MENTIONS OF SUICIDE, BLOOD, DEATH, AND MENTAL ILLNESSES.

She was a pawn in a world of wealth and power. Born into a family that was meant to be her protector, she became instead a victim of betrayal, of cruelty, of a father who considered her disposable. When her mother finally found the strength to leave, she believed she was free. But the past pulls people back.

Now in her twenties, she must strike an untenable bargain: marry the son of a powerful CEO to retain her father's business empire in exchange for the one thing that matters in her ailing mother's life. She does not want to play his game, but she cannot help herself.

Driven by her own fury and haunted by memories that feel like half-truths, she steps into a world where wealth conceals deception, love is a battlefield, and the past refuses to rest. Her goal is to simply tear down her father's empire from the inside, dismantling the legacy built on pain and betrayal. She must earn his trust and make him feel the suffering she once endured. But then, he enters the picture.

Her fiancé-effortlessly kind, disarmingly warm, everything she isn't. He comes from a family overflowing with love, a life she was never allowed to imagine, a kind of affection she doesn't understand. She doesn't trust him. She won't. But as circumstances force them together, the walls she's spent years fortifying begin to crumble. She tells herself she can't falter. She must hate him.
