A tale of forbidden love, fractured legacies, and the empire they were never meant to build together.
---
Heirs to warring empires. Bound by blood. Torn by betrayal.
Tajiro Oziel Perez was never meant to lead.
But when his older brother was assassinated, Tajiro inherited not just the empire-but the ghosts that came with it. With his grandfather's iron-fisted legacy on his back and revenge in his blood, Tajiro walks the line between boardrooms and back alleys, keeping his enemies close... and his scars closer.
Seraphina Auphelia Marquez was raised to destroy the name that destroyed hers.
The sole survivor of a car crash that claimed her parents-an "accident" she knows was no accident-Seraphina returns to the city not just to claim her rightful place, but to bring down the very empire Tajiro now rules.
They meet by chance at a party neither of them should have attended.
An argument. A spark. A slow-burning war.
Neither knows who the other is-until it's far too late.
As tension crackles and secrets unravel, Tajiro and Seraphina are drawn into a love as dangerous as the blood feud between their families. But when betrayal strikes from within, when lies become knives, and loyalty demands blood, they'll be forced to choose:
Family... or each other?
