Ruthless By Rumor

In a world torn by war between humans and demons, Inarious, a skilled demon hunter and adopted son of the ruthless Tokawa Yamamoto, is captured and brought to the palace of the feared Demon King, Vaeris. Known for his merciless reputation, Vaeris surprises Inarious with his warmth, compassion, and unexpected kindness. As the two men share tense yet intimate moments, Inarious begins to question his loyalty to his father and the lies that have fueled the conflict.
Through shared battles, heartfelt conversations, and growing trust, Inarious uncovers the truth about the war, Tokawa's treachery and his framing of the demons for the death of the human king. Struggling with his own internal conflict, Inarious must choose between returning to his father and the life he's always known or staying with Vaeris, who offers him a chance at peace and a new path forward.
As their bond deepens, the line between captor and companion blurs, challenging both men to face their pasts, their desires, and the future of their people. But when old loyalties resurface and new enemies emerge, Inarious and Vaeris must fight not only for their survival but for the fragile connection that could change the fate of their warring worlds.
