ongoing A story of love that dared to exist between two powers built to destroy.
Zaira Corvoni - the city's silent queen - built her empire from ashes and blood. She swore never to bow, never to love, and never to forgive the Rinaldi name.
But fate doesn't play fair.
Kael Rinaldi - the heir she should've hated - wears vengeance like a crown. Cold, calculated, and dangerously quiet, he was born from the same fire that killed her father. And when Zaira's bullet ended his bloodline, Kael didn't mourn.
He rose.
Now bound by a marriage built on power, promises, and poison, two enemies fight a war that feels too much like love.
But the real war isn't between them-
It's inside them.
Because some loves don't heal you. They hollow you out - quietly, beautifully, completely.
