He demands unquestionable devotion; she demands the truth. In a game where betrayal is currency, can two broken souls learn to trust or will their pasts destroy them first?

He built an empire out of ashes, burying every trace of emotion beneath cold walls of steel and power. She grew up in a world that never valued her, carrying wounds that no one could see.
