To prevent an all-out war between humans and demons, Princess Evelyne of Solmere is forced to marry Demon King Azrael, the ruthless ruler of the Underworld. Their union is meant to bring peace, but instead, it sparks a battle of wills. Evelyne despises him for his cruelty, while Azrael sees her as a mere pawn.

But as dark secrets unravel, she realizes that the true enemy lurks in the shadows—someone who wants both the human and demon realms to burn. Caught between betrayal and forbidden passion, Evelyne must decide: Will she fight against the Demon King or stand by his side to save their world?

Love and war have never been more dangerous

The silence in the chamber stretched, thick with unspoken truths.

Evelyne's heartbeat pounded in her ears as Azrael's words settled in.

Varian exhaled sharply, his grip tightening on his sword. "That thing called her a sacrifice. Are we just going to ignore that?"

Azrael's golden eyes remained locked on Evelyne, unreadable. "No. We are not."

Evelyne swallowed. "What does it mean? A sacrifice for what?"

Azrael was silent for a moment, his jaw tight. Then he turned, striding toward the exit of the chamber. "We need answers."

Evelyne didn't hesitate to follow, though every step she took felt heavier than the last. Varian moved beside her, his usual sharp demeanor edged with concern.
