Riot |StudXStud|

Riot was built for one purpose.

Protect Synner.

As the most feared enforcer in the criminal underworld and the General of the Synner Empire, she's spent years becoming the perfect weapon cold, calculating, and ruthless. Every decision she makes is measured. Every move is flawless.

She doesn't make mistakes.

Until the day Synner steps in front of a bullet meant for her.

For the first time in her life, Riot fails.

While Synner fights for her life, the empire refuses to stop turning. Enemies sense weakness. Old lovers resurface with unfinished business. Families long buried beneath blood and betrayal come looking for revenge. Every rival wants the throne. Every traitor wants her head.

And everyone is waiting to see if the empire falls without its Queen.

So Riot does what she's always done.

She carries the weight.

She runs the empire. She protects Saint the woman that stole both her and Synner's heart. She continues to take care of three-year-old Luz, the little girl who doesn't understand why her Mama won't wake up. She hunts traitors, crushes rebellions, and fights a war on every front while drowning in the one thing she's never known how to survive.

Guilt.

Because no matter how many enemies she kills...

No matter how many kingdoms she burns...

None of it changes the truth.

The bullet was meant for her.

And if Synner dies...

Riot will never forgive herself.

Power built the empire.

Loyalty will decide who survives it.
