The only way to survive on the streets of Ifmor is to align yourself with one of the three houses: House of Mirth concerns itself with entertainment, a house full of dancers, musicians, as well as gladiators and prostitutes. House of Steel makes the finest warriors, mercenaries, and brutal assassins. Irri - desperate to escape a life of desperate poverty joins the House of Hand - the most devious thieves and spymasters.
When she realizes that the world is cruel and dangerous even with protection from her House Lord, Irri concocts a new plan - to bring the houses together under one roof and one ruler - herself. The throne is hers if she can play her cards right. And an alliance with the cruel, cold 2nd-in-command of House of Steel, known by all as the Reaper, could help solidify her chances.
But when the duo starts to fall for each other, Irri fears she's losing sight of her overall goal and getting swept into the Reaper's own plans for Ifmor.

His Ruthless Temptation
I saw her long before she saw me. She didn't know then that her fate had already been sealed, that every step she took was drawing her closer to me. Closer to what she would become. There was something in her-something fragile, something wild. A fear she tried to hide, wrapped in defiance and confidence. It was intoxicating, watching her, knowing that no one else could see what I saw. No one else could feel the pull like I did. The slow, deliberate unraveling of her world as it would soon be tethered to mine. I felt my heart beat once, hard and fast. It was the only signal I needed. She would be mine-not in some fleeting, hollow way. No. I would strip away every shield, every defense, until she was laid bare, body and soul. And when she looked at me for the first time, I knew. She was already mine. A. Trigger Warning ⚠️: This story contains intense and graphic content, exploring dark and disturbing themes that may be triggering for some readers.
