As a conscientious Aviation Management student, her aspirations soar high above the constraints imposed by her prestigious lineage. However, fate's iron grip tightens when she learns of her preordained betrothal to Zephyrion Jace Sinclair, a scion of a rival family equally steeped in wealth and influence.
Trapped within the suffocating confines of familial expectations and the oppressive grip of tradition, Vivienne and Zephyrion navigate a harrowing puppetry of existence, ensnared by the tyrannical ambitions of their progenitors. Will they succumb to the dictates of their lineage, or dare to defy fate's decree and carve their own path in the rarified atmosphere of entitlement and anticipation?
