Violet’s life was never her own—her father’s crushing debt made sure of that. But when the debt collector comes to carve a payment from her body, she takes a desperate deal: become a servant and spy on the mysterious and tyrannical Lord Cain, the ruler of her Werewolf district.
There’s just one catch: Lord Cain permits only male servants in his house.

Disguised as a boy, Violet cuts her hair, flattens her chest, and dons a voice-altering band to pull off the deception. Everything is going according to plan—until Cain, a man known for his cold and unwavering authority, starts to take a peculiar interest in her.

Violet’s disguise becomes a prison of its own as she battles her own growing attraction to him. But this is no love story. Cain’s obsession to her is dangerous. Beneath cold allure lies a darkness Violet can’t ignore, a mind fractured by years of affliction by a curse.

A curse made by Violet's biological mother: A powerful witch.

"TAKE IT OFF!"

Violet’s knees nearly buckled at the thunderous command, her chest tightening with panic. The raw anger in Cain’s voice was as sharp as a blade.

"My lord! I-I’m a man!" she stammered, gripping her shirt tightly, her fingers trembling as they clung to the fabric.

"I don't like other men!" she cried, a desperate plea in her voice since the second she took her shirt off and he discovered that she was a woman was the moment she died. Painfully.

Cain’s glare was unyielding, his voice dropping into a growl. "Don’t insult me, You think I do. You kissed me!"

Her breath hitched as he stepped closer, his presence suffocating. "If you don’t take it off," he said, his tone low and dangerous, "I’ll rip it off myself."

Violet’s mind raced, panic threatening to overwhelm her. She couldn’t let him find out—he’d kill her. Painfully.
Glancing away to avoid his gaze when she caught the undeniable bulge in his trousers. Heat flushed her face, her thoughts spinning in desperation at the only idea she could think of to make him back off.

'This has to work. It has to!'

Mated to the Mad Lord

The second Cain stepped out, the first thing he did was try to settle the expression on his face as he adjusted his shirt and pants to ensure that nothing was amiss. Ignoring Frank, who stood by the door waiting for him, Cain headed right past him towards the stairs.

Apart from the bow Frank offered the second he saw Cain step out, he didn't open his mouth to speak as he followed behind Cain without attempting to strike up a conversation, knowing better than to do so after catching a hint of anger on Cain's face as he stepped out. Know your place, Frank! he thought to himself, aware that all he had to do was diligently serve and nothing more.

With Frank walking behind him, the servants around them parted to make way the moment Cain remotely came close to them, bowing their heads to show their respect as he walked past. Cain didn't spare them a glance, almost as though their entire existence wasn't worth noting, as he headed out the main entrance of the mansion.

Escaping?
