45 parts Complete MatureThey were born in rival empires-raised to despise each other. But fate, money, and power never ask for permission.
Liana Velmond is untamed fire-twenty, wild-hearted, dangerously loyal, and hopelessly in love with a man her parents could never accept. Her world is built on rebellion and soft skin wrapped in hard armor. But when her powerful family locks her into an arranged engagement, everything she wants shatters.
She's to marry Kael Arden-the cold heir of their allies, the silent wolf in an all-black suit who keeps his scars hidden behind ruthless focus and unreadable eyes. At twenty-two, Kael is consumed by work, darkness, and quiet power. He never wanted a wife. But now he has Liana-untouchable, unwilling, and full of fire.
He doesn't chase. She doesn't bow.
What starts as an empty engagement becomes a dangerous game. From stiff meetings to glamorized galas, tension coils and boundaries blur. Lust rises. Glances linger. Secrets sharpen.
But Liana is still seeing her forbidden lover.
And Kael is far more dangerous than anyone truly knows.
In a world where love is a liability and loyalty is bought with blood, their slow-burn chemistry threatens to ignite everything around them.
He was supposed to be a name on paper.
She was supposed to obey.
But now they're Tethered by Fire-and falling might be the most dangerous thing they'll ever do.
