8 parts Ongoing Aria Rosalyn and Auren Valtor were born into two powerful, rival dynasties-families with centuries of hatred buried beneath silk-lined alliances and blood-stained contracts.
To secure a merger that would shake the empire, their parents arranged a business marriage neither of them wanted.
Auren Valtor, the unpredictable and cold-hearted heir of House Valtor, saw Aria as nothing more than a bargaining chip-another pawn to sacrifice in his game of revenge.
Aria Rosalyn, elegant yet overlooked, had always been treated as a tool by her family-a silent puppet dressed in grace.
But the deeper they fall into this twisted marriage of power, betrayal, and desire... the harder it becomes to tell who's using who.
Because somewhere between cold wars and candlelit nights, everything begins to change.
