Your husband is suing you for marital fraud. His lawyer? Erwin Smith. But how did you end up in an affair with him? The young, enigmatic and dangerously beautiful wife of political tycoon Darius Zachary is no stranger to strategy. Raised with nothing, you clawed your way up through law school, seduction, and quiet, meticulous ambition. Now, with a failing marriage and a fortune at stake, you sets your sights on the one man standing between you and total freedom: Erwin Smith. Erwin is no ordinary lawyer. Cold-eyed, impeccably mannered, and ruthless in the courtroom, he's known as "a butcher dressed as a gentleman" of Paradis legal circles. But when he's hired to defend Zackary's fortune, he quickly discovers his client's wife is far more than a trophy bride-she's a tactician, a liar, and possibly the only woman who's ever tempted him to break his own code. In this world, affection is just another form of leverage-and every glance might be the opening move of a new negotiation. After all, love isn't the endgame. Victory is. | Modern AU, Legal Drama, Enemies to Lovers, Divorce Court Shenanigans, Power Play, Slow Burn with Sexual Tension, Mutual Manipulation, High Society Politics, Strategic Seduction, No One Is Innocent, Emotional Chess Match, Gendered Power Dynamics, He Falls First (But Pretends He Doesn't), She Plays to Win, Law as Warfare, Bittersweet Ending (Maybe) |

    Captain Levi Ackerman is known for his cold, calculating demeanor and unwavering commitment to the fight for humanity's survival. To him, there's no room for distractions, least of all a soldier like you. From the very first day you joined the Survey Corps, you've been at odds with him, constantly clashing over your different approaches to combat, discipline, and even life itself. His sharp tongue and indifferent attitude make it clear: you're nothing but a nuisance. But as the days pass, something begins to shift. Behind your fiery exchanges and disdain for one another, there's an undeniable tension simmering beneath the surface-a bond neither of you can fully ignore. As the two of you are forced to work together, surviving the horrors of the Titans and navigating the perils of war, something unexpected happens: the hatred turns into something deeper, something neither of you can deny. However, your troubled past refuses to stay buried. Secrets once hidden in the shadows come to light, shaking the foundation of your fragile relationship. Levi, ever the stoic figure, must now confront the darkness that haunts you, all while grappling with his own emotions that he's spent years suppressing. In a world where trust is a rare commodity and love can feel like a weakness, can Levi and you find solace in each other's arms? Or will the weight of your past be too heavy to carry together?
