An innocent soul. A ruthless psycho. And the lie that bound them together.
To the world, he is a ghost. A terrifying myth. A cold-blooded underworld don born into ancient old-money wealth and dark family legacies that rule the city from the shadows. He is a man who knows no mercy, handles every threat with lethal precision, and leaves a trail of blood wherever he goes.
But to her? He is just her sweet, protective, slightly quiet husband.
Their story started the night she found him bleeding in an alley. As a dedicated schoolteacher with a heart too pure for her own good, she didn't see a monster-she just saw a man who needed help. She saved his life, thinking it was a simple act of kindness. She had no idea that the moment she touched him, his dark, obsessive mind snapped.
He didn't just want her. He had to own her.
To capture his angel, the devil built a perfect cage of lies. He put on a mask of gentleness, playing the part of the doting husband she deserved. For months, she lived in blissful ignorance, sheltered from the horrific reality of his true identity and the violent cases tracking his every move.
But secrets born in blood can't stay buried forever.
When old enemies close in and the shadows of his family's dark legacy finally breach their front door, the devil's mask is torn away. The sweet husband vanishes, leaving behind the ruthless psycho who will slaughter anyone in his path.
Faced with the blood on his hands and the chilling truth of who she actually married, the angel is forced to make a choice. When the illusion shatters, will she run from the monster-or will she stay and rule the underworld by his side?
Married to the devil.
