"An eye for an eye," I told myself every night as I dreamed of his death. He was the monster who had ruined my life, the devil in every nightmare.
But now, he stands before me, alive, no longer cursed, and all I can feel is the heat of his gaze, stripping me bare. I wanted to end him... but now, it feels like he's already ended me.”

In the Kingdom of Rivera,  Kaden, the ruthless crowned alpha Prince, lay cursed in eternal slumber. Lily, a servant girl with a hidden past, arrived on a mission of vengeance, seeking to kill the monster who slaughtered her family and destroyed her colony. But when she touched him, the curse was broken. Instead of death, Kaden offered her a shocking proposal: become his mate and bear his heirs. Now, Lily is bound to her enemy, torn between the desire that burns within her and the revenge that fuels her soul. Will she succumb to the darkness that haunts them both, or will her thirst for vengeance consume him... and herself?

Lily tossed her a sharp glare, her dark hair bouncing with each step. "And leave the task to you? The same Elena who cried last week because a man didn't call her 'lady'? Oh, yes, she'll respect you."

Elena's cheeks flushed a deep crimson. "I didn't cry. It was—dust in my eyes."

"Of course it was." Lily shot her a smirk, but her expression hardened when she noticed Elena edging closer to her. "Stay back."
