Growing up in their sister's shadow wasn't easy; surviving after she left has been harder. In the nine years since their Kingdom was destroyed by the cruel Falcondar family, Kiridan has had two objectives: to stay hidden from the Falcondars, and to figure out why their sister never came back for them. They discover that she started an underground organization to overthrow the Falcondars...and then died three years ago while on a mission in the mountains. Determined to make something of their sister's efforts - and to be recognized as more than the less-talented sibling - Kiridan decides to break into the organization known as the Infernal Uprising, taking their rightful place among its leadership. But as the attack on the Falcondars draws nearer, they'll have to learn that leadership is more than barking orders, and that trust is difficult to earn. When the chaos spirals further than anyone expected, and new powers come into play from every direction, a lot of people may have to reevaluate what they stand for...whether they're an Infernal Uprising soldier, a traitor, or a Falcondar Princess herself. Sure, through the eyes of those in power, the world has always been in conflict. But for the next generation waiting to take over, the conflict is just beginning. And for the rest of the unsuspecting universe, it hasn't even begun. Which came first, the catastrophe or the change? And what's the difference in the first place? ******* ONGOING.

Cunning, ruthless, and always ten steps ahead, she has built her own legacy in the shadows of her father's empire. But when a fragile peace is threatened by betrayal, she is forced into a marriage with the one man she despises most-Eyaan Reya, the heir to the Reya cartel and her family's sworn enemy. Eyaan is as lethal as he is untouchable, a man who rules with power and precision. For him, marriage is just another contract, a necessary move in a game of survival. But Inaya refuses to be just another pawn. She will fight, she will challenge, and she will never surrender-even if it means waging war against the man she now calls her husband. As past secrets unravel and dangerous enemies lurk in the dark, their forced alliance turns into a deadly game of power, deception, and desire. In a world where love is weakness and trust is a luxury, they must decide: will they destroy each other first, or will the fire between them burn the whole empire down? In this marriage, there are no vows-only survival.
